MASM64 grammar reference

[Player1UK]

I've created a complete grammar reference document for MASM64:

Any corrections would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like you have done a lot of work there.

Thank you (and thank you for all your hard work, I started out learning assembly language using masm32 way back in 2000).

I posted a link because the document itself is continuously being updated, whilst I'm using it to create a visual development environment.

The next big change will be the gradual inclusion of all the 64-bit mnemonics.

[hutch--]

The mnemonic list will be appreciated by many people. One suggestion, try and bundle them as families as scouring through the Intel manuals is hard work for folks who are not used to them.

x86-64 Instruction Set reference:
https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?ithint=file,pdf&resid=2C18DFD7C47CC9A7%21624&authkey=%21ANTJqFkX5v3hdno

This contains all the general-purpose 64-bit instructions, excluding Cache, FPU, SIMD (MMX, SSE, AVX), FMA, and BMI instructions.
I have a separate document for Cache instructions, and a much larger (471 pages) document for all the 64-bit FPU MMX SSE AVX FMA BMI instructions.

Thank you. I need that.

When I try to unzip the file I get "need PK compat. v6.3 (can do v2.1)" from command line unzip. I can't remember when or where I got my zip/unzip from. I get the below if I just execute unzip. I will try to find a newer version later this morning. This is the first time I have had a problem with this one.

UnZip 5.51 of 22 May 2004, by Info-ZIP.  Maintained by C. Spieler.  Send
bug reports using http://www.info-zip.org/zip-bug.html; see README for details.

Usage: unzip [-Z] [-opts[modifiers]] file[.zip] [list] [-x xlist] [-d exdir]
  Default action is to extract files in list, except those in xlist, to exdir;
  file[.zip] may be a wildcard.  -Z => ZipInfo mode ("unzip -Z" for usage).

  -p  extract files to pipe, no messages     -l  list files (short format)
  -f  freshen existing files, create none    -t  test compressed archive data
  -u  update files, create if necessary      -z  display archive comment
  -x  exclude files that follow (in xlist)   -d  extract files into exdir

modifiers:                                   -q  quiet mode (-qq => quieter)
  -n  never overwrite existing files         -a  auto-convert any text files
  -o  overwrite files WITHOUT prompting      -aa treat ALL files as text
  -j  junk paths (do not make directories)   -v  be verbose/print version info
  -C  match filenames case-insensitively     -L  make (some) names lowercase
  -$  label removables (-$$ => fixed disks)  -V  retain VMS version numbers
  -X  restore ACLs (-XX => use privileges)   -s  spaces in filenames => '_'
                                             -M  pipe through "more" pager
Examples (see unzip.txt for more info):
  unzip data1 -x joe   => extract all files except joe from zipfile data1.zip
  unzip -fo foo ReadMe => quietly replace existing ReadMe if archive file newer

Sorry about that. Until just now, I didn't know that 7z would also unzip.

None of the links in the document seem to be valid anymore.

Strange. For me, they work:

These are all SSE2 - for other versions, see Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE2), SSE3 and SSE4, x86 complete 2014

Thank you. The links in your post work fine. In the document, when I click on a line, or copy and past the url, I have problem. The very first link is:

http://developer.intel.com/products/processor/manuals/index.htm

You can try it, and you may see what I am seeing.

Try this https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/technical/intel-sdm.html

Googling the link in your post, led me there, ahsat

Thank you. That is a large amount of documentation, more than I am use to. Hide a book in a library, type of documentation, it seems at a glance.

Definitely.
