I just want to read values that are currently in those registers Rax, rbx, rcx, rdx, rsp Rbp, rsi, rdi and print them out, thats it. Essentially all x86 chips released in the last decade from amd and intel support this isa In at&t syntax, the instruction Mov (%rax), %eax # at&t syntax or, equivalently in intel syntax
Mov eax, dword ptr [rax] Thus (%rax) means to get the value of the pointer currently stored in %rax What does the star decoration do on that Does that further dereference that value (thus (%rax) is itself a pointer) I'm having trouble googling *( assembly syntax This is x64 assembly generated from gcc 4.8 compiling c++ code.
