Assembly code from the book Programming form group up by Jonathan Bartlett includes code for each chapter.
The book follows AT&T dialect assembly.
You can use run-asm. sh
bash file to assemble, and link, both using the following suffix asm
, link
, all
./run-asm.sh chapter-10/integer-to-string.s asm
Chapter 1
Introduction to programming in general, defining what are machine code, assembly, and high-level language.
Chapter 2
Computer architecture, taking about CPU (ALU, registers, fetch-decode-execution cycle), RAM, data types, and address space.
Data accessing modes include the following:
Mode | Description |
---|---|
Immediate mode | mov $1, %eax |
Register addressing mode | instruction contains register to access |
Direct addressing mode | instruction contains the memory address to access |
Indexed addressing mode | instructions contain a memory address to access and specify an index register to offset that address |
Indirect addressing mode | instruction contains a register that includes a pointer to where the data should be accessed |
Base pointer addressing mode | similar to indirect addressing, but you also include a number called the offset to add to the register's value before using it for lookup |
Chapter 3
First, programming in the assembly includes existing status and how to assemble and link the code.
Chapter 4
Introduction to functions and programs like factorial and power.
Chapter 5
Dealing with files and I/O operations include: file descriptor, creating the file, open file for reading, writing, or appending.
Chapter 6
Records and how to read/write to records.
Chapter 7
Develop robust programs and handle errors in the program's flow.
Chapter 8
Libraries and how to link them.
Chapter 9
Dynamic memory allocates and deallocates.
