Module dsl

Defines a domain-specific language (DSL) for describing x64 instructions.

This language is intended to be:

• compact–i.e., define an x64 instruction on a single line, and
• a close-to-direct mapping of what we read in the x64 reference manual.

Modules

format

A DSL for describing x64 instruction formats–the shape of the operands.

Structs

Features

A collection of CPU features.

Inst

An x64 instruction.

Opcodes

Describe an instruction’s opcodes. From section 2.1.2 “Opcodes” in the reference manual:

Prefixes

The allowed prefixes for an instruction. From the reference manual (section 2.1.1):

Rex

The traditional x64 encoding.

Enums

Encoding

Enumerate the ways x64 encodes instructions.

Feature

A CPU feature.

Group1Prefix

Group2Prefix

Contains the segment override prefixes or a (deprecated) branch hint when used on a Jcc instruction. Note that using the segment override prefixes on a branch instruction is reserved. See section 2.1.1, “Instruction Prefixes,” in the reference manual.

Group3Prefix

Contains the operand-size override prefix (0x66); also used as a SIMD prefix. From the reference manual:

Group4Prefix

Contains the address-size override prefix (0x67). From the reference manual:

Constants

ALL_FEATURES

List all CPU features.

Functions

inst

Abbreviated constructor for an x64 instruction.

rex

An abbreviated constructor for REX-encoded instructions.

vex

An abbreviated constructor for VEX-encoded instructions.
