# Null-terminated vs size-prefixed ascii strings. # # By default we create strings with a 4-byte size prefix rather than a null suffix. # However we still need null-prefixed strings when interacting with the Linux # kernel in a few places. This layer implements a function for comparing # a null-terminated 'kernel string' with a size-prefixed 'SubX string'. # # To run: # $ bootstrap/bootstrap translate ex11.subx -o ex11 # $ bootstrap/bootstrap run ex11 # runs a series of tests # ...... # all tests pass # # (We can't yet run the tests when given a "test" commandline argument, # because checking for it would require the function being tested! Breakage # would cause tests to not run, rather than to fail as we'd like.) == code # instruction effective address register displacement immediate # . op subop mod rm32 base index scale r32 # . 1-3 bytes 3 bits 2 bits 3 bits 3 bits 3 bits 2 bits 2 bits 0/1/2/4 bytes 0/1/2/4 bytes Entry: # run all tests e8/call run-tests/disp32 # 'run-tests' is a function created automatically by SubX.
