Sep 19, 2015 · In Linux terminology, i386 is the 32bit ISA, and amd64 is the 64bit ISA, also called x86-64. x86 is the superset, so x86-32 (i386) and x86-64 (amd64) are the two flavours of x86. …

Sep 13, 2010 · As each item is pushed onto the stack, the stack grows down. That is, the stack-pointer register is decremented by four (4) bytes (in 32-bit mode), and the item is copied to the …

Jul 1, 2019 · All registers (except the zero register) are general purpose so in theory any register can be a stack pointer, and the stack can grow in any direction the programmer wants. That …

The difference between the 8086/8088 and later x86 CPUs (starting with the 186) is the value pushed onto the stack if the stack pointer itself is pushed (PUSH SP): It used to be the value …

Jun 2, 2014 · The offset is negative because the stack grows downwards on x86. The next operation stores c in EAX: EAX is moved to ESI, cout is moved to EDI and then the insertion …

Nov 28, 2009 · What is the difference when the compiler allocates variables on the stack in x86 v x64 architectures? Say I have a function foo(){ int i = 5; i += 4; } how is this allocated on the stack
