Struct tartan_arch::x86_common::FlagRegister

pub struct FlagRegister(/* private fields */);

Available on x86 or x86-64 only.

EFLAGS/RFLAGS: General flags, including control, status, and basic system flags.

Getters and setters for this structure only access a value in memory, not the register itself. Use the get and set methods to work with the actual register.

Implementations

impl FlagRegister

pub fn carry(&self) -> bool

CF: Indicates an arithmetic instruction generated a carry/borrow (unsigned overflow).

pub fn parity(&self) -> bool

PF: Indicates that the least-significant byte of the result has even parity.

pub fn aux_carry(&self) -> bool

AF: Indicates a carry/borrow/overflow out of bit 3 in binary-coded decimal (BCD) arithmetic.

pub fn zero(&self) -> bool

ZF: Indicates that the result of an instruction is zero.

pub fn sign(&self) -> bool

SF: Indicates that the most-significant bit of a result is 1.

pub fn trap(&self) -> bool

TF: Enable single-step debugging.

pub fn interrupt_enabled(&self) -> bool

IF: Enable non-maskable interrupts. Non-maskable interrupts are always enabled.

pub fn direction(&self) -> bool

DF: String instructions work on addresses high-to-low when set, low-to-high when clear.

pub fn signed_overflow(&self) -> bool

OF: Indicates that the result overflowed for signed arithmetic (carry/borrow for the second-most-significant bit).

pub fn io_privilege_level(&self) -> u8

IOPL: Sets the privilege threshold for a task to access I/O address space. Smaller numbers are higher privilege.

Individual I/O ports may still be accessible at lower privilege levels (greater numeric values) if allowed by IOPermissionBitmap for the current task.

pub fn nested_task(&self) -> bool

NT: Indicates that the processor should switch back to a parent task when it executes an IRET instruction.

Only supported in 32-bit mode. If this is set in 64-bit mode, IRET will trigger an exception.

impl FlagRegister

pub fn get() -> Self

Retrieve the current value of the EFLAGS register.

pub unsafe fn set(value: Self)

Update the EFLAGS register with the given value, as permission level allows.

Some flags will be unaffected depending on the processor mode and permission level flags. See the reference for the POPF instruction in the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual, volume 2.

Safety

Altering certain system flags can have dramatic effects on the execution of this and other programs, including memory safety. See volume 1 §3.4.3 (“EFLAGS Register”) and volume 3 §2.3 (“System Flags and Fields in the EFLAGS Register”) of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual.
