Program Plan Intro

Load Effective Address:

  • The load effective address instruction “leaq” is a variant of “movq” instruction.
  • The instruction form reads memory to a register, but memory is not been referenced at all.
  • The first operand of instruction is a memory reference; the effective address is been copied to destination.
  • The pointers could be generated for later references of memory.
  • The common arithmetic operations could be described compactly using this instruction.
  • The operand in destination should be a register.

Data movement instructions:

  • The different instructions are been grouped as “instruction classes”.
  • The instructions in a class performs same operation but with different sizes of operand.
  • The “Mov” class denotes data movement instructions that copy data from a source location to a destination.
  • The class has 4 instructions that includes:
    • movb:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 1 byte data size.
    • movw: 
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 2 bytes data size.
    • movl:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 4 bytes data size.
    • movq:
      • It copies data from a source location to a destination.
      • It denotes an instruction that operates on 8 bytes data size.

Comparison Instruction:

  • The “CMP” instruction sets condition code according to differences of their two operands.
  • The working pattern is same as “SUB” instruction but it sets condition code without updating destinations.
  • The zero flag is been set if two operands are equal.
  • The ordering relations between operands could be determined using other flags.
  • The “cmpl” instruction compares values that are double word.

Unary and Binary Operations:

  • The details of unary operations includes:
    • The single operand functions as both source as well as destination.
    • It can either be a memory location or a register.
    • The instruction “incq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be incremented.
    • The instruction “decq” causes 8 byte element on stack top to be decremented.
  • The details of binary operations includes:
    • The first operand denotes the source.
    • The second operand works as both source as well as destination.
    • The first operand can either be an immediate value, memory location or register.
    • The second operand can either be a register or a memory location.

B.

Explanation of Solution

Rearranged ordering provides greater security:

  • In protected code, the local variables “v” is placed closer to stack top than “buf”...

(QI. 5.) Write a C++ class member function to print alternate nodes of the given Linked List, first from head to end, and then from end to head. If Linked List has even number of nodes, then function skips the node. (Example: Input: 1->2->3->4->5, output: 13553 1).
Problem 1. (RSA Library) Implement a library called rea.py that provides functions needed for developing the RSA cryp- tosystem. The library must support the following API: rsa generates and returns the public/private keys as a tuple (n, e, d), picking prime numbers p and q needed to generate the keys from the interval [1o, hi) encrypts x (int) using the public key (a, e) and returns the encrypted value decrypts y (int) using the private key (a, d) and returns the decrypted value returns the least number of bits needed to represent a returns the binary representation of a expressed in decimal, having the given width and padded with leading zeros returns the decimal representation of a expressed in binary keygen (lo, hi) евcrypt (x, a, е) decrypt (y, n, d) bitLength (n) dec2bin (n, width) bin2dec (n) > "/vorkspace/project4 $ python3 rsa.py S encrypt (S)- 1743 decrypt (1743) - s bitlength (83) - 7 dec2bin (83) - 1010011 bin2dec (1010011) - 83 Directions: 4 / 7 Project 4 (RSA…
[Problem description] Give the union of two ordered lists. The maximal number of elements in an inputted set is 30. [Basic requirements] 1) Use sequential linear list. 2) The result list should also be ordered. [Example] Problem: Give the union of the ordered lists (3,4,9,100,103) and (7,9,43,53,102,105). What you need to show in the terminal(the back part is outputted by you and the blue part is inputted by the user, i.e., teacher): Please input the first ordered list: (3,4,9,100,103)Please input the second ordered list: (7,9,43,53,102,105) The union is: (3,4,7,9,9,43,53,100,102,103,105)
