Description

Description

When attempting to move a segment register, for instance ES into a 64-bit register using a REX prefix, the segment register is ignored.

Reference:
Ref. Intel 64 and IA-32 Architecture Software Developer's Manual Vol. 2B 4-35

Affected instructions:

0x488c00

NOTE: All combinations of prefixes and operands are omitted.

Reproduction guide

Instruction:

00000000  488C00            mov qword [rax],es

Input:

pyvex.IRSB("\x48\x8C\x00", 0x8048000, archinfo.ArchX86())

Observed output:

IRSB {
   t0:Ity_I64 t1:Ity_I64

   00 | ------ IMark(0x0, 3, 0) ------
   01 | t0 = GET:I64(rax)
   02 | STle(t0) = 0x0000
   NEXT: PUT(rip) = 0x0000000000000003; Ijk_Boring
}

Expected output:

IRSB {
   t0:Ity_I64 t1:Ity_I16

   00 | ------ IMark(0x0, 3, 0) ------
   01 | t0 = GET:I64(rax)
   01 | t1 = GET:I16(es)
   02 | STle(t0) = t1
   NEXT: PUT(rip) = 0x0000000000000003; Ijk_Boring
}
