passing arrays to functions in x86 asm
I'm learning x86 asm and using masm, and am trying to write a function which has the equivalent signature to the following c function:
void func(double a[], double b[], double c[], int len);
I'm not sure how to implement it?
The asm file will be compiled into a win32 DLL.
So that I can understand how to do this, can someone please translate this very simple function into asm for me:
void func(double a[], double b[], double c[], int开发者_如何学JAVA len)
{
// a, b, and c have the same length, given by len
for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
c[i] = a[i] + b[i];
}
I tried writing a function like this in C, compiling it, and looking at the corresponding disassembled code in the exe using OllyDbg but I couldn't even find my function in it.
Thank you kindly.
I haven't written x86 for a while but I can give you a general idea of how to do it. Since I don't have an assembler handy, this is written in notepad.
func proc a:DWORD, b:DWORD, c:DWORD, len:DWORD
mov eax, len
test eax, eax
jnz @f
ret
@@:
push ebx
push esi
xor eax, eax
mov esi, a
mov ebx, b
mov ecx, c
@@:
mov edx, dword ptr ds:[ebx+eax*4]
add edx, dword ptr ds:[ecx+eax*4]
mov [esi+eax*4], edx
cmp eax, len
jl @b
pop esi
pop ebx
ret
func endp
The above function conforms to stdcall and is approximately how you would translate to x86 if your arguments were integers. Unfortunately, you are using doubles. The loop would be the same but you'd need to use the FPU stack and opcodes for doing the arithmetic. I haven't used that for a while and couldn't remember the instructions off the top of my head unfortunately.
You have to pass the memory addresses of the arrays. Consider the following code:
.data?
array1 DWORD 4 DUP(?)
.code
main PROC
push LENGTHOF array1
push OFFSET array1
call arrayFunc
main ENDP
arrayFunc PROC
push ebp
mov ebp, esp
push edi
mov edi, [ebp+08h]
mov ecx, [ebp+0Ch]
L1:
;reference each element of given array by [edi]
;add "TYPE" *array* to edi to increment
loop L1:
pop edi
pop ebp
ret 8
arrayFunc ENDP
END main
I just wrote this code for you to understand the concept. I leave it to you to figure out how to properly figure the usage of registers in order to achieve your program's goals.
