Synopsis

The most complete architecture reference available on the 80X86 microprocessor family, this reference manual describes the software architecture of the 80X86 processor extension family, including the 1486. Each family is described as a whole, and a detailed description is given for the advanced execution modes - the protected mode and virtual-86 mode. The book is intended to give support to readers as they write assembly language programs, debug programs using complex 80X86 instructions and dis-assemble "core dumps". Because the C language is used as a tool for describing the architecture, the ability to read simple C programs is a prerequisite to using this book.
