FLAG OPERATION WITH THE BASIC INSTRUCTION SET
3.2.1
Status Flags
The status flags of the FLAGS register reflect conditions that result from a previous instruction or
instructions. The arithmetic instructions use OF, SF, ZF, AF, PF, and CF.
The SCAS (Scan String), CMPS (Compare String), and LOOP instructions use
ZF
to signal that their
operations are complete. The base architecture includes instructions
to
set, clear, and complement
CF
before execution of an arithmetic instruction. See figure
3-5
and tables
3-1
and
3-2.
3.2.2
Control Flags
The control flags of the FLAGS register determine processor operations for string instructions, maska-
ble interrupts, and debugging.
