Closed bog-dan-ro closed 10 months ago

bog-dan-ro commented 1 year ago

As said in the title gidhra doesn't handle test registers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_register and https://retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/questions/21963/how-were-the-test-registers-used-on-the-i386-and-the-i486 )

Actually the decompiler used to support test registers but they were commented out here https://github.com/NationalSecurityAgency/ghidra/blob/master/Ghidra/Processors/x86/data/languages/ia.sinc#L3164
