jle汇编,关于AT& T语法汇编中的cmp / jg，jle等

So every single resource online tells me that something like this:

cmp %eax, %ebx

jg < something >

would jump to < something > if eax was greater than ebx. But I have another piece of code that seems to contradict this:

cmp $0x2, %eax

jg < something>

as it jumps to < something > when eax has the value 3.

Am I missing something, or does cmp a, b - jg execute if b > a and not a>b? And does this apply to other jump statements as well?

解决方案

When we read something like

cmp $0x2, %eax

jg < something >

we know the assembler used is one that reverses the position of the operands of an instruction. That's because Intel's syntax dictates that the destination operand comes before the source operand and clearly an immediate value like $0x2 can't ever be a destination!

Knowing the order of things we now interpret your first code snippet as

cmp ebx, eax

jg < something > ;jump if EBX > EAX

and the second code snippet as

cmp eax, 2

jg < something > ;jump if EAX > 2

And does this apply to other jump statements as well?

It does.
