-----------
The cmp command is used to compare two memory areas. By default it works on
-four byte tuples. By appending .b, .w, .l, .q the size of the tuples is
-controlled:
+four byte (32-bit) values. By appending .b, .w, .l, .q the size of the
+values is controlled:
cmp.b
- compare 1 byte tuples
+ compare 1 byte (8-bit) values
cmp.w
- compare 2 byte tuples
+ compare 2 byte (16-bit) values
cmp.l
- compare 4 byte tuples
+ compare 4 byte (32-bit) values
cmp.q
- compare 8 byte tuples
+ compare 8 byte (64-bit) values
The parameters are used as follows:
