Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86_emulate: fix emulation of CMPXCHG
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2015 00:52:45 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150429005245.GA11901@gnote> (raw)

CMPXCHG sets CF, PF, AF, SF, and OF flags according to the results of the
comparison the rAX with the operand of the instruction.
rAX must be the first argument of the comparison (a minuend), the operand
must be the second one (a subtrahend).

Due to improper order of comparison arguments, CF, PF, AF, SF and OF flags were
set incorrectly in the case of inequality. Need to swap them.
