-Let's look at some code examples, considering the 32-bit version first.+Let's look at some code examples, considering the 32-bit version first. In all instructions, there is a MOD R/M byte and an SIB byte. MOD R/M is identical for all instructions. REG field indicates eax register and the combination of MOD and R/M indicates that registers are specified with the SIB byte.

 +And other examples for x64 processors. The SIB byte is extended with bits from the REX prefix. We'll start with the similar examples as shown for 32-bit machines.

 =====Displacement===== =====Displacement=====
 Displacement gives the offset for memory operands. Depending on the addressing mode, it can be the direct memory address or an additional offset added to the contents of the base, index register or both. Displacement can be 1, 2, or 4 bytes long. Some instructions allow using an 8-byte displacement. In these instructions, there is no immediate field. Displacement gives the offset for memory operands.
