I am going to have my own Unix server set up and being on macOS I want to choose the OS that is most similar with terminal bash commands to macOS.

I started encountering differences with this command that makes me believe it isn't as easy as I would have assumed. brew install coreutils get you part of the way there but there seems to be other differences I wouldn't have guessed. What distro is closest for the command above?






bash osx

  • Asking about one specific command in my opinion is not opinion based. Having a broader scope of all commands certainly isn't narrow but again not opinion based.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
