Hi,

In Object dump of a 'C' object File, i came across the following instructions.

incl 0x8
mov 0x0,%eax
mov 0x4(%eax),%ebx


What does incl stand for?
-- I google'd for it and came to know that it is for incrementing the values present in a register like incl %eax.

But what does " incl 0x8 " mean?

Note that the instructions are in AT&T syntax.

Thanks in Advance
