Notes:

ROR rotates the bits within the destination operand to the right, where right is toward the least significant bit (LSB). A rotate is a shift (see SHL and SHR) that wraps around; the rightmost bit of the operand is shifted into the leftmost bit, and all intermediate bits are shifted one bit to the right. Except for the direction the shift operation takes, ROR is identical to ROL.

The number of bit positions shifted may be specified either as an 8-bit immediate value, or by the value in CL-not CX or ECX. (The 8086 and 8088 are limited to the immediate value 1.) Note that while CL may accept a value up to 255, it is meaningless to shift by any value larger than 16-or 32 in 32-bit mode-even though the shifts are actually performed on the 8086 and 8088. (The 286 and later limit the number of shift operations performed to the native word size except when running in Virtual 86 mode.)

The rightmost bit is copied into the Carry flag on each shift operation. OF is modified only by the shift-by-one forms of ROR; after shift-by-CL forms, OF becomes undefined.
