Basically for x86_64 you can use docs aimed at linux, modulo some
minor issues such as renumbering some syscalls.
Here are some I've found helpful:
This one is free and guaranteed fantastic:
https://yurichev.com/writings/UAL-EN.pdf
Not bad:
http://www.egr.unlv.edu/%7Eed/x86.html
Both NASM and YASM have very good docs on the actual
syntax. You can find some ok guides about translating
between intel and att syntax.
This one costs a little bit:
https://www.packtpub.com/application-development/mastering-assembly-programming
So does this one but it's pretty good:
https://rayseyfarth.com/asm/
I generally like supporting authors writing about less common but
fundamental programming areas, especially if I can sidestep Amazon.
HTH,
Russell
