In Section 3.6.8, we saw that a common way to implement switch statements is to create a set of code blocks and then index those blocks using a jump table. Consider

the C code shown in Figure 4.69 for a function switchv, along with associated test code.

Implement switchv in Y86-64 using a jump table. Although the Y86-64 instruction set does not include an indirect jump instruction, you can get the same effect by pushing a computed address onto the stack and then executing the ret instruction. Implement test code similar to what is shown in C to demonstrate that your implementation of switchv will handle both the cases handled explicitly as well as those that trigger the default case.
