"push %r8" is a two-byte insn (it needs REX prefix to specify R8), "push $0" is two-byte too. It seems just using the latter would be no worse. Thus, code had an unnecessary "xorq %r8,%r8" insn. It probably costs nothing in execution time here since we are probably limited by store bandwidth at this point, but still. Run-tested under QEMU: 32-bit calls still work: / # ./test_syscall_vdso32 [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via VDSO [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [NOTE] R11 has changed:0000000000200ed7 - assuming clobbered by SYSRET insn [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via INT 80 [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data [RUN] Running tests under ptrace [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via VDSO [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [NOTE] R11 has changed:0000000000200ed7 - assuming clobbered by SYSRET insn [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data [RUN] Executing 6-argument 32-bit syscall via INT 80 [OK] Arguments are preserved across syscall [OK] R8..R15 did not leak kernel data Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Acked-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: H.
