Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tools/nolibc: x86-64: Use `mov $60,%eax` instead of `mov $60,%rax`
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2021 09:11:32 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211024015628.393550-2-ammarfaizi2@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211024020616.395038-1-ammarfaizi2@intel.com>
Note that mov to 32-bit register will zero extend to 64-bit register.
Thus `mov $60,%eax` has the same effect with `mov $60,%rax`. Use the
shorter opcode to achieve the same thing.
```
b8 3c 00 00 00 mov $60,%eax (5 bytes) [1]
48 c7 c0 3c 00 00 00 mov $60,%rax (7 bytes) [2]
```
Currently, we use [2]. Change it to [1] for shorter code.
