The current JIT uses the following sequence to zero-extend into the
upper 32 bits of the destination register for BPF_LDX BPF_{B,H,W},
when the destination register is not on the stack:
EMIT3(0xC7, add_1reg(0xC0, dst_hi), 0);
The problem is that C7 /0 encodes a MOV instruction that requires a 4-byte
immediate; the current code emits only 1 byte of the immediate. This
means that the first 3 bytes of the next instruction will be treated as
the rest of the immediate, breaking the stream of instructions.
This patch fixes the problem by instead emitting "xor dst_hi,dst_hi"
to clear the upper 32 bits. This fixes the problem and is more efficient
than using MOV to load a zero immediate.
This bug may not be currently triggerable as BPF_REG_AX is the only
register not stored on the stack and the verifier uses it in a limited
way, and the verifier implements a zero-extension optimization. But the
JIT should avoid emitting incorrect encodings regardless.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
