The ZERO_CALL_USED_REGS feature may zero out caller-saved registers
before returning.
In spurious_kernel_fault(), the "pte_offset_kernel()" call results in
this assembly code:
.Ltmp151:
#APP
# ALT: oldnstr
.Ltmp152:
.Ltmp153:
.Ltmp154:

callq *pv_ops+536(%rip)

.Ltmp159:
.section .altinstructions,"a",@progbits
.Ltmp160:
.long .Ltmp152-.Ltmp160
.Ltmp161:
.long .Ltmp158-.Ltmp161
.short 33040
.byte .Ltmp159-.Ltmp152

.text
.section .altinstr_replacement,"ax",@progbits
# ALT: replacement 1
.Ltmp158:
movq %rdi, %rax
.Ltmp157:
.text
#NO_APP
.Ltmp162:
testb $-128, %dil
The "testb" here is using %dil, but the %rdi register was cleared before
returning from "callq *pv_ops+536(%rip)". Adding the proper constraints
results in the use of a different register:
movq %r11, %rdi
# Similar to above.
testb $-128, %r11b

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.
