a) Initial value of RAX is in emit_prologue().
if (!ebpf_from_cbpf) {
if (tail_call_reachable && !is_subprog)
/* When it's the entry of the whole
* tailcall context, zeroing the RAX
* means init tail_call_cnt.
*/
EMIT2(0x31, 0xC0); /* xor eax, eax */
else
// Keep the same asm layout.
EMIT2(0x66, 0x90); /* nop2 */
}
I'd like to add this comment to emit_prologue().

b) Good to update the stack layout. I'll do it.

c) Its comment will be updated also.

Thanks,
Leon
