Thanks for the reminder about the access width.
It is 64-bit register. What I said is the "movq", not "movl".
(I understand that movl is incorrect for 64-bit register).
I didn't say anything about movl. I think what you're trying to say is
that because your inputs like hcall_id and param1/2 are unsigned longs,
you want a 64-bit move.
Yes. "movq" only indicates explicitly that it is 64-bit mov as ACRN
guest only works under 64-bit mode.
I also check the usage of "mov" and "movq" in this scenario. There is no
difference except that the movq is an explicit 64-op.
Of course "mov" is also ok to me that if you prefer the "mov".
Thanks
