Can you explain all the modRM refactoring as part of this PR? Was this needed to support vzeroupper? I'm not saying it's wrong, just unexpected. |
The vzeroupper instruction is a VEX instruction that has no operands, and no modRM byte. The refactoring was to handle instructions following this pattern. The failures seem to be quirk of running the binary encoding test on hardware that doesn't support AVX. So by default, it tries to encode the instruction like a legacy SSE instruction. |
