aarch64 doesn't have native store immediate instruction, such operation
Actually, aarch64 does have "STR (immediate)". For arm64 JIT, we can consider using it as an optimization.
You may also want to consider adding a note about the corresponding test cases: commit cffc642d93f9 ("test_bpf: add 173 new testcases for eBPF").
Otherwise, the patch below looks good. Reviewed-by: Zi Shen Lim zlim.lnx@gmail.com
has to be implemented by the below instruction sequence:
Load immediate to register Store register
