Based on the discussion, we know "mov eax, eax" clears upper 32bits of RAX.
But this code looks very confusing. Is there any other instruction that can do the same thing?

Hi Ray,

Any instruction that writes to the lower 32-bits should zero the upper bits.
(Pardon my AT&T syntax, just reverse the operands for Intel syntax)

and $0xffffffff,%eax gets you a 3 byte opcode (since imm8 is signed,
you only need 0xff as the immediate)
and %eax, %eax gets you 2 bytes
mov %eax, %eax gets you 2 bytes

even something silly like adding 0 to EAX should work. But in a pure
efficiency+size POV, the last 2 instructions should be optimal.

Posted by Nate DeSimone 22 hours ago 
Reviewing this code in more detail... I think clearing the upper 32-bits is a bug. These functions are supposed to return pointers, and since this is X64 code those pointers could be anywhere in address space. The fact that the FSP is in XIP NEM, which on current Intel platforms just happens to be mapped <4GB does not mean that this pointer will always be 4GB. Therefore, I believe the correct course of action is to delete the AND/MOV instructions in question.

Thanks,
Nate

Hi., Chasel

RAX holds the FsptImageBaseAddress, the AND operation is performed to clear the upper 32bits of RAX registers.
Don't we have to clear the upper 32bit of RAX registers?

Yes - it does. Most (if not all?) operations on 32-bit registers zero-extend the corresponding 64-bit register. This is an AMD64 / Intel 64 design to combat partial register stall. Please consult the SDM (or at least try it out).

What I didn’t realize is that “mov eax, eax” apparently defeats register renaming optimisations: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45660140
