Right, and since they're signed immediates, the AUDIT_ARCH_X86_64 thing
is 0xc000003e and does not fit in an s32, thus the 64-bit immediate with
bf opcode:
mov $0x80000000-1,%rdi
mov $0x80000000,%rdi
mov $0xc000003e,%rdi
mov $0xc000003e,%edi
...
21: 48 c7 c7 ff ff ff 7f mov $0x7fffffff,%rdi
28: 48 bf 00 00 00 80 00 movabs $0x80000000,%rdi
2f: 00 00 00
32: 48 bf 3e 00 00 c0 00 movabs $0xc000003e,%rdi
39: 00 00 00
3c: bf 3e 00 00 c0 mov $0xc000003e,%edi
Makes sense to me.
