[PATCH 2/3] PR 34029: bpf: allow w regs in store insns similar to llvm

Vineet Gupta vineet.gupta@linux.dev
Mon Mar 30 22:42:02 GMT 2026


|  *(u32 *)(r9 +0) = w5
|  Error: unexpected register name `w5' in expression

This syntax is allowed by llvm, athough encoding wise it is same as
the insn with rN src reg.

The original motivation was a now abondoned gcc change which would
generate these patterns.
