If FW_FEATRURE_OPAL is 0x80000000 then the li will sign extend.
The rldicr has a mask of all F's so it will keep all the bits you
don't care about.
So together, you'll get compares happening on bits above the 16 you care
about that might change the result of your comparison incorrectly.
Since FW_FEATURE_* bits aren't ABI, they can change, so we don't want
to impose a constraint on them.
Thus I would recommend using an rdlicl r3,r3,16,48 (aka srdi r3,r3,48)
instead which is going to clear all bits above 0xffff.
Now, that being said, FW_FEATURE_* can be 64-bit and this isn't perf
critical so why not just load the full 64-bit constant into r3 and
be done with it ? There's a macro to do that:
LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE(r3,FW_FEATURE_OPAL)
Cheers,
Ben.
