Explanation / Answer

Answer: c irmovq $0, %rax

Explanation:

The values in %rsi and %rdi are 0c00.... and 0800.... Respectively

The result for subq %rsi, %rdi will be positive will not update the negative flag

Therefore jl less is not executed, in which PC points to next instruction

So the next instruction that is executed after jl jess is

irmovq $0, %rax.
