Bug 458218

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***

In running the
unit/ctest_fem_parproj
unit test in the gkylzero code (https://github.com/ammarhakim/gkylzero/) with

valgrind --leak-check=full ./build/unit/ctest_fem_parproj test_1x_p1_periodic

I get a
"vex amd64->IR: unhandled instruction bytes: 0x62 0xF1 0xFE 0x8 0x6F 0xA3 0x68 0x0 0x0 0x0"
error and some messages pointing to lines of code that seem perfectly fine (see below).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download and install gkylzero (https://github.com/ammarhakim/gkylzero/) following instructions in the README (essentially install dependencies and run makefile, see example pre-built scripts in /machines).
2. Run the fem_parproj unit test: valgrind --leak-check=full ./build/unit/ctest_fem_parproj test_1x_p1_periodic

==4071452== Your program just tried to execute an instruction that Valgrind
==4071452== did not recognise.  There are two possible reasons for this.
==4071452== 1. Your program has a bug and erroneously jumped to a non-code
==4071452==    location.  If you are running Memcheck and you just saw a
==4071452==    warning about a bad jump, it's probably your program's fault.
==4071452== 2. The instruction is legitimate but Valgrind doesn't handle it,
==4071452==    i.e. it's Valgrind's fault.  If you think this is the case or
==4071452==    you are not sure, please let us know and we'll try to fix it.
==4071452== Either way, Valgrind will now raise a SIGILL signal which will
==4071452== probably kill your program.

EXPECTED RESULT
No errors or SIGILLs. Just a message that the test passed like

Test test_1x_p1_periodic...                     [ OK ]
SUCCESS: All unit tests have passed.

which you get if you run the test without valgrind via
./build/unit/ctest_fem_parproj test_1x_p1_periodic

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Linux RedHat I believe. The command uname -r returns
4.18.0-372.19.1.el8_6.x86_64

And I compiled gkylzero with
cc (GCC) 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-10)

Line 77 in range.c that the error refers to is the second of these two:

  int idxZero[GKYL_MAX_DIM];
  for (int i=0; i<ndim; ++i) idxZero[i] = 0;

where GKYL_MAX_DIM=6 and ndim<=6.
