I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. Yes, there is no need to //dynamically// realign the stack in 64-bit mode since the CPU aligns the stack on a 16 byte boundary on interrupt entry. However, for some exceptions, the CPU pushes an 8 byte error code afterwards. In that case it is necessary to subtract another 8 bytes from RSP to restore the 16-byte alignment.
