The current BPF store/load instruction is translated by the JIT into two
instructions. The first instruction moves the immediate offset into a
temporary register. The second instruction uses this temporary register
to do the real store/load.

In fact, arm64 supports addressing with immediate offsets. So This patch
introduces optimization that uses arm64 str/ldr instruction with immediate
offset when the offset fits.

Example of generated instuction for r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0):

without optimization:
mov x10, 0
ldr x1, [x0, x10]

with optimization:
ldr x1, [x0, 0]

If the offset is negative, or is not aligned correctly, or exceeds max
value, rollback to the use of temporary register.

Inject fault while probing kunit-example-test.ko, if kzalloc fails
in kunit_parse_glob_filter(), strcpy() or strncpy() to NULL will
cause below null-ptr-deref bug. So check NULL for kzalloc() and
return int instead of void for kunit_parse_glob_filter().

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure
------------------------
The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

All the failing test cases are due to the ones that were not JIT'ed.
Categorically, they can be represented as:

  .-----------.------------.-------------.
  | test type |   opcodes  | # of cases  |
  |-----------+------------+-------------|
  | atomic    | 0xC3, 0xDB |         149 |

                           `-------------'

Setup: build config
-------------------
The following configs must be set to have a working JIT test:

  CONFIG_BPF_JIT=y
  CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
  CONFIG_TEST_BPF=m

The following options are not necessary for the tests module,
but are good to have:

  CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y             # prerequisite for below
  CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y         # so bpftool can generate vmlinux.h

  CONFIG_FTRACE=y                 #
  CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL=y            # all these options lead to
  CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=y          # having CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS=y
  CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y            #

Some BPF programs provide data through /sys/kernel/debug:
  CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
arc# mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug

Setup: elfutils
---------------
The libdw.{so,a} library that is used by pahole for processing
the final binary must come from elfutils 0.189 or newer. The
support for ARCv2 [1] has been added since that version.

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=commit;h=de3d46b3e7

Setup: pahole
-------------
The line below in linux/scripts/Makefile.btf must be commented out:

pahole-flags-$(call test-ge, $(pahole-ver), 121) += --btf_gen_floats

Or else, the build will fail:

This is due to the fact that the ARC toolchains generate

can't handle such entries.

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:0 238 PASS
test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:1  23 PASS

test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:1 1020022 PASS

Deployment and structure
------------------------
The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

All the failing test cases are due to the ones that were not JIT'ed.

  CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y

the final binary must come from elfutils 0.189 or newer. The
support for ARCv2 [1] has been added since that version.

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status
--------------
The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

"complex float" DIE entries in libgcc and at the moment, pahole
can't handle such entries.

This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The
implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK
board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU.

The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its
tests. For instance:

test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS
test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120  224  260 PASS

Deployment and structure

The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net":

- bpf_jit.h       -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide
- bpf_jit_core.c  -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream
- bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic

The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance
to the whole process. Normally, the translation is done in one pass,
namely the "normal pass". In case some relocations are not known during
this pass, some data (arc_jit_data) is allocated for the next pass to
come. This possible next (and last) pass is called the "extra pass".

1. Normal pass       # The necessary pass
     1a. Dry run       # Get the whole JIT length, epilogue offset, etc.
     1b. Emit phase    # Allocate memory and start emitting instructions
2. Extra pass        # Only needed if there are relocations to be fixed
     2a. Patch relocations

Support status

The JIT compiler supports BPF instructions up to "cpu=v4". However, it
does not yet provide support for:

- Tail calls
- Atomic operations
- 64-bit division/remainder
- BPF_PROBE_MEM* (exception table)

The result of "test_bpf" test suite on an HSDK board is:

hsdk-lnx# insmod test_bpf.ko test_suite=test_bpf

  test_bpf: Summary: 863 PASSED, 186 FAILED, [851/851 JIT'ed]

All the failing test cases are due to the ones that were not JIT'ed.

Setup: build config
-------------------
The following configs must be set to have a working JIT test:

  CONFIG_BPF_JIT=y
  CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON=y
  CONFIG_TEST_BPF=m

The following options are not necessary for the tests module,
but are good to have:

  CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y             # prerequisite for below
  CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y         # so bpftool can generate vmlinux.h

  CONFIG_FTRACE=y                 #

Some BPF programs provide data through /sys/kernel/debug:
  CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y
arc# mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug

Setup: elfutils
---------------
The libdw.{so,a} library that is used by pahole for processing
the final binary must come from elfutils 0.189 or newer. The
support for ARCv2 [1] has been added since that version.

…low()

There are code paths from which the function is called without holding
the RCU read lock, resulting in a suspicious RCU usage warning [1].

Fix by using l3mdev_master_upper_ifindex_by_index() which will acquire
the RCU read lock before calling
l3mdev_master_upper_ifindex_by_index_rcu().

The last reference for `cache_head` can be reduced to zero in `c_show`
and `e_show`(using `rcu_read_lock` and `rcu_read_unlock`). Consequently,
`svc_export_put` and `expkey_put` will be invoked, leading to two
issues:

1. The `svc_export_put` will directly free ex_uuid. However,
   `e_show`/`c_show` will access `ex_uuid` after `cache_put`, which can
   trigger a use-after-free issue, shown below.

2. We cannot sleep while using `rcu_read_lock`/`rcu_read_unlock`.
   However, `svc_export_put`/`expkey_put` will call path_put, which
   subsequently triggers a sleeping operation due to the following
   `dput`.

Fix these issues by using `rcu_work` to help release
`svc_expkey`/`svc_export`. This approach allows for an asynchronous
context to invoke `path_put` and also facilitates the freeing of
`uuid/exp/key` after an RCU grace period.
