[PATCH v2 0/8] Implement EBPF on powerpc32

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Mon Mar 22 2021 - 12:38:32 EST


This series implements extended BPF on powerpc32. For the implementation
details, see the patch before the last.

The following operations are not implemented:

case BPF_ALU64 | BPF_DIV | BPF_X: /* dst /= src */
case BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOD | BPF_X: /* dst %= src */
case BPF_STX | BPF_XADD | BPF_DW: /* *(u64 *)(dst + off) += src */

The following operations are only implemented for power of two constants:

case BPF_ALU64 | BPF_MOD | BPF_K: /* dst %= imm */
case BPF_ALU64 | BPF_DIV | BPF_K: /* dst /= imm */

Below are the results on a powerpc 885:
- with the patch, with and without bpf_jit_enable
- without the patch, with bpf_jit_enable (ie with CBPF)

With the patch, with bpf_jit_enable = 1 :

[ 60.826529] test_bpf: Summary: 378 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [354/366 JIT'ed]
[ 60.832505] test_bpf: test_skb_segment: Summary: 2 PASSED, 0 FAILED

With the patch, with bpf_jit_enable = 0 :

[ 75.186337] test_bpf: Summary: 378 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [0/366 JIT'ed]
[ 75.192325] test_bpf: test_skb_segment: Summary: 2 PASSED, 0 FAILED

Without the patch, with bpf_jit_enable = 1 :

[ 186.112429] test_bpf: Summary: 371 PASSED, 7 FAILED, [119/366 JIT'ed]

Couldn't run test_progs because it doesn't build (clang 11 crashes during the build).

Changes in v2:
- Simplify 16 bits swap
- Rework tailcall, use stack for tailcall counter
- Fix handling of BPF_REG_FP:
- must be handler like any other register allthough only the lower 32 bits part is used as a pointer.
- r18 was TMP_REG, r17/r18 become de BPF_REG_FP
- r31 was BPF_REG_FP, it is now TMP_REG
- removed bpf_jit32.h
- Reorder register allocation dynamically to use the volatile registers as much as possible when not doing function calls (last patch - new)

Christophe Leroy (8):
powerpc/bpf: Remove classical BPF support for PPC32
powerpc/bpf: Change register numbering for bpf_set/is_seen_register()
powerpc/bpf: Move common helpers into bpf_jit.h
powerpc/bpf: Move common functions into bpf_jit_comp.c
powerpc/bpf: Change values of SEEN_ flags
powerpc/asm: Add some opcodes in asm/ppc-opcode.h for PPC32 eBPF
powerpc/bpf: Implement extended BPF on PPC32
powerpc/bpf: Reallocate BPF registers to volatile registers when
possible on PPC32
