[PATCH bpf-next 1/2] bpf, riscv: Add support for indirect jumps

From: Chen Pei

Date: Wed Sep 23 2026 - 09:11:31 EST


Implement JIT support for the indirect jump instruction (BPF_JMP |
BPF_JA | BPF_X), a.k.a. gotox, which lets a BPF program jump through a
BPF_MAP_TYPE_INSN_ARRAY jump table.

Emit "jalr zero, rd, 0" and hand the xlated to jitted offsets to
bpf_prog_update_insn_ptrs(), which is what fills in the jump table
entries; without that call the load fails with -EFAULT in
bpf_insn_array_ready(). ctx->offset[] holds the offset of the insn
*following* insn i, as bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo() expects, so it is
shifted by one and offset[0] comes from the prologue length. build_body()
now records both halves of a multi-insn record, so no slot keeps a
fabricated offset.

Only the RV64 JIT is covered; RV32 keeps failing to load as before.
