Changes from v1:

- Use unsigned access for SKF_AD_HATYPE

- Added three more patches for other problems found.


Testing the BPF JIT on Cavium OCTEON (mips64) with the test-bpf module
identified some failures and unimplemented features.

With this patch set we get:

test_bpf: Summary: 305 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [85/297 JIT'ed]

Both big and little endian tested.

We still lack eBPF support, but this is better than nothing.

What tree are you targetting with these changes? Do you expect
them to go via the MIPS or the net-next tree?

Please be explicit about this in the future.


Sorry I didn't mention it.

My expectation is that Ralf would merge it via the MIPS tree, as it is fully contained within arch/mips/*

Thank you.
