Add support for JMP_CALL_X (tail call) introduced by commit 04fd61a
("bpf: allow bpf programs to tail-call other bpf programs").
bpf_tail_call() arguments:
ctx - context pointer passed to next program
array - pointer to map which type is BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY
index - index inside array that selects specific program to run
In this implementation arm64 JIT jumps into callee program after prologue,
so callee program reuses the same stack. For tail_call_cnt, we use the
callee-saved R26 (which was already saved/restored but previously unused
by JIT).
With this patch a tail call generates the following code on arm64:
if (index >= array->map.max_entries)
goto out;
34: mov x10, #0x10 // torvalds#16
38: ldr w10, [x1,x10]
3c: cmp w2, w10
40: b.ge 0x0000000000000074
if (tail_call_cnt > MAX_TAIL_CALL_CNT)
goto out;
tail_call_cnt++;
44: mov x10, #0x20 // torvalds#32
48: cmp x26, x10
4c: b.gt 0x0000000000000074
50: add x26, x26, #0x1
prog = array->ptrs[index];
if (prog == NULL)
goto out;
54: mov x10, #0x68 // torvalds#104
58: ldr x10, [x1,x10]
5c: ldr x11, [x10,x2]
60: cbz x11, 0x0000000000000074
goto *(prog->bpf_func + prologue_size);
64: mov x10, #0x20 // torvalds#32
68: ldr x10, [x11,x10]
6c: add x10, x10, #0x20
70: br x10
