Linux kernel source tree
7bdbf74463
Add a new BPF instruction for resolving absolute addresses of per-CPU data from their per-CPU offsets. This instruction is internal-only and users are not allowed to use them directly. They will only be used for internal inlining optimizations for now between BPF verifier and BPF JITs. We use a special BPF_MOV | BPF_ALU64 | BPF_X form with insn->off field set to BPF_ADDR_PERCPU = -1. I used negative offset value to distinguish them from positive ones used by user-exposed instructions. Such instruction performs a resolution of a per-CPU offset stored in a register to a valid kernel address which can be dereferenced. It is useful in any use case where absolute address of a per-CPU data has to be resolved (e.g., in inlining bpf_map_lookup_elem()). BPF disassembler is also taught to recognize them to support dumping final BPF assembly code (non-JIT'ed version). Add arch-specific way for BPF JITs to mark support for this instructions. This patch also adds support for these instructions in x86-64 BPF JIT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
