bpf ppc32: Add BPF_PROBE_MEM support for JIT
BPF load instruction with BPF_PROBE_MEM mode can cause a fault inside kernel. Append exception table for such instructions within BPF program. Unlike other archs which uses extable 'fixup' field to pass dest_reg and nip, BPF exception table on PowerPC follows the generic PowerPC exception table design, where it populates both fixup and extable sections within BPF program. fixup section contains 3 instructions, first 2 instructions clear dest_reg (lower & higher 32-bit registers) and last instruction jumps to next instruction in the BPF code. extable 'insn' field contains relative offset of the instruction and 'fixup' field contains relative offset of the fixup entry. Example layout of BPF program with extable present: +------------------+ | | | | 0x4020 -->| lwz r28,4(r4) | | | | | 0x40ac -->| lwz r3,0(r24) | | lwz r4,4(r24) | | | | | |------------------| 0x4278 -->| li r28,0 | \ | li r27,0 | | fixup entry | b 0x4024 | / 0x4284 -->| li r4,0 | | li r3,0 | | b 0x40b4 | |------------------| 0x4290 -->| insn=0xfffffd90 | \ extable entry | fixup=0xffffffe4 | / 0x4298 -->| insn=0xfffffe14 | | fixup=0xffffffe8 | +------------------+ (Addresses shown here are chosen random, not real) Signed-off-by: Hari Bathini <hbathini@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211012123056.485795-8-hbathini@linux.ibm.com
