3480593131 net: filter: get rid of BPF_S_* enum
This patch finally allows us to get rid of the BPF_S_* enum.
Currently, the code performs unnecessary encode and decode
workarounds in seccomp and filter migration itself when a filter
is being attached in order to overcome BPF_S_* encoding which
is not used anymore by the new interpreter resp. JIT compilers.

Keeping it around would mean that also in future we would need
to extend and maintain this enum and related encoders/decoders.
We can get rid of all that and save us these operations during
filter attaching. Naturally, also JIT compilers need to be updated
by this.

Before JIT conversion is being done, each compiler checks if A
is being loaded at startup to obtain information if it needs to
emit instructions to clear A first. Since BPF extensions are a
subset of BPF_LD | BPF_{W,H,B} | BPF_ABS variants, case statements
for extensions can be removed at that point. To ease and minimalize
code changes in the classic JITs, we have introduced bpf_anc_helper().

Tested with test_bpf on x86_64 (JIT, int), s390x (JIT, int),
arm (JIT, int), i368 (int), ppc64 (JIT, int); for sparc we
unfortunately didn't have access, but changes are analogous to
the rest.

Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

7784655acc powerpc: Fix BPF_JIT code to link with multiple TOCs
If the kernel is big enough (eg. allyesconfig), the linker may need to
switch TOCs when calling from the BPF JIT code out to the external
helpers (skb_copy_bits() & bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper()).

In order to do that we need to leave space after the bl for the linker
to insert a reload of our TOC pointer.

05be18241e bpf jit: Let the powerpc jit handle negative offsets
Now the helper function from filter.c for negative offsets is exported,
it can be used it in the jit to handle negative offsets.

First modify the asm load helper functions to handle:
- know positive offsets
- know negative offsets
- any offset

then the compiler can be modified to explicitly use these helper
when appropriate.

This fixes the case of a negative X register and allows to lift
the restriction that bpf programs with negative offsets can't
be jited.

0ca87f05ba net: filter: BPF 'JIT' compiler for PPC64
An implementation of a code generator for BPF programs to speed up packet
filtering on PPC64, inspired by Eric Dumazet's x86-64 version.

Filter code is generated as an ABI-compliant function in module_alloc()'d mem
with stackframe & prologue/epilogue generated if required (simple filters don't
need anything more than an li/blr).  The filter's local variables, M[], live in
registers.  Supports all BPF opcodes, although "complicated" loads from negative
packet offsets (e.g. SKF_LL_OFF) are not yet supported.

There are a couple of further optimisations left for future work; many-pass
assembly with branch-reach reduction and a register allocator to push M[]
variables into volatile registers would improve the code quality further.

This currently supports big-endian 64-bit PowerPC only (but is fairly simple
to port to PPC32 or LE!).

Enabled in the same way as x86-64:

	echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

Or, enabled with extra debug output:

	echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
