	in order to JIT programs with different stack sizes we need to make epilogue and exception path to be stack size independent, hence move auxiliary stack space from the bottom of the stack to the top of the stack. Nice side effect is that JITed function prologue becomes shorter due to imm8 offset encoding vs imm32.

2015-06-02	x86/debug: Remove perpetually broken, unmaintainable dwarf annotations	Ingo Molnar
	So the dwarf2 annotations in low level assembly code have become an increasing hindrance: unreadable, messy macros mixed into some of the most security sensitive code paths of the Linux kernel. These debug info annotations don't even buy the upstream kernel anything: dwarf driven stack unwinding has caused problems in the past so it's out of tree, and the upstream kernel only uses the much more robust framepointers based stack unwinding method. In addition to that there's a steady, slow bitrot going on with these annotations, requiring frequent fixups. There's no tooling and no functionality upstream that keeps it correct. So burn down the sick forest, allowing new, healthier growth: 27 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 1101 deletions(-) Someone who has the willingness and time to do this properly can attempt to reintroduce dwarf debuginfo in x86 assembly code plus dwarf unwinding from first principles, with the following conditions: - it should be maximally readable, and maximally low-key to 'ordinary' code reading and maintenance. - find a build time method to insert dwarf annotations automatically in the most common cases, for pop/push instructions that manipulate the stack pointer. This could be done for example via a preprocessing step that just looks for common patterns - plus special annotations for the few cases where we want to depart from the default. We have hundreds of CFI annotations, so automating most of that makes sense. - it should come with build tooling checks that ensure that CFI annotations are sensible. We've seen such efforts from the framepointer side, and there's no reason it couldn't be done on the dwarf side.

BPF interpreter executes the program in 30 nsec. The difference in generated assembler is due to the following: Old BPF imlements LDX_MSH instruction via sk_load_byte_msh() helper function inside bpf_jit.S. New JIT removes the helper and does it explicitly, so ldx_msh cost is the same for both JITs, but generated code looks longer. New JIT has 4 registers to save, so prologue/epilogue are larger, but the cost is within noise on x64. Old JIT checks whether first insn clears A and if not emits 'xor %eax,%eax'. New JIT clears %rax unconditionally. 2. old BPF JIT doesn't support ANC_NLATTR, ANC_PAY_OFFSET, ANC_RANDOM extensions. New JIT supports all BPF extensions. Performance of such filters improves 2-4 times depending on a filter. The longer the filter the higher performance gain. Synthetic benchmarks with many ancillary loads see 20x speedup which seems to be the maximum gain from JIT Notes: . net.core.bpf_jit_enable=2 + tools/net/bpf_jit_disasm is still functional and can be used to see generated assembler . there are two jit_compile() functions and code flow for classic filters is: sk_attach_filter() - load classic BPF bpf_jit_compile() - try to JIT from classic BPF sk_convert_filter() - convert classic to internal bpf_int_jit_compile() - JIT from internal BPF seccomp and tracing filters will just call bpf_int_jit_compile() Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-03-11	x86: bpf_jit: support negative offsets	Alexei Starovoitov
	Commit a998d4342337 claimed to introduce negative offset support to x86 jit, but it couldn't be working, since at the time of the execution of LD+ABS or LD+IND instructions via call into bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() the %edx (3rd argument of this func) had junk value instead of access size in bytes (1 or 2 or 4).

2012-04-03	bpf jit: Let the x86 jit handle negative offsets	Jan Seiffert
	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.

No performance difference is observed for filters that were JIT-able before Example assembler code for BPF filter "tcpdump port 22" original BPF -> old JIT: original BPF -> internal BPF -> new JIT: 0: push %rbp 0: push %rbp 1: mov %rsp,%rbp 1: mov %rsp,%rbp 4: sub $0x60,%rsp 4: sub $0x228,%rsp 8: mov %rbx,-0x8(%rbp) b: mov %rbx,-0x228(%rbp) // prologue 12: mov %r13,-0x220(%rbp) 19: mov %r14,-0x218(%rbp) 20: mov %r15,-0x210(%rbp) 27: xor %eax,%eax // clear A c: xor %ebx,%ebx 29: xor %r13,%r13 // clear X e: mov 0x68(%rdi),%r9d 2c: mov 0x68(%rdi),%r9d 12: sub 0x6c(%rdi),%r9d 30: sub 0x6c(%rdi),%r9d 16: mov 0xd8(%rdi),%r8 34: mov 0xd8(%rdi),%r10 3b: mov %rdi,%rbx 1d: mov $0xc,%esi 3e: mov $0xc,%esi 22: callq 0xffffffffe1021e15 43: callq 0xffffffffe102bd75 27: cmp $0x86dd,%eax 48: cmp $0x86dd,%rax 2c: jne 0x0000000000000069 4f: jne 0x000000000000009a 2e: mov $0x14,%esi 51: mov $0x14,%esi 33: callq 0xffffffffe1021e31 56: callq 0xffffffffe102bd91 38: cmp $0x84,%eax 5b: cmp $0x84,%rax 3d: je 0x0000000000000049 62: je 0x0000000000000074 3f: cmp $0x6,%eax 64: cmp $0x6,%rax 42: je 0x0000000000000049 68: je 0x0000000000000074 44: cmp $0x11,%eax 6a: cmp $0x11,%rax 47: jne 0x00000000000000c6 6e: jne 0x0000000000000117 49: mov $0x36,%esi 74: mov $0x36,%esi 4e: callq 0xffffffffe1021e15 79: callq 0xffffffffe102bd75 53: cmp $0x16,%eax 7e: cmp $0x16,%rax 56: je 0x00000000000000bf 82: je 0x0000000000000110 58: mov $0x38,%esi 88: mov $0x38,%esi 5d: callq 0xffffffffe1021e15 8d: callq 0xffffffffe102bd75 62: cmp $0x16,%eax 92: cmp $0x16,%rax 65: je 0x00000000000000bf 96: je 0x0000000000000110 67: jmp 0x00000000000000c6 98: jmp 0x0000000000000117 69: cmp $0x800,%eax 9a: cmp $0x800,%rax 6e: jne 0x00000000000000c6 a1: jne 0x0000000000000117 70: mov $0x17,%esi a3: mov $0x17,%esi 75: callq 0xffffffffe1021e31 a8: callq 0xffffffffe102bd91 7a: cmp $0x84,%eax ad: cmp $0x84,%rax 7f: je 0x000000000000008b b4: je 0x00000000000000c2 81: cmp $0x6,%eax b6: cmp $0x6,%rax 84: je 0x000000000000008b ba: je 0x00000000000000c2 86: cmp $0x11,%eax bc: cmp $0x11,%rax 89: jne 0x00000000000000c6 c0: jne 0x0000000000000117 8b: mov $0x14,%esi c2: mov $0x14,%esi 90: callq 0xffffffffe1021e15 c7: callq 0xffffffffe102bd75 95: test $0x1fff,%ax cc: test $0x1fff,%rax 99: jne 0x00000000000000c6 d3: jne 0x0000000000000117 d5: mov %rax,%r14 9b: mov $0xe,%esi d8: mov $0xe,%esi a0: callq 0xffffffffe1021e44 dd: callq 0xffffffffe102bd91 // MSH e2: and $0xf,%eax e5: shl $0x2,%eax e8: mov %rax,%r13 eb: mov %r14,%rax ee: mov %r13,%rsi a5: lea 0xe(%rbx),%esi f1: add $0xe,%esi a8: callq 0xffffffffe1021e0d f4: callq 0xffffffffe102bd6d ad: cmp $0x16,%eax f9: cmp $0x16,%rax b0: je 0x00000000000000bf fd: je 0x0000000000000110 ff: mov %r13,%rsi b2: lea 0x10(%rbx),%esi 102: add $0x10,%esi b5: callq 0xffffffffe1021e0d 105: callq 0xffffffffe102bd6d ba: cmp $0x16,%eax 10a: cmp $0x16,%rax bd: jne 0x00000000000000c6 10e: jne 0x0000000000000117 bf: mov $0xffff,%eax 110: mov $0xffff,%eax c4: jmp 0x00000000000000c8 115: jmp 0x000000000000011c c6: xor %eax,%eax 117: mov $0x0,%eax c8: mov -0x8(%rbp),%rbx 11c: mov -0x228(%rbp),%rbx // epilogue cc: leaveq 123: mov -0x220(%rbp),%r13 cd: retq 12a: mov -0x218(%rbp),%r14 131: mov -0x210(%rbp),%r15 138: leaveq 139: retq On fully cached SKBs both JITed functions take 12 nsec to execute. BPF interpreter executes the program in 30 nsec. The difference in generated assembler is due to the following: Old BPF imlements LDX_MSH instruction via sk_load_byte_msh() helper function inside bpf_jit.S. New JIT removes the helper and does it explicitly, so ldx_msh cost is the same for both JITs, but generated code looks longer. New JIT has 4 registers to save, so prologue/epilogue are larger, but the cost is within noise on x64. Old JIT checks whether first insn clears A and if not emits 'xor %eax,%eax'. New JIT clears %rax unconditionally. 2. old BPF JIT doesn't support ANC_NLATTR, ANC_PAY_OFFSET, ANC_RANDOM extensions. New JIT supports all BPF extensions. Performance of such filters improves 2-4 times depending on a filter. The longer the filter the higher performance gain. Synthetic benchmarks with many ancillary loads see 20x speedup which seems to be the maximum gain from JIT Notes: . net.core.bpf_jit_enable=2 + tools/net/bpf_jit_disasm is still functional and can be used to see generated assembler . there are two jit_compile() functions and code flow for classic filters is: sk_attach_filter() - load classic BPF bpf_jit_compile() - try to JIT from classic BPF sk_convert_filter() - convert classic to internal bpf_int_jit_compile() - JIT from internal BPF seccomp and tracing filters will just call bpf_int_jit_compile() Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit a998d4342337 claimed to introduce negative offset support to x86 jit, but it couldn't be working, since at the time of the execution of LD+ABS or LD+IND instructions via call into bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper() the %edx (3rd argument of this func) had junk value instead of access size in bytes (1 or 2 or 4). Store size into %edx instead of %ecx (what original commit intended to do) Fixes: a998d4342337 ("bpf jit: Let the x86 jit handle negative offsets") Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Jan Seiffert <kaffeemonster@googlemail.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.

In order to speedup packet filtering, here is an implementation of a JIT compiler for x86_64 It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin. echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.
