Merge branch 'support-bpf_fastcall-patterns-for-calls-to-kfuncs'
Eduard Zingerman says: ==================== support bpf_fastcall patterns for calls to kfuncs As an extension of [1], allow bpf_fastcall patterns for kfuncs: - pattern rules are the same as for helpers; - spill/fill removal is allowed only for kfuncs listed in the is_fastcall_kfunc_call (under assumption that such kfuncs would always be members of special_kfunc_list). Allow bpf_fastcall rewrite for bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() and bpf_rdonly_cast() in order to conjure selftests for this feature. After this patch-set verifier would rewrite the program below: r2 = 1 *(u64 *)(r10 - 32) = r2 call %[bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx] r2 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 32) r0 = r2;" As follows: r2 = 1 /* spill/fill at r10[-32] is removed */ r0 = r1 /* replacement for bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() */ r0 = r2 exit Also, attribute used by LLVM implementation of the feature had been changed from no_caller_saved_registers to bpf_fastcall (see [2]). This patch-set replaces references to nocsr by references to bpf_fastcall to keep LLVM and Kernel parts in sync. [1] no_caller_saved_registers attribute for helper calls https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240722233844.1406874-1-eddyz87@gmail.com/ [2] [BPF] introduce __attribute__((bpf_fastcall)) https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/105417 Changes v2->v3: - added a patch fixing arch_mask handling in test_loader, otherwise newly added tests for the feature were skipped (a fix for regression introduced by a recent commit); - fixed warning regarding unused 'params' variable; - applied stylistical fixes suggested by Yonghong; - added acks from Yonghong; Changes v1->v2: - added two patches replacing all mentions of nocsr by bpf_fastcall (suggested by Andrii); - removed KF_NOCSR flag (suggested by Yonghong). v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240812234356.2089263-1-eddyz87@gmail.com/ v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240817015140.1039351-1-eddyz87@gmail.com/ ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240822084112.3257995-1-eddyz87@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
