The encoding for this new variant is based on BPF_X format. "imm" field was 0 only, now it could be 1 which means doing zero extension unconditionally .code = BPF_ALU | BPF_MOV | BPF_X .dst_reg = DST .src_reg = SRC .imm = 1 We use this new form for doing zero extension for which verifier will guarantee SRC == DST. Implications on JIT back-ends when doing code-gen for BPF_ALU | BPF_MOV | BPF_X: 1. No change if hardware already does zero extension unconditionally for sub-register write. 2. Otherwise, when seeing imm == 1, just generate insns to clear high 32-bit. No need to generate insns for the move because when imm == 1, dst_reg is the same as src_reg at the moment. Interpreter doesn't need change as well. It is doing unconditionally zero extension for mov32 already. One helper macro BPF_ZEXT_REG is added to help creating zero extension insn using this new mov32 variant. One helper function insn_is_zext is added for checking one insn is an zero extension on dst. This will be widely used by a few JIT back-ends in later patches in this set. Signed-off-by: Jiong Wang <jiong.wang@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

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 Restructured Text 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.
