mips, bpf: Add eBPF JIT for 32-bit MIPS
This is an implementation of an eBPF JIT for 32-bit MIPS I-V and MIPS32. The implementation supports all 32-bit and 64-bit ALU and JMP operations, including the recently-added atomics. 64-bit div/mod and 64-bit atomics are implemented using function calls to math64 and atomic64 functions, respectively. All 32-bit operations are implemented natively by the JIT, except if the CPU lacks ll/sc instructions. Register mapping ================ All 64-bit eBPF registers are mapped to native 32-bit MIPS register pairs, and does not use any stack scratch space for register swapping. This means that all eBPF register data is kept in CPU registers all the time, and this simplifies the register management a lot. It also reduces the JIT's pressure on temporary registers since we do not have to move data around. Native register pairs are ordered according to CPU endiannes, following the O32 calling convention for passing 64-bit arguments and return values. The eBPF return value, arguments and callee-saved registers are mapped to their native MIPS equivalents. Since the 32 highest bits in the eBPF FP (frame pointer) register are always zero, only one general-purpose register is actually needed for the mapping. The MIPS fp register is used for this purpose. The high bits are mapped to MIPS register r0. This saves us one CPU register, which is much needed for temporaries, while still allowing us to treat the R10 (FP) register just like any other eBPF register in the JIT. The MIPS gp (global pointer) and at (assembler temporary) registers are used as internal temporary registers for constant blinding. CPU registers t6-t9 are used internally by the JIT when constructing more complex 64-bit operations. This is precisely what is needed - two registers to store an operand value, and two more as scratch registers when performing the operation. The register mapping is shown below. R0 - $v1, $v0 return value R1 - $a1, $a0 argument 1, passed in registers R2 - $a3, $a2 argument 2, passed in registers R3 - $t1, $t0 argument 3, passed on stack R4 - $t3, $t2 argument 4, passed on stack R5 - $t4, $t3 argument 5, passed on stack R6 - $s1, $s0 callee-saved R7 - $s3, $s2 callee-saved R8 - $s5, $s4 callee-saved R9 - $s7, $s6 callee-saved FP - $r0, $fp 32-bit frame pointer AX - $gp, $at constant-blinding $t6 - $t9 unallocated, JIT temporaries Jump offsets ============ The JIT tries to map all conditional JMP operations to MIPS conditional PC-relative branches. The MIPS branch offset field is 18 bits, in bytes, which is equivalent to the eBPF 16-bit instruction offset. However, since the JIT may emit more than one CPU instruction per eBPF instruction, the field width may overflow. If that happens, the JIT converts the long conditional jump to a short PC-relative branch with the condition inverted, jumping over a long unconditional absolute jmp (j). This conversion will change the instruction offset mapping used for jumps, and may in turn result in more branch offset overflows. The JIT therefore dry-runs the translation until no more branches are converted and the offsets do not change anymore. There is an upper bound on this of course, and if the JIT hits that limit, the last two iterations are run with all branches being converted. Tail call count =============== The current tail call count is stored in the 16-byte area of the caller's stack frame that is reserved for the callee in the o32 ABI. The value is initialized in the prologue, and propagated to the tail-callee by skipping the initialization instructions when emitting the tail call.
