Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 2/4] bpf: arm64: Add support for indirect jumps
Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2025 00:46:37 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251117004656.33292-3-puranjay@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251117004656.33292-1-puranjay@kernel.org>
Add support for a new instruction
BPF_JMP|BPF_X|BPF_JA, SRC=0, DST=Rx, off=0, imm=0
which does an indirect jump to a location stored in Rx. The register
Rx should have type PTR_TO_INSN. This new type assures that the Rx
register contains a value (or a range of values) loaded from a
correct jump table – map of type instruction array.
ARM64 JIT supports indirect jumps to all registers through the A64_BR()
macro, use it to implement this new instruction.
