Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 10/13] selftests/bpf: Add C tests for 16-byte returns in R0:R2
Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2026 12:04:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260808190413.1902293-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260808190322.1896580-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>
Add selftests that exercise a 16-byte return value passed in the R0:R2
register pair, written in C so that they depend on the compiler lowering
the register-pair return. Covered are an __int128 return, a 16-byte struct
return (from a static and from a global subprogram) and a 16-byte union
return, plus __int128 and 16-byte struct returns from a kfunc, for which
bpf_kfunc_call_test_i128() and bpf_kfunc_call_test_ret_pair() are added to
bpf_testmod.
The R0:R2 convention is only emitted by LLVM 23 and newer. Each object
records in a read-only has_reg_pair_ret flag which compiler built it; where
that is false the programs are stubs and subtests report a skip rather than
a pass.
The two kfunc subtests further depend on the JIT: bpf_add_kfunc_call()
rejects a kfunc returning more than 8 bytes with -EOPNOTSUPP where
bpf_jit_supports_kfunc_ret_reg_pair() is false. Those calls therefore live
in an object of their own, and that load failing with -EOPNOTSUPP is what
turns the two subtests into skips, so no list of the JITs implementing the
pair needs to be kept here. A register-pair return from a BPF subprogram
needs no JIT support, so the remaining subtests run everywhere.
bpf_kfunc_call_test_i128() is guarded by __SIZEOF_INT128__, which the
compiler only defines on 64-bit targets. A return value in R0:R2 is
supported on 64-bit architectures only, so the guard is there to keep
bpf_testmod building on a 32-bit target, not to make the test run there.
