Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2 1/3] bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for arena-related insns
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 22:11:20 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715141122.15783-2-leon.hwang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715141122.15783-1-leon.hwang@linux.dev>
Since the interpreter does not support the arena-related insns,
interpreter fallback should not be allowed for these insns in
core.c::__bpf_prog_select_runtime().
Currently, when the interpreter executes the arena ST/LDX/STX insns,
it would hit the BUG_ON() in ___bpf_prog_run() at run time.
[ 2.579196] BPF interpreter: unknown opcode a2 (imm: 0x0)
[ 2.579998] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 2.580652] kernel BUG at kernel/bpf/core.c:2349!
[ 2.581314] Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
Set jit_required as true when arena map is used in the prog to disallow
interpreter fallback for arena-related insns.
Fixes: 6082b6c328b5 ("bpf: Recognize addr_space_cast instruction in the verifier.")
