Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v6 05/21] bpf: Prepare for an exception cleanup table before the CFG walk
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 22:00:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260926050032.2215748-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260926050006.2213110-1-yonghong.song@linux.dev>

Record in insn_aux_data what the later passes need from the cleanup table:
cleanup_pad, the landing pad a frame resumes at, for every call that can
unwind -- a BPF-to-BPF call or bpf_unwind() -- within the [begin_off,
end_off) range of a cleanup record. Helper and other kfunc calls in the
range cannot unwind and are skipped. Subsequent commits consume it.

bpf_prepare_cleanup_exceptions() runs before bpf_check_cfg(), whose walk
consumes what it produces. It refuses a table on an offloaded program, on
one whose JIT cannot dispatch landing pads or was not asked to compile it,
and on one that also installs an exception callback -- two different
answers to what runs on the way out. What survives is marked jit_required:
the interpreter cannot dispatch a pad. bpf_jit_supports_cleanup_pads() is
weak here and says no; the arch patches provide the real ones.
