    net: filter: Just In Time compiler for x86-64 · 0a14842f
    Eric Dumazet authored
    In order to speedup packet filtering, here is an implementation of a
    JIT compiler for x86_64
    
    It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin.
    
    echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
    
    It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text
    kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.
    
    EAX : BPF A accumulator
    EBX : BPF X accumulator
    RDI : pointer to skb   (first argument given to JIT function)
    RBP : frame pointer (even if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n)
    r9d : skb->len - skb->data_len (headlen)
    r8  : skb->data
    
    To get a trace of generated code, use :
    
    echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
    
    Example of generated code :
    
    # tcpdump -p -n -s 0 -i eth1 host 192.168.20.0/24
    
    flen=18 proglen=147 pass=3 image=ffffffffa00b5000

    BPF program is 144 bytes long, so native program is almost same size ;)
