LoongArch: BPF: Optimize 32-bit operations using native instructions
Currently, the LoongArch BPF JIT emits numerous redundant zero and sign extensions across 32-bit operations, bloating the final JIT image size and also leading to runtime overhead, particularly in the division and modulo operations. Thus, it is necessary to optimize 32-bit operations by emitting LoongArch native 32-bit word instructions. For general ALU32 operations, utilize native 32-bit word instructions for core calculations. Given that the BPF spec requires the upper 32 bits of the destination register to be zero-extended upon completion, use a unified 'bstrpickd' instruction to clear the upper 32 bits at the common exit of build_insn(), while immediate loads are optimized via (u32) casting to bypass the trailing extension. According to the LoongArch Reference Manual, native 32-bit division and modulo instructions (DIV.W[U] and MOD.W[U]) require the upper 33 bits [63:31] of both input operands to be all 0s or all 1s (0x0 or 0x1ffffffff), that is to say, they need to be properly sign-extended by the software on CPU cores without the DIV32 feature. Otherwise, the 32-bit division and modulo instructions will trigger undefined hardware behaviors and return unexpected values. To ensure both performance and hardware compatibility, leverage the newly introduced 'cpu_has_div32' helper: (1) on newer CPUs with DIV32, emit native 32-bit div/mod instructions directly for optimal performance; (2) on older CPUs without DIV32, sign-extend the destination register in place and the source register into a temporary register via 'addw' before executing the native 32-bit div/mod instructions. Note that the JIT compiler must never alter the state of the src register because it remains read-only for the duration of the instruction. For JMP32 conditional branches, the source operands may originate from 64-bit contexts where the upper 32 bits contain arbitrary data, so use 6 independent case structures to prevent 64-bit comparison inversions. Furthermore, use 'bstrpickd' to mask out upper bits for unsigned JMP32, and 'addw' with GPR_ZERO to re-align sign bits for signed JMP32. With this patch, the emit_{zext, sext}_32() and is_signed_bpf_cond() helpers are completely wiped out from the header and source files, delivering a native execution stream with a reduced JIT image size, especially for division and mod operations. All of the testcases of test_bpf passed on Loongson-3A6000 (with DIV32) and Loongson-3A5000 (without DIV32), here are the test results: $ sudo modprobe test_bpf $ dmesg -t | grep Summary test_bpf: Summary: 1061 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [1049/1049 JIT'ed] test_bpf: test_tail_calls: Summary: 10 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [10/10 JIT'ed] test_bpf: test_skb_segment: Summary: 2 PASSED, 0 FAILED For the BPF selftests test_verifier and test_progs, there are no any regressions.
