Hi Puranjay,

Happy to see the RV64 pack allocator implementation.

RV32 also

Use bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc() for memory management of JIT binaries in
RISCV BPF JIT. The bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc creates a pair of RW and RX
buffers. The JIT writes the program into the RW buffer. When the JIT is
done, the program is copied to the final RX buffer with
bpf_jit_binary_pack_finalize.

Implement bpf_arch_text_copy() and bpf_arch_text_invalidate() for RISCV
JIT as these functions are required by bpf_jit_binary_pack allocator.

In fact, the definition of w/ or w/o ro_ still looks a bit confusing.
Maybe it is better for us not to change the current framework, as the
current `image` is the final executed RX image, and the trampoline
treats `image` as the same. Maybe it would be better to add a new RW
image, such like `rw_iamge`, so that we do not break the existing
framework and do not have to add too many comments.

I had thought about this and decided to create a new _ro image/header
and not _rw image/header. Here is my reasoning:
If we let the existing insns, header be considered the read_only
version from where the
program will run, and create new rw_insn and rw_header for doing the jit process
it would require a lot more changes to the framework.
functions like build_body(), bpf_jit_build_prologue(), etc. work on
ctx->insns and

Hmm, the other parts should be fine, but the emit instruction is a
problem. All right, let's go ahead.

now all these references would have to be changed to ctx->rw_insns.

Howsoever we implement this, there is no way to do it without changing
the current framework.
The crux of the problem is that we need to use the r/w area for
writing and the r/x area for calculating
offsets.

If you think this can be done in a more efficient way then I would
love to implement that, but all other
solutions that I tried made the code very difficult to follow.


And any other parts, it looks great.😄

ctx->insns need to sync to ctx->ro_insns

Can you elaborate this more. I am missing something here.
The sync happens at the end by calling bpf_jit_binary_pack_finalize().

if (addr && ctx->insns) {
ip = (u64)(long)(ctx->ro_insns + ctx->ninsns);
off = addr - ip;
}
emit ctx->insns + off

Here we are assuming ctx->insns == ctx->ro_insns, if they not, the
offset calculated by ctx->ro_insns will not meaningful for ctx->insns.

We are not assuming that ctx->insns == ctx->ro_insns at this point.
We are just finding the offset: off = addr(let's say in kernel) -
ip(address of the instruction);

I was curious why we need to use ro_insns to calculate offset? Is that
any problem if we do jit iteration with ctx->insns and the final copy
ctx->insns to ro_insns?

All the offsets within the image can be calculated using ctx->insns and it will
work but if the emit_call() is for an address in the kernel code let's
say, then the
offset between this address(in kernel) and the R/W image would be different from
the offset between the address(in kernel) and the R/O image.
We need the offset between the R/X Image and the kernel address. Because the
CPU will execute the instructions from there.

Agree with that, thanks for explaination. Let's talk about my original idea, shall we add check like this to reject ctx->ro_insns == NULL?

ctx->ro_insns need to be checked also.

ctx->ro_insns is not initialised until we call bpf_jit_binary_pack_finalize()?

ctx->ro_insns and ctx->insns are both allocated together by
bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc().
ctx->ro_insns is marked R/X and ctx->insns is marked R/W. We dump all
instructions in
ctx->insns and then copy them to ctx->ro_insns with
bpf_jit_binary_pack_finalize().

The catch is that instructions that work with offsets like JAL need
the offsets from ctx->ro_insns.
as explained above.


if (!ctx->insns || !ctx->prog->aux->extable ||
...
pc = (unsigned long)&ctx->ro_insns[ctx->ninsns - insn_len];

Also here, to add check like this to reject ctx->ro_insns == NULL which may cause null pointer dereference?

if (!ctx->insns || !ctx->ro_insns || !ctx->prog->aux->extable ||


The uninitialized ctx->ro_insns may lead to illegal address access.
Although it will never happen, because we also assume that ctx->insns ==
ctx->ro_insns.

Here also we are not assuming ctx->insns == ctx->ro_insns. The ctx->ro_insns is
allocated but not initialised yet. So all addresses in range
ctx->ro_insns to ctx->ro_insns + size
are valid addresses. Here we are using the addresses only to find the
offset and not accessing those
addresses.
