Daniel Borkmann a493a87f38 bpf, x64: implement retpoline for tail call
Implement a retpoline [0] for the BPF tail call JIT'ing that converts
the indirect jump via jmp %rax that is used to make the long jump into
another JITed BPF image. Since this is subject to speculative execution,
we need to control the transient instruction sequence here as well
when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is set, and direct it into a pause + lfence loop.
The latter aligns also with what gcc / clang emits (e.g. [1]).

JIT dump after patch:

  # bpftool p d x i 1
   0: (18) r2 = map[id:1]
   2: (b7) r3 = 0
   3: (85) call bpf_tail_call#12
   4: (b7) r0 = 2
   5: (95) exit

With CONFIG_RETPOLINE:

  # bpftool p d j i 1
  [...]
  33:	cmp    %edx,0x24(%rsi)
  36:	jbe    0x0000000000000072  |*
  38:	mov    0x24(%rbp),%eax
  3e:	cmp    $0x20,%eax
  41:	ja     0x0000000000000072  |
  43:	add    $0x1,%eax
  46:	mov    %eax,0x24(%rbp)
  4c:	mov    0x90(%rsi,%rdx,8),%rax
  54:	test   %rax,%rax
  57:	je     0x0000000000000072  |
  59:	mov    0x28(%rax),%rax
  5d:	add    $0x25,%rax
  61:	callq  0x000000000000006d  |+
  66:	pause                      |
  68:	lfence                     |
  6b:	jmp    0x0000000000000066  |
  6d:	mov    %rax,(%rsp)         |
  71:	retq                       |
  72:	mov    $0x2,%eax
  [...]

  * relative fall-through jumps in error case
  + retpoline for indirect jump

Without CONFIG_RETPOLINE:

  # bpftool p d j i 1
  [...]
  33:	cmp    %edx,0x24(%rsi)
  36:	jbe    0x0000000000000063  |*
  38:	mov    0x24(%rbp),%eax
  3e:	cmp    $0x20,%eax
  41:	ja     0x0000000000000063  |
  43:	add    $0x1,%eax
  46:	mov    %eax,0x24(%rbp)
  4c:	mov    0x90(%rsi,%rdx,8),%rax
  54:	test   %rax,%rax
  57:	je     0x0000000000000063  |
  59:	mov    0x28(%rax),%rax
  5d:	add    $0x25,%rax
  61:	jmpq   *%rax               |-
  63:	mov    $0x2,%eax
  [...]

  * relative fall-through jumps in error case
  - plain indirect jump as before

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
