With the introduction of commit 7bdbf7446305 ("bpf: add special
internal-only MOV instruction to resolve per-CPU addrs"),
a new BPF instruction BPF_MOV64_PERCPU_REG has been added to
resolve absolute addresses of per-CPU data from their per-CPU
offsets. This update requires enabling support for this
instruction in the powerpc JIT compiler.
As of commit 7a0268fa1a36 ("[PATCH] powerpc/64: per cpu data
optimisations"), the per-CPU data offset for the CPU is stored in
the paca.
To support this BPF instruction in the powerpc JIT, the following
powerpc instructions are emitted:
ld tmp1_reg, 48(13) //Load per-CPU data offset from paca(r13) in tmp1_reg.
add dst_reg, src_reg, tmp1_reg //Add the per cpu offset to the dst.
mr dst_reg, src_reg //Move src_reg to dst_reg, if src_reg != dst_reg
To evaluate the performance improvements introduced by this change,
the benchmark described in [1] was employed.
Before Change:
glob-arr-inc : 41.580 ± 0.034M/s
arr-inc : 39.592 ± 0.055M/s
hash-inc : 25.873 ± 0.012M/s
After Change:
glob-arr-inc : 42.024 ± 0.049M/s
arr-inc : 55.447 ± 0.031M/s
hash-inc : 26.565 ± 0.014M/s
