From: Pu Lehui <pulehui@huawei.com>

In the current RV64 JIT, if we just don't initialize the TCC in subprog,
the TCC can be propagated from the parent process to the subprocess, but
the TCC of the parent process cannot be restored when the subprocess
exits. Since the RV64 TCC is initialized before saving the callee saved
registers into the stack, we cannot use the callee saved register to
pass the TCC, otherwise the original value of the callee saved register
will be destroyed. So we implemented mixing bpf2bpf and tailcalls
similar to x86_64, i.e. using a non-callee saved register to transfer
the TCC between functions, and saving that register to the stack to
protect the TCC value. At the same time, we also consider the scenario
of mixing trampoline.

Tests test_bpf.ko and test_verifier have passed, as well as the relative
testcases of test_progs*.

Breaks the build:

Probably should have specified, happens with allmodconfig, but not a
defconfig build.

I see. I did check the cover to see if there was anything relevant
there, like a link or base commit, but since there were neither I opted
to pass on the warning from the patchwork automation we have :)

Thanks & sorry for the noise on this one.

Thanks,
Conor.

Thanks, maybe it should be better to attach it to the cover.

Hi!

The RISC-V JIT tries to minimize the stack usage, e.g. it doesn't have a
fixed pro/epilogue like some of the other JITs. I think we can do better
here, so that the pass-TCC-via-register can be used, and the additional
stack access can be avoided.

Today, the TCC is passed via a register (a6) and can be viewed as a
"state" variable/transparent argument/return value. As you point out, we
loose this when we do a call. On (any) calls we move the TCC to a
callee-saved register.

WDYT about the following scheme:

1 Pickup the arm64 bpf2bpf/tailmix mechanism of just clearing the TCC
  for the main program.
2 For BPF helper calls, move TCC to s6, perform the call, and restore
  a6. Dito for kfunc calls (BPF_PSEUDO_KFUNC_CALL).
3 For all other calls, a6 is passed transparently.

For 2 bpf_jit_get_func_addr() can be used to determine if the callee is
a BPF helper or not.

In summary; Determine in the JIT if we're leaving BPF-land, and need to
move the TCC to a callee-saved reg, or not, and save us a bunch of stack
store/loads.

Valuable scheme. But we need to consider TCC back propagation. Let me 
show an example of calling subprog with TCC stored in A6:

prog1(TCC==1){
     subprog1(TCC==1)
         -> tailcall1(TCC==0)
             -> subprog2(TCC==0)
     subprog3(TCC==0) <--- should be TCC==1
         -\-> tailcall2 <--- can't be called
}

We call prog1 and TCC is 1. prog1 has two subprogs, subprog1 and 
subprog3. subprog1 calls tailcall1 and TCC become to 0. tailcall1 call 
subprog2 and then return to prog1 with TCC is 0. At this time, subprog3 
cannot call tailcall2 because TCC is 0. But TCC should be 1 here.

The question is A6 cannot be saved and restored, that is why I saved A6 
in stack at prologue, and restored at epilogue.

Sorry guys. This will emit double times when `flags & 
BPF_TRAMP_F_CALL_ORIG`. Will fix it in next version.

Huh, I'm not following, and I don't see the issue. Help me out! You're
only allowed to do X tail calls "globally" for a BPF context, right? So
in the example you're outlining above, tailcall2 shouldn't be allowed to
be called.

Let's back with this example again. Imagine that the tailcall chain is a 
list limited to 33 elements. When the list has 32 elements, we call 
subprog1 and then tailcall1. At this time, the list elements count 
becomes 33. Then we call subprog2 and return prog1. At this time, the 
list removes 1 element and becomes 32 elements. At this time, there 
still can perform 1 tailcall.

I've attached a diagram that shows mixing tailcall and subprogs is 
nearly a "call". It can return to caller function.

Hmm. Let me put my Q in another way.

The kernel calls into BPF_PROG_RUN() (~a BPF context). Would it ever be
OK to do more than 33 tail calls, regardless of subprogs or not?

In your example, TCC is 1. You are allowed to perform one tail call. In
your example prog1 performs two.

My view of TCC has always been ~a counter of the number of tailcalls~.

With your example expanded:
prog1(TCC==33){
      subprog1(TCC==33)
          -> tailcall1(TCC==33) -> tailcall1(TCC==32) -> tailcall1(TCC==31) -> ... // 33 times
      // Lehui says TCC should be 33 again.
      // Björn says "it's the number of tailcalls", and subprog3 cannot perform a tail call
      subprog3(TCC==?)
          
My view has, again, been than TCC is a run-time count of the number
tailcalls (fentry/fexit patch bpf-programs included).

What does x86 and arm64 do?

Yes, my view is take this something like a stack,while you take this as 
a fixed global value.

prog1(TCC==33){
     subprog1(TCC==33)
         -> tailcall1(TCC==33) -> tailcall1(TCC==32) -> 
tailcall1(TCC==31) -> ... // 33 times -> subprog2(TCC==0)
     subprog3(TCC==33)
	-> tailcall1(TCC==33) -> tailcall1(TCC==32) -> tailcall1(TCC==31) -> 
... // 33 times

When subprog return back to caller bpf program, they both restore TCC to 
the value when enter into subprog. The ARM64 uses the callee saved 
register to store the TCC. When the ARM64 exits, the TCC is restored to 
the value when it enter. The while x86 uses the stack to do the same thing.

Ok! Thanks for clarifying. I'll continue reviewing the v2 of your
series!

BTW, I wonder if we can trigger this [1] on RV64 -- i.e. calling the
main prog, will reset the tcc count.

Yes, I have been paying attention to this matter recently and will 
allocate time to analyze it.
