Xu Kuohai 7db6c0f1d8 bpf, arm64: Optimize BPF store/load using arm64 str/ldr(immediate offset)
The current BPF store/load instruction is translated by the JIT into two
instructions. The first instruction moves the immediate offset into a
temporary register. The second instruction uses this temporary register
to do the real store/load.

In fact, arm64 supports addressing with immediate offsets. So This patch
introduces optimization that uses arm64 str/ldr instruction with immediate
offset when the offset fits.

Example of generated instuction for r2 = *(u64 *)(r1 + 0):

without optimization:
mov x10, 0
ldr x1, [x0, x10]

with optimization:
ldr x1, [x0, 0]

If the offset is negative, or is not aligned correctly, or exceeds max
value, rollback to the use of temporary register.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
