eBPF opcode encoding
--------------------
eBPF is reusing most of the opcode encoding from classic to simplify conversion
of classic BPF to eBPF. For arithmetic and jump instructions the 8-bit 'code'
field is divided into three parts:
+----------------+--------+--------------------+
| 4 bits | 1 bit | 3 bits |
| operation code | source | instruction class |
+----------------+--------+--------------------+
(MSB) (LSB)
Three LSB bits store instruction class which is one of:
Classic BPF classes: eBPF classes:
BPF_LD 0x00 BPF_LD 0x00
BPF_LDX 0x01 BPF_LDX 0x01
BPF_ST 0x02 BPF_ST 0x02
BPF_STX 0x03 BPF_STX 0x03
BPF_ALU 0x04 BPF_ALU 0x04
BPF_JMP 0x05 BPF_JMP 0x05
BPF_RET 0x06 [ class 6 unused, for future if needed ]
BPF_MISC 0x07 BPF_ALU64 0x07
When BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_ALU or BPF_JMP, 4th bit encodes source operand ...
BPF_K 0x00
BPF_X 0x08
* in classic BPF, this means:
BPF_SRC(code) == BPF_X - use register X as source operand
BPF_SRC(code) == BPF_K - use 32-bit immediate as source operand
* in eBPF, this means:
BPF_SRC(code) == BPF_X - use 'src_reg' register as source operand
BPF_SRC(code) == BPF_K - use 32-bit immediate as source operand
... and four MSB bits store operation code.
If BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_ALU or BPF_ALU64 [ in eBPF ], BPF_OP(code) is one of:
BPF_ADD 0x00
BPF_SUB 0x10
BPF_MUL 0x20
BPF_DIV 0x30
BPF_OR 0x40
BPF_AND 0x50
BPF_LSH 0x60
BPF_RSH 0x70
BPF_NEG 0x80
BPF_MOD 0x90
BPF_XOR 0xa0
BPF_MOV 0xb0 /* eBPF only: mov reg to reg */
BPF_ARSH 0xc0 /* eBPF only: sign extending shift right */
BPF_END 0xd0 /* eBPF only: endianness conversion */
If BPF_CLASS(code) == BPF_JMP, BPF_OP(code) is one of:
BPF_JA 0x00
BPF_JEQ 0x10
BPF_JGT 0x20
BPF_JGE 0x30
BPF_JSET 0x40
BPF_JNE 0x50 /* eBPF only: jump != */
BPF_JSGT 0x60 /* eBPF only: signed '>' */
BPF_JSGE 0x70 /* eBPF only: signed '>=' */
BPF_CALL 0x80 /* eBPF only: function call */
BPF_EXIT 0x90 /* eBPF only: function return */
So BPF_ADD | BPF_X | BPF_ALU means 32-bit addition in both classic BPF
and eBPF. There are only two registers in classic BPF, so it means A += X.
In eBPF it means dst_reg = (u32) dst_reg + (u32) src_reg; similarly,
BPF_XOR | BPF_K | BPF_ALU means A ^= imm32 in classic BPF and analogous
src_reg = (u32) src_reg ^ (u32) imm32 in eBPF.
Classic BPF is using BPF_MISC class to represent A = X and X = A moves.
eBPF is using BPF_MOV | BPF_X | BPF_ALU code instead. Since there are no
BPF_MISC operations in eBPF, the class 7 is used as BPF_ALU64 to mean
exactly the same operations as BPF_ALU, but with 64-bit wide operands
instead. So BPF_ADD | BPF_X | BPF_ALU64 means 64-bit addition, i.e.:
dst_reg = dst_reg + src_reg
Classic BPF wastes the whole BPF_RET class to represent a single 'ret'
operation. Classic BPF_RET | BPF_K means copy imm32 into return register
and perform function exit. eBPF is modeled to match CPU, so BPF_JMP | BPF_EXIT
in eBPF means function exit only. The eBPF program needs to store return
value into register R0 before doing a BPF_EXIT. Class 6 in eBPF is currently
unused and reserved for future use.
For load and store instructions the 8-bit 'code' field is divided as:
+--------+--------+-------------------+
| 3 bits | 2 bits | 3 bits |
| mode | size | instruction class |
+--------+--------+-------------------+
(MSB) (LSB)
Size modifier is one of ...
BPF_W 0x00 /* word */
BPF_H 0x08 /* half word */
BPF_B 0x10 /* byte */
BPF_DW 0x18 /* eBPF only, double word */
... which encodes size of load/store operation:
B - 1 byte
H - 2 byte
W - 4 byte
DW - 8 byte (eBPF only)
Mode modifier is one of:
BPF_IMM 0x00 /* classic BPF only, reserved in eBPF */
BPF_ABS 0x20
BPF_IND 0x40
BPF_MEM 0x60
BPF_LEN 0x80 /* classic BPF only, reserved in eBPF */
BPF_MSH 0xa0 /* classic BPF only, reserved in eBPF */
BPF_XADD 0xc0 /* eBPF only, exclusive add */
eBPF has two non-generic instructions: (BPF_ABS | <size> | BPF_LD) and
(BPF_IND | <size> | BPF_LD) which are used to access packet data.
They had to be carried over from classic to have strong performance of
socket filters running in eBPF interpreter. These instructions can only
be used when interpreter context is a pointer to 'struct sk_buff' and
have seven implicit operands. Register R6 is an implicit input that must
contain pointer to sk_buff. Register R0 is an implicit output which contains
the data fetched from the packet. Registers R1-R5 are scratch registers
and must not be used to store the data across BPF_ABS | BPF_LD or
BPF_IND | BPF_LD instructions.
These instructions have implicit program exit condition as well. When
eBPF program is trying to access the data beyond the packet boundary,
the interpreter will abort the execution of the program. JIT compilers
therefore must preserve this property. src_reg and imm32 fields are
explicit inputs to these instructions.
For example:
BPF_IND | BPF_W | BPF_LD means:
R0 = ntohl(*(u32 *) (((struct sk_buff *) R6)->data + src_reg + imm32))
and R1 - R5 were scratched.
Unlike classic BPF instruction set, eBPF has generic load/store operations:
BPF_MEM | <size> | BPF_STX: *(size *) (dst_reg + off) = src_reg
BPF_MEM | <size> | BPF_ST: *(size *) (dst_reg + off) = imm32
BPF_MEM | <size> | BPF_LDX: dst_reg = *(size *) (src_reg + off)
BPF_XADD | BPF_W | BPF_STX: lock xadd *(u32 *)(dst_reg + off16) += src_reg
BPF_XADD | BPF_DW | BPF_STX: lock xadd *(u64 *)(dst_reg + off16) += src_reg
Where size is one of: BPF_B or BPF_H or BPF_W or BPF_DW. Note that 1 and
2 byte atomic increments are not supported.
