This commit introduces attribute bpf_fastcall to declare BPF functions that do not clobber some of the caller saved registers (R0-R5). The idea is to generate the code complying with generic BPF ABI, but allow compatible Linux Kernel to remove unnecessary spills and fills of non-scratched registers (given some compiler assistance). For such functions do register allocation as-if caller saved registers are not clobbered, but later wrap the calls with spill and fill patterns that are simple to recognize in kernel. For example for the following C code: #define __bpf_fastcall __attribute__((bpf_fastcall)) void bar(void) __bpf_fastcall; void buz(long i, long j, long k); void foo(long i, long j, long k) { bar(); buz(i, j, k); } First allocate registers as if: foo: call bar # note: no spills for i,j,k (r1,r2,r3) call buz exit And later insert spills fills on the peephole phase: foo: *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) = r1; # Such call pattern is *(u64 *)(r10 - 16) = r2; # correct when used with *(u64 *)(r10 - 24) = r3; # old kernels. call bar r3 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 24); # But also allows new r2 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 16); # kernels to recognize the r1 = *(u64 *)(r10 - 8); # pattern and remove spills/fills. call buz exit The offsets for generated spills/fills are picked as minimal stack offsets for the function. Allocated stack slots are not used for any other purposes, in order to simplify in-kernel analysis.
