This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled x86: bpf_jit: fix compilation of large bpf programs to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11-ckt22. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 64a3d0b7bfdfa2b98ac0fdd1354212bc21a32eff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Date: Fri, 22 May 2015 15:42:55 -0700 Subject: x86: bpf_jit: fix compilation of large bpf programs [ Upstream commit 3f7352bf21f8fd7ba3e2fcef9488756f188e12be ] x86 has variable length encoding. x86 JIT compiler is trying to pick the shortest encoding for given bpf instruction. While doing so the jump targets are changing, so JIT is doing multiple passes over the program. Typical program needs 3 passes. Some very short programs converge with 2 passes. Large programs may need 4 or 5. But specially crafted bpf programs may hit the pass limit and if the program converges on the last iteration the JIT compiler will be producing an image full of 'int 3' insns. Fix this corner case by doing final iteration over bpf program.
