We need to fixup bpf_jit32.h: #ifdef CONFIG_SMP #ifdef CONFIG_PPC64 #define PPC_BPF_LOAD_CPU(r) \ do { BUILD_BUG_ON(FIELD_SIZEOF(struct paca_struct, paca_index) != 2); \ PPC_LHZ_OFFS(r, 13, offsetof(struct paca_struct, paca_index)); \ } while (0) #else #define PPC_BPF_LOAD_CPU(r) \ do { BUILD_BUG_ON(FIELD_SIZEOF(struct thread_info, cpu) != 4); \ PPC_LHZ_OFFS(r, (1 & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1)), \ offsetof(struct thread_info, cpu)); \ } while(0) #endif #else #define PPC_BPF_LOAD_CPU(r) do { PPC_LI(r, 0); } while(0) #endif cheers
