Alexei Starovoitov 142fd4d2dc bpf: Add x86-64 JIT support for bpf_addr_space_cast instruction.
LLVM generates bpf_addr_space_cast instruction while translating
pointers between native (zero) address space and
__attribute__((address_space(N))).
The addr_space=1 is reserved as bpf_arena address space.

rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 0, 1) is processed by the verifier and
converted to normal 32-bit move: wX = wY

rY = addr_space_cast(rX, 1, 0) has to be converted by JIT:

aux_reg = upper_32_bits of arena->user_vm_start
aux_reg <<= 32
wX = wY // clear upper 32 bits of dst register
if (wX) // if not zero add upper bits of user_vm_start
  wX |= aux_reg

JIT can do it more efficiently:

mov dst_reg32, src_reg32  // 32-bit move
shl dst_reg, 32
or dst_reg, user_vm_start
rol dst_reg, 32
xor r11, r11
test dst_reg32, dst_reg32 // check if lower 32-bit are zero
cmove r11, dst_reg	  // if so, set dst_reg to zero
			  // Intel swapped src/dst register encoding in CMOVcc

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.
