From d639b9d13a39cf15639cbe6e8b2c43eb60148a73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hao Luo Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 16:31:44 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] bpf: Introduce composable reg, ret and arg types. There are some common properties shared between bpf reg, ret and arg values. For instance, a value may be a NULL pointer, or a pointer to a read-only memory. Previously, to express these properties, enumeration was used. For example, in order to test whether a reg value can be NULL, reg_type_may_be_null() simply enumerates all types that are possibly NULL. The problem of this approach is that it's not scalable and causes a lot of duplication. These properties can be combined, for example, a type could be either MAYBE_NULL or RDONLY, or both. This patch series rewrites the layout of reg_type, arg_type and ret_type, so that common properties can be extracted and represented as composable flag. For example, one can write ARG_PTR_TO_MEM | PTR_MAYBE_NULL which is equivalent to the previous ARG_PTR_TO_MEM_OR_NULL The type ARG_PTR_TO_MEM are called "base type" in this patch. Base types can be extended with flags. A flag occupies the higher bits while base types sits in the lower bits. This patch in particular sets up a set of macro for this purpose. The following patches will rewrite arg_types, ret_types and reg_types respectively.
