2024-01-29bpf: there is no ldinddw nor ldabsdw instructionsJose E. Marchesi1-8/+0
There are no legacy ldind nor ldabs BPF instructions with BPF_SIZE_DW. For some reason we were (incorrectly) supporting these. This patch updates the opcodes so the instructions get removed and modifies the GAS manual and testsuite accordingly.

Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover bfd/ax_tls.m4, and adds gprofng to dirs handled automatically, then updates copyright messages as follows: 1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights. 2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite files (which should have their copyright message removed). 3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes. 4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
2023-11-30gas: support double-slash line comments in BPF assemblyJose E. Marchesi1-2/+2
This patch makes the BPF assembler to support double-slash line comments, like the llvm BPF assembler does. At this point both assemblers support the same commenting styles: - Line comments preceded by # or //. - Non-nestable block comments delimited by /* and */. This patch also adds a couple of tests to make sure all the comment styles work in both normal and pseudoc syntax. The manual is also updated to mention double-slash line comments.
2023-11-28gas: change meaning of ; in the BPF assemblerJose E. Marchesi1-3/+10

2023-08-21bpf: correct neg and neg32 instruction encodingDavid Faust1-16/+0
The neg/neg32 BPF instructions always use BPF_SRC_K (=0) in their header source bit, despite operating on registers. If BPF_SRC_X (=1) is set, the instructions are rejected by the kernel. Because of this there are also no neg/neg32 instructions which operate on immediates, so remove them. bd434cc4d94ec3d2f9fc1e7c00c27b074f962bc1 was a similar fix in the old CGEN-based port, but was not carried forward in the new port. include/ * opcode/bpf.h (enum bpf_insn_id): Remove spurious entries BPF_INSN_NEGI and BPF_INSN_NEG32I. opcodes/ * bpf-opc.c (bpf_opcodes): Remove erroneous NEGI and NEG32I instructions. gas/ * doc/c-bpf.texi (BPF Instructions): Remove erroneous neg and neg32 instructions operating on immediates. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu.s: Adapt accordingly. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu-be.d: Likewise * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32.s: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32-be.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu-pseudoc.s: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu-pseudoc.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu-be-pseudoc.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32-pseudoc.s: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32-pseudoc.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/alu32-be-pseudoc.d: Likewise.
2023-08-17bpf: gas: consolidate handling of immediate overflowsJose E. Marchesi1-0/+8
This commit changes the BPF GAS port in order to handle immediate overflows the same way than the clang BPF assembler: - For an immediate field of N bits, any written number (positive or negative) whose two's complement encoding fit in N its is accepted. This means that -2 is the same than 0xffffffe. It is up to the instructions to decide how to interpret the encoded value. - Immediate fields in jump instructions are no longer relaxed. Relaxing to jump instructions with wider range is only performed when expressions are involved. - The manual is updated to document this, and testsuite adapted accordingly.

2023-07-28bpf: gas: support relaxation of V4 jump instructionsJose E. Marchesi1-0/+4
The BPF jump-always instruction (JA), like all other jump instructions in the ISA, get a signed 16-bit displacement target argument denoted in number of 64-bit words minus one. This can sometimes be overflown. The BPF V4 ISA thus introduced support for a jump-always instruction (JAL) that gets a signed 32-bit displacement instead. This patch makes the BPF assembler to perform the following relaxations when the disp16 field gets overflown, unless the option -mno-relax is specified: JA disp16 -> JAL disp32 Jxx disp16 -> Jxx +1; JA +1; JAL disp32 Documentation and tests added.

2023-07-21DesCGENization of the BPF binutils portJose E. Marchesi1-293/+497
CGEN is cool, but the BPF architecture is simply too bizarre for it. The weird way of BPF to handle endianness in instruction encoding, the weird C-like alternative assembly syntax, the weird abuse of multi-byte (or infra-byte) instruction fields as opcodes, the unusual presence of opcodes beyond the first 32-bits of some instructions, are all examples of what makes it a PITA to continue using CGEN for this port. The bpf.cpu file is becoming so complex and so nested with p-macros that it is very difficult to read, and quite challenging to update. Also, every time we are forced to change something in CGEN to accommodate BPF requirements (which is often) we have to do extensive testing to make sure we do not break any other target using CGEN. This is getting un-maintenable. So I have decided to bite the bullet and revamp/rewrite the port so it no longer uses CGEN. Overall, this involved: * To remove the cpu/bpf.{cpu,opc} descriptions. * To remove the CGEN generated files. * To replace the CGEN generated opcodes table with a new hand-written opcodes table for BPF. * To replace the CGEN generated disassembler wih a new disassembler that uses the new opcodes. * To replace the CGEN generated assembler with a new assembler that uses the new opcodes. * To replace the CGEN generated simulator with a new simulator that uses the new opcodes. [This is pushed in GDB in another patch.] * To adapt the build systems to the new situation. Additionally, this patch introduces some extensions and improvements: * A new BPF relocation BPF_RELOC_BPF_DISP16 plus corresponding ELF relocation R_BPF_GNU_64_16 are added to the BPF BFD port. These relocations are used for section-relative 16-bit offsets used in load/store instructions. * The disassembler now has support for the "pseudo-c" assembly syntax of BPF. What dialect to use when disassembling is controlled by a command line option. * The disassembler now has support for dumping instruction immediates in either octal, hexadecimal or decimal. The used output base is controlled by a new command-line option. * The GAS BPF test suite has been re-structured and expanded in order to test the disassembler pseudoc syntax support. Minor bugs have been also fixed there. The assembler generic tests that were disabled for bpf-*-* targets due to the previous implementation of pseudoc syntax are now re-enabled. Additional tests have been added to test the new features of the assembler. .dump files are no longer used. * The linker BPF test suite has been adapted to the command line options used by the new disassembler. The result is very satisfactory. This patchs adds 3448 lines of code and removes 10542 lines of code. Tested in: * Target bpf-unknown-none with 64-bit little-endian host and 32-bit little-endian host. * Target x86-64-linux-gnu with --enable-targets=all Note that I have not tested in a big-endian host yet. I will do so once this lands upstream so I can use the GCC compiler farm. I have not included ChangeLog entries in this patch: these would be massive and not very useful, considering this is pretty much a rewrite of the port. I beg the indulgence of the global maintainers.

The names for the directives have been chosen to be coherent with the suffixes used in eBPF instructions: b, h, w and dw for 8, 16, 32 and 64-bit values respectively. Documentation and tests included. Tested in a x86_64 host. gas/ChangeLog: 2019-07-17 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> * config/tc-bpf.c (md_pseudo_table): .half, .word and .dword. * testsuite/gas/bpf/data.s: New file. * testsuite/gas/bpf/data.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/data-be.d: Likewise. * testsuite/gas/bpf/bpf.exp: Run data and data-be. * doc/c-bpf.texi (BPF Directives): New section.
2019-07-15cpu,opcodes,gas: fix explicit arguments to eBPF ldabs instructionsJose E. Marchesi1-8/+8
This patch fixes the eBPF CPU description in order to reflect the right explicit arguments passed to the ldabs{b,h,w,dw} instructions, updates the corresponding GAS tests, and updates the BPF section of the GAS manual. cpu/ChangeLog: 2019-07-15 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> * bpf.cpu (dlabs): New pmacro. (dlind): Likewise. opcodes/ChangeLog: 2019-07-15 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> * bpf-desc.c: Regenerate. * bpf-opc.c: Likewise. * bpf-opc.h: Likewise. gas/ChangeLog: 2019-07-15 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com> * testsuite/gas/bpf/mem.s: ldabs instructions do not take a `src' register as an argument. * testsuite/gas/bpf/mem.d: Updated accordingly. * testsuite/gas/bpf/mem-be.d: Likewise. * doc/c-bpf.texi (BPF Opcodes): Update to reflect the correct explicit arguments to ldabs and ldind instructions.
