[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/8] eBPF arm64 JIT support

[jerinj at marvell.com]

From: Jerin Jacob <jerinj at marvell.com>

Added eBPF arm64 JIT support to improve the eBPF program performance
on arm64.

dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.c application shows around 50% improvement
on OCTEON TX2 platform in JIT vs interpreter mode.

Verified the implementation using existing bpf_autotest application.

# echo "bpf_autotest" | sudo ./build/app/test -c 0x3

RTE>>bpf_autotest
run_test(test_store1) start
run_test(test_store2) start
run_test(test_load1) start
run_test(test_ldimm1) start
run_test(test_mul1) start
run_test(test_shift1) start
run_test(test_jump1) start
run_test(test_alu1) start
run_test(test_bele1) start
run_test(test_xadd1) start
run_test(test_div1) start
bpf_exec(0xffffa37c0000): division by 0 at pc: 0x68;
run_test(test_call1) start
run_test(test_call2) start
run_test(test_call3) start
Test OK
