For v4 instruction set LLVM is allowed to generate indirect jumps for
switch statements and for 'goto *rX' assembly. Every such a jump will
be accompanied by necessary metadata, e.g. (`llvm-objdump -Sr ...`):
0: r2 = 0x0 ll
0000000000000030: R_BPF_64_64 BPF.JT.0.0
Here BPF.JT.1.0 is a symbol residing in the .jumptables section:
Symbol table:
4: 0000000000000000 240 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 4 BPF.JT.0.0
The -bpf-min-jump-table-entries llvm option may be used to control the
minimal size of a switch which will be converted to an indirect jumps.
