With CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE enabled on powerpc, ftrace_location_range
returns ftrace location for bpf_fentry_test1 at offset of 4 bytes from
function entry. This is because branch to _mcount function is at offset
of 4 bytes in function profile sequence.
To fix this, add entry_offset of 4 bytes while verifying the address for
kprobe entry address of bpf_fentry_test1 in verify_perf_link_info in
selftest, when CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is enabled.
Disassemble of bpf_fentry_test1:
c000000000e4b080 <bpf_fentry_test1>:
c000000000e4b080: a6 02 08 7c mflr r0
c000000000e4b084: b9 e2 22 4b bl c00000000007933c <_mcount>
c000000000e4b088: 01 00 63 38 addi r3,r3,1
c000000000e4b08c: b4 07 63 7c extsw r3,r3
c000000000e4b090: 20 00 80 4e blr
When CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE [1] is enabled, these function profile
sequence is moved out of line with an unconditional branch at offset 0.
So, the test works without altering the offset for
'CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE && CONFIG_PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE' case.

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 reStructuredText 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.
