Peilin Ye 9bb12368d5 bpf, arm64: Support load-acquire and store-release instructions
Support BPF load-acquire (BPF_LOAD_ACQ) and store-release
(BPF_STORE_REL) instructions in the arm64 JIT compiler.  For example
(assuming little-endian):

  db 10 00 00 00 01 00 00  r0 = load_acquire((u64 *)(r1 + 0x0))
  95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  exit

  opcode (0xdb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_DW | BPF_STX
  imm (0x00000100): BPF_LOAD_ACQ

The JIT compiler would emit an LDAR instruction for the above, e.g.:

  ldar  x7, [x0]

Similarly, consider the following 16-bit store-release:

  cb 21 00 00 10 01 00 00  store_release((u16 *)(r1 + 0x0), w2)
  95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  exit

  opcode (0xcb): BPF_ATOMIC | BPF_H | BPF_STX
  imm (0x00000110): BPF_STORE_REL

An STLRH instruction would be emitted, e.g.:

  stlrh  w1, [x0]

For a complete mapping:

  load-acquire     8-bit  LDARB
 (BPF_LOAD_ACQ)   16-bit  LDARH
                  32-bit  LDAR (32-bit)
                  64-bit  LDAR (64-bit)
  store-release    8-bit  STLRB
 (BPF_STORE_REL)  16-bit  STLRH
                  32-bit  STLR (32-bit)
                  64-bit  STLR (64-bit)

Arena accesses are supported.
bpf_jit_supports_insn(..., /*in_arena=*/true) always returns true for
BPF_LOAD_ACQ and BPF_STORE_REL instructions, as they don't depend on
ARM64_HAS_LSE_ATOMICS.

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.
