ARM: net: delegate filter to kernel interpreter when imm_offset() return value...


ARM: net: delegate filter to kernel interpreter when imm_offset() return value can't fit into 12bits.

The ARM JIT code emits "ldr rX, [pc, #offset]" to access the literal
pool. #offset maximum value is 4095 and if the generated code is too
large, the #offset value can overflow and not point to the expected
slot in the literal pool. Additionally, when overflow occurs, bits of
the overflow can end up changing the destination register of the ldr
instruction.

Fix that by detecting the overflow in imm_offset() and setting a flag
that is checked for each BPF instructions converted in
build_body(). As of now it can only be detected in the second pass. As
a result the second build_body() call can now fail, so add the
corresponding cleanup code in that case.

Using multiple literal pools in the JITed code is going to require
lots of intrusive changes to the JIT code (which would better be done
as a feature instead of fix), just delegating to the kernel BPF
interpreter in that case is a more straight forward, minimal fix and
easy to backport.
