Hi all,

After merging the net-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

kernel/bpf/verifier.o: In function `bpf_check':
verifier.c:(.text+0xd86e): undefined reference to `bpf_patch_call_args'

Caused by commit

  1ea47e01ad6e ("bpf: add support for bpf_call to interpreter")

interacting with commit

  290af86629b2 ("bpf: introduce BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON config")

from the bpf and net trees.

I have just reverted commit 290af86629b2 for today.  A better solution
would be nice (lie fixing this in a merge between the net-next and net
trees).

that's due to 'endif' from 290af86629b2 needs to be moved above
bpf_patch_call_args() definition.

That doesn't fix it, because then you'd need to expose
interpreters_args as well and obviously that can't be right.

Instead, we should never call bpf_patch_call_args() when JIT always on
is enabled.  So if we fail to JIT the subprogs we should fail
immediately.

This is the net --> net-next merge resolution I am about to use to fix
this:

++	int i, depth, err;

- 		if (jit_subprogs(env) == 0)
++	err = 0;
++	if (env->prog->jit_requested) {
++		err = jit_subprogs(env);
++		if (err == 0)
 +			return 0;
- 
++	}

 +			continue;
 +		depth = get_callee_stack_depth(env, insn, i);
 +		if (depth < 0)
 +			return depth;
 +		bpf_patch_call_args(insn, depth);
 +	}
- 	return 0;
++	err = 0;
++#endif
++	return err;
