The weekend was cold and windy, so i wrote a bpf jit for the Alpha architecture. Signed-off-by: Jan Seiffert <redacted> --- Patch is against net-next and needs Patch 1 of my "Fix negative offsets" Series (to get bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper) The Problem is: i don't have any Alpha machine nor do i really have any clue about the arch. So this is only compile tested. I could really need some Alpha asm guru to give some advice and review this. Are the calls done right, are the asm load helper ok, all the conditional and sign handling is a little brittle in my mind, etc.Very cool. I'll try to find some time soon to test this.
That would be great. But make sure to fasten your seat belts, it will prop. crash hard ;) Here is a link to the Patch 1 you also need: <http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133312658915220&w=2>
Thanks a lot! Matt
