Add support for [LDX | STX | ST], PROBE_MEM32, [B | H | W | DW] instructions. They are similar to PROBE_MEM instructions with the following differences: - PROBE_MEM has to check that the address is in the kernel range with src_reg + insn->off >= TASK_SIZE_MAX + PAGE_SIZE check - PROBE_MEM doesn't support store - PROBE_MEM32 relies on the verifier to clear upper 32-bit in the register - PROBE_MEM32 adds 64-bit kern_vm_start address (which is stored in %r12 in the prologue) Due to bpf_arena constructions such %r12 + %reg + off16 access is guaranteed to be within arena virtual range, so no address check at run-time. - PROBE_MEM32 allows STX and ST. If they fault the store is a nop. When LDX faults the destination register is zeroed.

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 Restructured Text 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.
