[ Upstream commit2b5dcb31a1] From commitebf7d1f508("bpf, x64: rework pro/epilogue and tailcall handling in JIT"), the tailcall on x64 works better than before. From commite411901c0b("bpf: allow for tailcalls in BPF subprograms for x64 JIT"), tailcall is able to run in BPF subprograms on x64. From commit5b92a28aae("bpf: Support attaching tracing BPF program to other BPF programs"), BPF program is able to trace other BPF programs. How about combining them all together? 1. FENTRY/FEXIT on a BPF subprogram. 2. A tailcall runs in the BPF subprogram. 3. The tailcall calls the subprogram's caller. As a result, a tailcall infinite loop comes up. And the loop would halt the machine. As we know, in tail call context, the tail_call_cnt propagates by stack and rax register between BPF subprograms. So do in trampolines.

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.
