Jose E. Marchesi 0c45feb159 bpf: there is no ldinddw nor ldabsdw instructions
There are no legacy ldind nor ldabs BPF instructions with BPF_SIZE_DW.
For some reason we were (incorrectly) supporting these.  This patch
updates the opcodes so the instructions get removed and modifies the
GAS manual and testsuite accordingly.

See discussion at
https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/110aad7a-f8a3-46ed-9fda-2f8ee54dcb89@linux.dev

Tested in bpf-uknonwn-none target, x86-64-linux-gnu host.

include/ChangeLog:

2024-01-29  Jose E. Marchesi  <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>

	* opcode/bpf.h (enum bpf_insn_id): Remove BPF_INSN_LDINDDW and
	BPF_INSN_LDABSDW instructions.

opcodes/ChangeLog:

2024-01-29  Jose E. Marchesi  <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>

@cindex BPF options (none)
@cindex options for BPF (none)
@c man begin OPTIONS
@table @gcctabopt
@cindex @option{-EB} command-line option, BPF
@item -EB
This option specifies that the assembler should emit big-endian eBPF.
@cindex @option{-EL} command-line option, BPF
@item -EL
This option specifies that the assembler should emit little-endian
eBPF.
@cindex @option{-mdialect} command-line options, BPF
@item -mdialect=@var{dialect}
This option specifies the assembly language dialect to recognize while
assembling. The assembler supports @option{normal} and
@option{pseudoc}.
@cindex @option{-misa-spec} command-line options, BPF
@item -misa-spec=@var{spec}
This option specifies the version of the BPF instruction set to use
when assembling. The BPF ISA versions supported are @option{v1} @option{v2}, @option{v3} and @option{v4}.
The value @option{xbpf} can be specified to recognize extra
instructions that are used by GCC for testing purposes. But beware
this is not valid BPF.
@cindex @option{-mno-relax} command-line options, BPF
@item -mno-relax
This option tells the assembler to not relax instructions.

the host endianness is used.

@node BPF Special Characters
@section BPF Special Characters
@cindex line comment character, BPF
@cindex BPF line comment character
The presence of a @samp{#} or @samp{//} anywhere on a line indicates
the start of a comment that extends to the end of the line.
@cindex block comments, BPF
@cindex BPF block comments
The presence of the @samp{/*} sequence indicates the beginning of a
block (multi-line) comment, whose contents span until the next
@samp{*/} sequence. It is not possible to nest block comments.
@cindex statement separator, BPF
Statements and assembly directives are separated by newlines and
@samp{;} characters.
@node BPF Registers
@section BPF Registers
@cindex BPF register names
@cindex register names, BPF
The eBPF processor provides ten general-purpose 64-bit registers,
which are read-write, and a read-only frame pointer register:
@noindent
In normal syntax:
@table @samp
@item %r0 .. %r9
General-purpose registers.
@item %r10
@itemx %fp
Read-only frame pointer register.
@end table
All BPF registers are 64-bit long. However, in the Pseudo-C syntax
registers can be referred using different names, which actually
reflect the kind of instruction they appear on:
@noindent
In pseudoc syntax:
@table @samp
@item r0..r9
General-purpose register in an instruction that operates on its value
as if it was a 64-bit value.
@item w0..w9
General-purpose register in an instruction that operates on its value
as if it was a 32-bit value.
@item r10
Read-only frame pointer register.
@end table
@noindent
Note that in the Pseudo-C syntax register names are not preceded by
@code{%} characters. A consequence of that is that in contexts like
instruction operands, where both register names and expressions
involving symbols are expected, there is no way to disambiguate
between them. In order to keep things simple, this assembler does not
allow to refer to symbols whose names collide with register names in
instruction operands.
@node BPF Directives
@section BPF Directives
@cindex machine directives, BPF
The BPF version of @code{@value{AS}} supports the following additional
machine directives:
@table @code
@cindex @code{half} directive, BPF
@item .word
The @code{.half} directive produces a 16 bit value.
@cindex @code{word} directive, BPF
@item .word
The @code{.word} directive produces a 32 bit value.
@cindex @code{dword} directive, BPF
@item .dword
The @code{.dword} directive produces a 64 bit value.
@end table
@node BPF Instructions
@section BPF Instructions
@cindex BPF opcodes
@cindex opcodes for BPF
In the instruction descriptions below the following field descriptors
are used:
@table @code
@item rd
Destination general-purpose register whose role is to be the
destination of an operation.
@item rs
Source general-purpose register whose role is to be the source of an
operation.
@item disp16
16-bit signed PC-relative offset, measured in number of 64-bit words,
minus one.
@item disp32
32-bit signed PC-relative offset, measured in number of 64-bit words,
minus one.
@item offset16
Signed 16-bit immediate representing an offset in bytes.
@item disp16
Signed 16-bit immediate representing a displacement to a target,
measured in number of 64-bit words @emph{minus one}.
@item disp32
Signed 32-bit immediate representing a displacement to a target,
measured in number of 64-bit words @emph{minus one}.
@item imm32
Signed 32-bit immediate.
@item imm64
Signed 64-bit immediate.
@end table
@noindent
Note that the assembler allows to express the value for an immediate
using any numerical literal whose two's complement encoding fits in
the immediate field. For example, @code{-2}, @code{0xfffffffe} and
@code{4294967294} all denote the same encoded 32-bit immediate, whose
value may be then interpreted by different instructions as either as a
negative or a positive number.

accumulator.

registers.

Atomic fetch-and-add instruction.

Atomic fetch-and-or instruction.

Atomic fetch-and-and instruction.

@subsection 32-bit atomic instructions
32-bit atomic exchange instructions are provided in two flavors: one
for compare-and-swap, one for unconditional exchange.
@table @code
@item acmp32 [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx w0 = cmpxchg32_32 (rd + offset16, w0, ws)
Atomic compare-and-swap. Compares value in @code{w0} to value
addressed by @code{rd + offset16}. On match, the value addressed by
@code{rd + offset16} is replaced with the value in @code{ws}.
Regardless, the value that was at @code{rd + offset16} is
zero-extended and loaded into @code{w0}.
@item axchg [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx ws = xchg32_32 (rd + offset16, ws)
Atomic exchange. Atomically exchanges the value in @code{ws} with
the value addressed by @code{rd + offset16}.
@end table
@noindent
The following instructions provide 32-bit atomic arithmetic operations.
@table @code
@item aadd32 [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx lock *(u32 *)(rd + offset16) = rs
Atomic add instruction.
@item aor32 [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx lock *(u32 *) (rd + offset16) |= rs
Atomic or instruction.
@item aand32 [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx lock *(u32 *) (rd + offset16) &= rs
Atomic and instruction.
@item axor32 [rd + offset16], rs
@itemx lock *(u32 *) (rd + offset16) ^= rs
Atomic xor instruction
@end table
@noindent
The following variants perform fetching before the atomic operation.
@table @code
@item afadd32 [dr + offset16], rs
@itemx ws = atomic_fetch_add ((u32 *)(rd + offset16), ws)
Atomic fetch-and-add instruction.
@item afor32 [dr + offset16], rs
@itemx ws = atomic_fetch_or ((u32 *)(rd + offset16), ws)
Atomic fetch-and-or instruction.
@item afand32 [dr + offset16], rs
@itemx ws = atomic_fetch_and ((u32 *)(rd + offset16), ws)
Atomic fetch-and-and instruction.
@item afxor32 [dr + offset16], rs
@itemx ws = atomic_fetch_xor ((u32 *)(rd + offset16), ws)
Atomic fetch-and-or instruction
