+BPF LLVM Relocations
+====================
+
+This document describes LLVM BPF backend relocation types.
+
+Relocation Record
+=================
+
+LLVM BPF backend records each relocation with the following 16-byte
+ELF structure::
+
+  typedef struct
+  {
+    Elf64_Addr    r_offset;  // Offset from the beginning of section.
+    Elf64_Xword   r_info;    // Relocation type and symbol index.
+  } Elf64_Rel;
+
+For example, for the following code::
+
+  int g1 __attribute__((section("sec")));
+  int g2 __attribute__((section("sec")));
+  static volatile int l1 __attribute__((section("sec")));
+  static volatile int l2 __attribute__((section("sec")));
+  int test() {
+    return g1 + g2 + l1 + l2;
+  }
+
+Compiled with ``clang -target bpf -O2 -c test.c``, the following is
+the code with ``llvm-objdump -dr test.o``::
+
+       0:       18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0 ll
+                0000000000000000:  R_BPF_64_64  g1
+       2:       61 11 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 0)
+       3:       18 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r2 = 0 ll
+                0000000000000018:  R_BPF_64_64  g2
+       5:       61 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 + 0)
+       6:       0f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r1
+       7:       18 01 00 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 8 ll
+                0000000000000038:  R_BPF_64_64  sec
+       9:       61 11 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 0)
+      10:       0f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r1
+      11:       18 01 00 00 0c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 12 ll
+                0000000000000058:  R_BPF_64_64  sec
+      13:       61 11 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 0)
+      14:       0f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r1
+      15:       95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit
+
+There are four relations in the above for four ``LD_imm64`` instructions.
+The following ``llvm-readelf -r test.o`` shows the binary values of the four
+relocations::
+
+  Relocation section '.rel.text' at offset 0x190 contains 4 entries:
+      Offset             Info             Type               Symbol's Value  Symbol's Name
+  0000000000000000  0000000600000001 R_BPF_64_64            0000000000000000 g1
+  0000000000000018  0000000700000001 R_BPF_64_64            0000000000000004 g2
+  0000000000000038  0000000400000001 R_BPF_64_64            0000000000000000 sec
+  0000000000000058  0000000400000001 R_BPF_64_64            0000000000000000 sec
+
+Each relocation is represented by ``Offset`` (8 bytes) and ``Info`` (8 bytes).
+For example, the first relocation corresponds to the first instruction
+(Offset 0x0) and the corresponding ``Info`` indicates the relocation type
+of ``R_BPF_64_64`` (type 1) and the entry in the symbol table (entry 6).
+The following is the symbol table with ``llvm-readelf -s test.o``::
+
+  Symbol table '.symtab' contains 8 entries:
+     Num:    Value          Size Type    Bind   Vis       Ndx Name
+       0: 0000000000000000     0 NOTYPE  LOCAL  DEFAULT   UND
+       1: 0000000000000000     0 FILE    LOCAL  DEFAULT   ABS test.c
+       2: 0000000000000008     4 OBJECT  LOCAL  DEFAULT     4 l1
+       3: 000000000000000c     4 OBJECT  LOCAL  DEFAULT     4 l2
+       4: 0000000000000000     0 SECTION LOCAL  DEFAULT     4 sec
+       5: 0000000000000000   128 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT     2 test
+       6: 0000000000000000     4 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT     4 g1
+       7: 0000000000000004     4 OBJECT  GLOBAL DEFAULT     4 g2
+
+The 6th entry is global variable ``g1`` with value 0.
+
+Similarly, the second relocation is at ``.text`` offset ``0x18``, instruction 3,
+for global variable ``g2`` which has a symbol value 4, the offset
+from the start of ``.data`` section.
+
+The third and fourth relocations refers to static variables ``l1``
+and ``l2``. From ``.rel.text`` section above, it is not clear
+which symbols they really refers to as they both refers to
+symbol table entry 4, symbol ``sec``, which has ``STT_SECTION`` type
+and represents a section. So for static variable or function,
+the section offset is written to the original insn
+buffer, which is called ``A`` (addend). Looking at
+above insn ``7`` and ``11``, they have section offset ``8`` and ``12``.
+From symbol table, we can find that they correspond to entries ``2``
+and ``3`` for ``l1`` and ``l2``.
+
+In general, the ``A`` is 0 for global variables and functions,
+and is the section offset or some computation result based on
+section offset for static variables/functions. The non-section-offset
+case refers to function calls. See below for more details.
+
+Different Relocation Types
+==========================
+
+Six relocation types are supported. The following is an overview and
+``S`` represents the value of the symbol in the symbol table::
+
+  Enum  ELF Reloc Type     Description      BitSize  Offset        Calculation
+  0     R_BPF_NONE         None
+  1     R_BPF_64_64        ld_imm64 insn    32       r_offset + 4  S + A
+  2     R_BPF_64_ABS64     normal data      64       r_offset      S + A
+  3     R_BPF_64_ABS32     normal data      32       r_offset      S + A
+  4     R_BPF_64_NODYLD32  .BTF[.ext] data  32       r_offset      S + A
+  10    R_BPF_64_32        call insn        32       r_offset + 4  (S + A) / 8 - 1
+
+For example, ``R_BPF_64_64`` relocation type is used for ``ld_imm64`` instruction.
+The actual to-be-relocated data (0 or section offset)
+is stored at ``r_offset + 4`` and the read/write
+data bitsize is 32 (4 bytes). The relocation can be resolved with
+the symbol value plus implicit addend. Note that the ``BitSize`` is 32 which
+means the section offset must be less than or equal to ``UINT32_MAX`` and this
+is enforced by LLVM BPF backend.
+
+In another case, ``R_BPF_64_ABS64`` relocation type is used for normal 64-bit data.
+The actual to-be-relocated data is stored at ``r_offset`` and the read/write data
+bitsize is 64 (8 bytes). The relocation can be resolved with
+the symbol value plus implicit addend.
+
+Both ``R_BPF_64_ABS32`` and ``R_BPF_64_NODYLD32`` types are for 32-bit data.
+But ``R_BPF_64_NODYLD32`` specifically refers to relocations in ``.BTF`` and
+``.BTF.ext`` sections. For cases like bcc where llvm ``ExecutionEngine RuntimeDyld``
+is involved, ``R_BPF_64_NODYLD32`` types of relocations should not be resolved
+to actual function/variable address. Otherwise, ``.BTF`` and ``.BTF.ext``
+become unusable by bcc and kernel.
+
+Type ``R_BPF_64_32`` is used for call instruction. The call target section
+offset is stored at ``r_offset + 4`` (32bit) and calculated as
+``(S + A) / 8 - 1``.
+
+Examples
+========
+
+Types ``R_BPF_64_64`` and ``R_BPF_64_32`` are used to resolve ``ld_imm64``
+and ``call`` instructions. For example::
+
+  __attribute__((noinline)) __attribute__((section("sec1")))
+  int gfunc(int a, int b) {
+    return a * b;
+  }
+  static __attribute__((noinline)) __attribute__((section("sec1")))
+  int lfunc(int a, int b) {
+    return a + b;
+  }
+  int global __attribute__((section("sec2")));
+  int test(int a, int b) {
+    return gfunc(a, b) +  lfunc(a, b) + global;
+  }
+
+Compiled with ``clang -target bpf -O2 -c test.c``, we will have
+following code with `llvm-objdump -dr test.o``::
+
+  Disassembly of section .text:
+
+  0000000000000000 <test>:
+         0:       bf 26 00 00 00 00 00 00 r6 = r2
+         1:       bf 17 00 00 00 00 00 00 r7 = r1

+                  0000000000000010:  R_BPF_64_32  gfunc

+         4:       bf 71 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = r7

+                  0000000000000030:  R_BPF_64_32  sec1
+         7:       0f 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r8
+         8:       18 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = 0 ll
+                  0000000000000040:  R_BPF_64_64  global
+        10:       61 11 00 00 00 00 00 00 r1 = *(u32 *)(r1 + 0)
+        11:       0f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r1
+        12:       95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit
+
+  Disassembly of section sec1:
+
+  0000000000000000 <gfunc>:
+         0:       bf 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 = r2
+         1:       2f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 *= r1
+         2:       95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit
+
+  0000000000000018 <lfunc>:
+         3:       bf 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 = r2
+         4:       0f 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 r0 += r1
+         5:       95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit
+
+The first relocation corresponds to ``gfunc(a, b)`` where ``gfunc`` has a value of 0,
+so the ``call`` instruction offset is ``(0 + 0)/8 - 1 = -1``.
+The second relocation corresponds to ``lfunc(a, b)`` where ``lfunc`` has a section
+offset ``0x18``, so the ``call`` instruction offset is ``(0 + 0x18)/8 - 1 = 2``.
+The third relocation corresponds to ld_imm64 of ``global``, which has a section
+offset ``0``.
+
+The following is an example to show how R_BPF_64_ABS64 could be generated::
+
+  int global() { return 0; }
+  struct t { void *g; } gbl = { global };
+
+Compiled with ``clang -target bpf -O2 -g -c test.c``, we will see a
+relocation below in ``.data`` section with command
+``llvm-readelf -r test.o``::
+
+  Relocation section '.rel.data' at offset 0x458 contains 1 entries:
+      Offset             Info             Type               Symbol's Value  Symbol's Name
+  0000000000000000  0000000700000002 R_BPF_64_ABS64         0000000000000000 global
+
+The relocation says the first 8-byte of ``.data`` section should be
+filled with address of ``global`` variable.
+
+With ``llvm-readelf`` output, we can see that dwarf sections have a bunch of
+``R_BPF_64_ABS32`` and ``R_BPF_64_ABS64`` relocations::
+
+  Relocation section '.rel.debug_info' at offset 0x468 contains 13 entries:
+      Offset             Info             Type               Symbol's Value  Symbol's Name
+  0000000000000006  0000000300000003 R_BPF_64_ABS32         0000000000000000 .debug_abbrev
