In order to extend the protection offered by BTI to all code executing in kernel mode we need to annotate JITed BPF code appropriately for BTI. To do this we need to add a landing pad to the start of each BPF function and also immediately after the function prologue if we are emitting a function which can be tail called. Jumps within BPF functions are all to immediate offsets and therefore do not require landing pads.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
