On MIPS, conditional branches can only span 32k instructions. To exceed this limit in the JIT with the BPF maximum of 4k insns, we need to choose eBPF insns that expand to more than 8 machine instructions. Use BPF_LD_ABS as it is quite complex. This forces the JIT to invert the sense of the branch to branch around a long jump to the end. This (somewhat) verifies that the branch inversion logic and target address calculation of the long jumps are done correctly.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
