Please also cc netdev on BPF related changes.

Actually, your test plan can be further simplified ...

For retrieving and disassembling the JIT image, we have bpf_jit_disasm [1].

  1) echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable
  2) ... attach filter ...
  3) bpf_jit_disasm -o

For generating a simple stupid test filter, you can use bpfc [2] (also
see its man page). E.g. ...

   # cat blub
   ldi #10
   mod #8
   ret a
   # bpfc blub
   { 0x0, 0, 0, 0x0000000a },
   { 0x94, 0, 0, 0x00000008 },
   { 0x16, 0, 0, 0x00000000 },

And load this array e.g. either into a small C program that attaches this
as BPF filter, or simply do bpfc blub > blub2 and run netsniff-ng -f blub2\
-s -i eth0, that should also do it.

Then, when attached, the kernel should truncate incoming frames for pf_packet
into max length of 2, just as an example.
