With fentry/fexit programs, it is possible to profile BPF program with
hardware counters. Introduce bpftool "prog profile", which measures key
metrics of a BPF program.
bpftool prog profile command creates per-cpu perf events. Then it attaches
fentry/fexit programs to the target BPF program. The fentry program saves
perf event value to a map. The fexit program reads the perf event again,
and calculates the difference, which is the instructions/cycles used by
the target program.
Example input and output:
./bpftool prog profile id 337 duration 3 cycles instructions llc_misses
4228 run_cnt
3403698 cycles (84.08%)
3525294 instructions # 1.04 insn per cycle (84.05%)
13 llc_misses # 3.69 LLC misses per million isns (83.50%)
This command measures cycles and instructions for BPF program with id
337 for 3 seconds. The program has triggered 4228 times. The rest of the
output is similar to perf-stat. In this example, the counters were only
counting ~84% of the time because of time multiplexing of perf counters.
Note that, this approach measures cycles and instructions in very small
increments. So the fentry/fexit programs introduce noticeable errors to
the measurement results.
The fentry/fexit programs are generated with BPF skeletons. Therefore, we
build bpftool twice. The first time _bpftool is built without skeletons.
Then, _bpftool is used to generate the skeletons. The second time, bpftool
is built with skeletons.

The btf availability check is only done for plain text output.
It causes the whole BTF output went missing when json_output
is used.
This patch simplifies the logic a little by avoiding passing "int btf" to
map_dump().
For plain text output, the btf_wtr is only created when the map has
BTF (i.e. info->btf_id != 0). The nullness of "json_writer_t *wtr"
in map_dump() alone can decide if dumping BTF output is needed.
As long as wtr is not NULL, map_dump() will print out the BTF-described
data whenever a map has BTF available (i.e. info->btf_id != 0)
regardless of json or plain-text output.
In do_dump(), the "int btf" is also renamed to "int do_plain_btf".

When testing a map has btf or not, maps_have_btf() tests it by actually
getting a btf_fd from sys_bpf(BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID). However, it
forgot to btf__free() it.
In maps_have_btf() stage, there is no need to test it by really
calling sys_bpf(BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID). Testing non zero
info.btf_id is good enough.
Also, the err_close case is unnecessary, and also causes double
close() because the calling func do_dump() will close() all fds again.

functionality.
runqslower tool utilizes BPF skeleton, auto-generated from BPF object file,
as well as memory-mapped interface to global (read-only, in this case) data.
Its Makefile also ensures auto-generation of "relocatable" vmlinux.h, which is

This patch makes structs and unions, emitted through BTF dump, automatically
CO-RE-relocatable (unless disabled with `#define BPF_NO_PRESERVE_ACCESS_INDEX`,
specified before including generated header file).
This effectivaly turns usual bpf_probe_read() call into equivalent of
bpf_core_read(), by automatically applying builtin_preserve_access_index to
any field accesses of types in generated C types header.
This is especially useful for tp_btf/fentry/fexit BPF program types. They
allow direct memory access, so BPF C code just uses straightfoward a->b->c
access pattern to read data from kernel. But without kernel structs marked as
CO-RE relocatable through preserve_access_index attribute, one has to enclose
all the data reads into a special __builtin_preserve_access_index code block,
like so:
__builtin_preserve_access_index(({
x = p->pid; /* where p is struct task_struct *, for example */
}));
This is very inconvenient and obscures the logic quite a bit. By marking all
auto-generated types with preserve_access_index attribute the above code is
reduced to just a clean and natural `x = p->pid;`.

For plain text output, it incorrectly prints the pointer value
"void *data". The "void *data" is actually pointing to memory that
contains a bpf-map's value. The intention is to print the content of
the bpf-map's value instead of printing the pointer pointing to the
bpf-map's value.
In this case, a member of the bpf-map's value is a pointer type.
Thus, it should print the "*(void **)data".

There are three merge conflicts. Conflicts and resolution looks as follows:
1) Merge conflict in net/bpf/test_run.c:
There was a tree-wide cleanup c593642c8b ("treewide: Use sizeof_field() macro")
which gets in the way with b590cb5f80 ("bpf: Switch to offsetofend in

if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetofend(struct __sk_buff, priority),

There are a few occasions that look similar to this. Always take the chunk with
offsetofend(). Note that there is one where the fields differ in here:
<<<<<<< HEAD
if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetof(struct __sk_buff, tstamp) +

=======
if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetofend(struct __sk_buff, gso_segs),

Just take the one with offsetofend() /and/ gso_segs. Latter is correct due to
850a88cc40 ("bpf: Expose __sk_buff wire_len/gso_segs to BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN").
2) Merge conflict in arch/riscv/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:

triggers compilation error due to void * being implicitly casted to whatever
target pointer type. This is supported by C, but not C++. To solve this
problem, add explicit casts, where necessary.
To ensure issues like this are captured going forward, add skeleton usage in
test_cpp test.

Currently, when bpftool cgroup show <path> has an error, no error
message is printed. This is confusing because the user may think the
result is empty.
Before the change:
$ bpftool cgroup show /sys/fs/cgroup
ID AttachType AttachFlags Name
$ echo $?
255
After the change:
$ ./bpftool cgroup show /sys/fs/cgroup
Error: can't query bpf programs attached to /sys/fs/cgroup: Operation

Work-around what appears to be a bug in rst2man convertion tool, used to
create man pages out of reStructureText-formatted documents. If text line
starts with dot, rst2man will put it in resulting man file verbatim. This
seems to cause man tool to interpret it as a directive/command (e.g., `.bs`), and
subsequently not render entire line because it's unrecognized one.
Enclose '.xxx' words in extra formatting to work around.

Add support for generation of mmap()-ed read-only view of libbpf-provided
extern variables. As externs are not supposed to be provided by user code
(that's what .data, .bss, and .rodata is for), don't mmap() it initially. Only
after skeleton load is performed, map .extern contents as read-only memory.

Add `bpftool gen skeleton` command, which takes in compiled BPF .o object file
and dumps a BPF skeleton struct and related code to work with that skeleton.
Skeleton itself is tailored to a specific structure of provided BPF object
file, containing accessors (just plain struct fields) for every map and
program, as well as dedicated space for bpf_links. If BPF program is using
global variables, corresponding structure definitions of compatible memory
layout are emitted as well, making it possible to initialize and subsequently
read/update global variables values using simple and clear C syntax for
accessing fields. This skeleton majorly improves usability of
opening/loading/attaching of BPF object, as well as interacting with it
throughout the lifetime of loaded BPF object.
Generated skeleton struct has the following structure:
struct <object-name> {
/* used by libbpf's skeleton API */
struct bpf_object_skeleton *skeleton;
/* bpf_object for libbpf APIs */
struct bpf_object *obj;
struct {
/* for every defined map in BPF object: */
struct bpf_map *<map-name>;
} maps;
struct {
/* for every program in BPF object: */
struct bpf_program *<program-name>;
} progs;
struct {
/* for every program in BPF object: */
struct bpf_link *<program-name>;
} links;
/* for every present global data section: */
struct <object-name>__<one of bss, data, or rodata> {
/* memory layout of corresponding data section,
* with every defined variable represented as a struct field
* with exactly the same type, but without const/volatile
* modifiers, e.g.:
*/
int *my_var_1;
...
} *<one of bss, data, or rodata>;
};
This provides great usability improvements:
- no need to look up maps and programs by name, instead just
my_obj->maps.my_map or my_obj->progs.my_prog would give necessary
bpf_map/bpf_program pointers, which user can pass to existing libbpf APIs;
- pre-defined places for bpf_links, which will be automatically populated for
program types that libbpf knows how to attach automatically (currently
tracepoints, kprobe/kretprobe, raw tracepoint and tracing programs). On
tearing down skeleton, all active bpf_links will be destroyed (meaning BPF
programs will be detached, if they are attached). For cases in which libbpf
doesn't know how to auto-attach BPF program, user can manually create link
after loading skeleton and they will be auto-detached on skeleton
destruction:
my_obj->links.my_fancy_prog = bpf_program__attach_cgroup_whatever(
my_obj->progs.my_fancy_prog, <whatever extra param);
- it's extremely easy and convenient to work with global data from userspace
now. Both for read-only and read/write variables, it's possible to
pre-initialize them before skeleton is loaded:
skel = my_obj__open(raw_embed_data);
my_obj->rodata->my_var = 123;
my_obj__load(skel); /* 123 will be initialization value for my_var */
After load, if kernel supports mmap() for BPF arrays, user can still read
(and write for .bss and .data) variables values, but at that point it will
be directly mmap()-ed to BPF array, backing global variables. This allows to
seamlessly exchange data with BPF side. From userspace program's POV, all
the pointers and memory contents stay the same, but mapped kernel memory
changes to point to created map.
If kernel doesn't yet support mmap() for BPF arrays, it's still possible to
use those data section structs to pre-initialize .bss, .data, and .rodata,
but after load their pointers will be reset to NULL, allowing user code to
gracefully handle this condition, if necessary.

This patch implements lookup by name for maps and changes the behavior of
lookups by tag to be consistent with prog subcommands. Similarly to
program subcommands, the show and dump commands will return all maps with
the given name (or tag), whereas other commands will error out if several
maps have the same name (resp. tag).
When a map has BTF info, it is dumped in JSON with available BTF info.
This patch requires that all matched maps have BTF info before switching
the output format to JSON.

When several BPF programs have the same tag, bpftool matches only the
first (in ID order). This patch changes that behavior such that dump and
show commands return all matched programs. Commands that require a single
program (e.g., pin and attach) will error out if given a tag that matches
several. bpftool prog dump will also error out if file or visual are
given and several programs have the given tag.
In the case of the dump command, a program header is added before each
dump only if the tag matches several programs; this patch doesn't change
the output if a single program matches. The output when several
programs match thus looks as follows.
$ ./bpftool prog dump xlated tag 6deef7357e7b4530

When the kptr_restrict sysctl is set, the kernel can fail to return
jited_ksyms or jited_prog_insns, but still have positive values in
nr_jited_ksyms and jited_prog_len. This causes bpftool to crash when
trying to dump the program because it only checks the len fields not
the actual pointers to the instructions and ksyms.
Fix this by adding the missing checks.

Building selftests with 'make TARGETS=bpf kselftest' was fixed in commit
55d554f5d1 ("tools: bpf: Use !building_out_of_srctree to determine
srctree"). However, by updating $(srctree) in tools/bpf/Makefile for
in-tree builds only, we leave out the case where we pass an output
directory to build BPF tools, but $(srctree) is not set. This
typically happens for:
$ make -s tools/bpf O=/tmp/foo
Makefile:40: /tools/build/Makefile.feature: No such file or directory
Fix it by updating $(srctree) in the Makefile not only for out-of-tree
builds, but also if $(srctree) is empty.
Detected with test_bpftool_build.sh.

When compiling larger programs with bpf_asm, it's possible to
accidentally exceed jt/jf range, in which case it won't complain, but
rather silently emit a truncated offset, leading to a "happy debugging"
