bpf: introduce BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT Introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT bpf program type to access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their raw form. >From bpf program point of view the access to the arguments look like: struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args { __u64 args[0]; }; int bpf_prog(struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args *ctx) { // program can read args[N] where N depends on tracepoint // and statically verified at program load+attach time } kprobe+bpf infrastructure allows programs access function arguments. This feature allows programs access raw tracepoint arguments. Similar to proposed 'dynamic ftrace events' there are no abi guarantees to what the tracepoints arguments are and what their meaning is. The program needs to type cast args properly and use bpf_probe_read() helper to access struct fields when argument is a pointer. For every tracepoint __bpf_trace_##call function is prepared. In assembler it looks like: (gdb) disassemble __bpf_trace_xdp_exception Dump of assembler code for function __bpf_trace_xdp_exception: 0xffffffff81132080 <+0>: mov %ecx,%ecx 0xffffffff81132082 <+2>: jmpq 0xffffffff811231f0 <bpf_trace_run3> where TRACE_EVENT(xdp_exception, TP_PROTO(const struct net_device *dev, const struct bpf_prog *xdp, u32 act), The above assembler snippet is casting 32-bit 'act' field into 'u64' to pass into bpf_trace_run3(), while 'dev' and 'xdp' args are passed as-is. All of ~500 of __bpf_trace_*() functions are only 5-10 byte long and in total this approach adds 7k bytes to .text. This approach gives the lowest possible overhead while calling trace_xdp_exception() from kernel C code and transitioning into bpf land. Since tracepoint+bpf are used at speeds of 1M+ events per second this is valuable optimization. The new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN sys_bpf command is introduced that returns anon_inode FD of 'bpf-raw-tracepoint' object.

On the kernel side the __bpf_raw_tp_map section of pointers to tracepoint definition and to __bpf_trace_*() probe function is used to find a tracepoint with "xdp_exception" name and corresponding __bpf_trace_xdp_exception() probe function which are passed to tracepoint_probe_register() to connect probe with tracepoint. Addition of bpf_raw_tracepoint doesn't interfere with ftrace and perf tracepoint mechanisms. perf_event_open() can be used in parallel on the same tracepoint. Multiple bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd) are permitted. Each with its own bpf program. The kernel will execute all tracepoint probes and all attached bpf programs.

bpf/tracing: Use stage6 of tracing to not duplicate macros The bpf events are created by the same macro magic as tracefs trace events are. But to hook into bpf, it has its own code. It duplicates many of the same macros as the tracefs macros and this is an issue because it misses bug fixes as well as any new enhancements that come with the other trace macros. As the trace macros have been put into their own staging files, have bpf take advantage of this and use the tracefs stage 6 macros that the "fast ssign" portion of the trace event macro uses.

tracing: Introduce helpers to safely handle dynamic-sized sockaddrs Enable a struct sockaddr to be stored in a trace record as a dynamically-sized field. The common cases are AF_INET and AF_INET6 which are different sizes, and are vastly smaller than a struct sockaddr_storage. These are safer because, when used properly, the size of the sockaddr destination field in each trace record is now guaranteed to be the same as the source address that is being copied into it.

kernel.h: split out COUNT_ARGS() and CONCATENATE() to args.h Patch series "kernel.h: Split out a couple of macros to args.h", v4. There are macros in kernel.h that can be used outside of that header. Split them to args.h and replace open coded variants. This patch (of 4): kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time. The COUNT_ARGS() and CONCATENATE() macros may be used in some places without need of the full kernel.h dependency train with it. Here is the attempt on cleaning it up by splitting out these macros(). While at it, include new header where it's being used.

trace: bpf: Allow bpf to attach to bare tracepoints Some subsystems only have bare tracepoints (a tracepoint with no associated trace event) to avoid the problem of trace events being an ABI that can't be changed. >From bpf presepective, bare tracepoints are what it calls RAW_TRACEPOINT(). Since bpf assumed there's 1:1 mapping, it relied on hooking to DEFINE_EVENT() macro to create bpf mapping of the tracepoints. Since bare tracepoints use DECLARE_TRACE() to create the tracepoint, bpf had no knowledge about their existence. By teaching bpf_probe.h to parse DECLARE_TRACE() in a similar fashion to DEFINE_EVENT(), bpf can find and attach to the new raw tracepoints. Enabling that comes with the contract that changes to raw tracepoints don't constitute a regression if they break existing bpf programs.

bpf: pass whole link instead of prog when triggering raw tracepoint Instead of passing prog as an argument to bpf_trace_runX() helpers, that are called from tracepoint triggering calls, store BPF link itself (struct bpf_raw_tp_link for raw tracepoints). This will allow to pass extra information like BPF cookie into raw tracepoint registration. Instead of replacing `struct bpf_prog *prog = __data;` with corresponding `struct bpf_raw_tp_link *link = __data;` assignment in `__bpf_trace_##call` I just passed `__data` through into underlying bpf_trace_runX() call. This works well because we implicitly cast `void *`, and it also avoids naming clashes with arguments coming from tracepoint's "proto" list. We could have run into the same problem with "prog", we just happened to not have a tracepoint that has "prog" input argument. We are less lucky with "link", as there are tracepoints using "link" argument name already. So instead of trying to avoid naming conflicts, let's just remove intermediate local variable. It doesn't hurt readibility, it's either way a bit of a maze of calls and macros, that requires careful reading.

bpf: introduce BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT Introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT bpf program type to access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their raw form. >From bpf program point of view the access to the arguments look like: struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args { __u64 args[0]; }; int bpf_prog(struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args *ctx) { // program can read args[N] where N depends on tracepoint // and statically verified at program load+attach time } kprobe+bpf infrastructure allows programs access function arguments. This feature allows programs access raw tracepoint arguments. Similar to proposed 'dynamic ftrace events' there are no abi guarantees to what the tracepoints arguments are and what their meaning is. The program needs to type cast args properly and use bpf_probe_read() helper to access struct fields when argument is a pointer. For every tracepoint __bpf_trace_##call function is prepared. In assembler it looks like: (gdb) disassemble __bpf_trace_xdp_exception Dump of assembler code for function __bpf_trace_xdp_exception: 0xffffffff81132080 <+0>: mov %ecx,%ecx 0xffffffff81132082 <+2>: jmpq 0xffffffff811231f0 <bpf_trace_run3> where TRACE_EVENT(xdp_exception, TP_PROTO(const struct net_device *dev, const struct bpf_prog *xdp, u32 act), The above assembler snippet is casting 32-bit 'act' field into 'u64' to pass into bpf_trace_run3(), while 'dev' and 'xdp' args are passed as-is. All of ~500 of __bpf_trace_*() functions are only 5-10 byte long and in total this approach adds 7k bytes to .text. This approach gives the lowest possible overhead while calling trace_xdp_exception() from kernel C code and transitioning into bpf land. Since tracepoint+bpf are used at speeds of 1M+ events per second this is valuable optimization. The new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN sys_bpf command is introduced that returns anon_inode FD of 'bpf-raw-tracepoint' object. The user space looks like: // load bpf prog with BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT type prog_fd = bpf_prog_load(...); // receive anon_inode fd for given bpf_raw_tracepoint with prog attached raw_tp_fd = bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd); Ctrl-C of tracing daemon or cmdline tool that uses this feature will automatically detach bpf program, unload it and unregister tracepoint probe. On the kernel side the __bpf_raw_tp_map section of pointers to tracepoint definition and to __bpf_trace_*() probe function is used to find a tracepoint with "xdp_exception" name and corresponding __bpf_trace_xdp_exception() probe function which are passed to tracepoint_probe_register() to connect probe with tracepoint. Addition of bpf_raw_tracepoint doesn't interfere with ftrace and perf tracepoint mechanisms. perf_event_open() can be used in parallel on the same tracepoint. Multiple bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd) are permitted. Each with its own bpf program. The kernel will execute all tracepoint probes and all attached bpf programs.

The size of the buffer must be a compile-time constant, and is checked before allowing a BPF program to attach to a tracepoint that uses this feature.

It was reported ([0]) that for kernels built with Clang current type-casting approach doesn't preserve these types. This patch fixes it by declaring an anonymous union for each registered tracepoint, capturing both struct bpf_raw_event_map information, as well as recording btf_trace_##call type reliably. Structurally, it's still the same content as for a plain struct bpf_raw_event_map, so no other changes are necessary.

Multiple bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd) are permitted. Each with its own bpf program. The kernel will execute all tracepoint probes and all attached bpf programs. In the future bpf_raw_tracepoints can be extended with query/introspection logic. __bpf_raw_tp_map section logic was contributed by Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net>

trace: bpf: Allow bpf to attach to bare tracepoints Some subsystems only have bare tracepoints (a tracepoint with no associated trace event) to avoid the problem of trace events being an ABI that can't be changed. >From bpf presepective, bare tracepoints are what it calls RAW_TRACEPOINT(). Since bpf assumed there's 1:1 mapping, it relied on hooking to DEFINE_EVENT() macro to create bpf mapping of the tracepoints. Since bare tracepoints use DECLARE_TRACE() to create the tracepoint, bpf had no knowledge about their existence. By teaching bpf_probe.h to parse DECLARE_TRACE() in a similar fashion to DEFINE_EVENT(), bpf can find and attach to the new raw tracepoints. Enabling that comes with the contract that changes to raw tracepoints don't constitute a regression if they break existing bpf programs.

tracepoint: Have tracepoints created with DECLARE_TRACE() have _tp suffix Most tracepoints in the kernel are created with TRACE_EVENT(). The TRACE_EVENT() macro (and DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT() where in reality, TRACE_EVENT() is just a helper macro that calls those other two macros), will create not only a tracepoint (the function trace_<event>() used in the kernel), it also exposes the tracepoint to user space along with defining what fields will be saved by that tracepoint. There are a few places that tracepoints are created in the kernel that are not exposed to userspace via tracefs. They can only be accessed from code within the kernel. These tracepoints are created with DEFINE_TRACE() Most of these tracepoints end with "_tp". This is useful as when the developer sees that, they know that the tracepoint is for in-kernel only (meaning it can only be accessed inside the kernel, either directly by the kernel or indirectly via modules and BPF programs) and is not exposed to user space. Instead of making this only a process to add "_tp", enforce it by making the DECLARE_TRACE() append the "_tp" suffix to the tracepoint. This requires adding DECLARE_TRACE_EVENT() macros for the TRACE_EVENT() macro to use that keeps the original name.

bpf: introduce BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT Introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT bpf program type to access kernel internal arguments of the tracepoints in their raw form. >From bpf program point of view the access to the arguments look like: struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args { __u64 args[0]; }; int bpf_prog(struct bpf_raw_tracepoint_args *ctx) { // program can read args[N] where N depends on tracepoint // and statically verified at program load+attach time } kprobe+bpf infrastructure allows programs access function arguments. This feature allows programs access raw tracepoint arguments. Similar to proposed 'dynamic ftrace events' there are no abi guarantees to what the tracepoints arguments are and what their meaning is. The program needs to type cast args properly and use bpf_probe_read() helper to access struct fields when argument is a pointer. For every tracepoint __bpf_trace_##call function is prepared. In assembler it looks like: (gdb) disassemble __bpf_trace_xdp_exception Dump of assembler code for function __bpf_trace_xdp_exception: 0xffffffff81132080 <+0>: mov %ecx,%ecx 0xffffffff81132082 <+2>: jmpq 0xffffffff811231f0 <bpf_trace_run3> where TRACE_EVENT(xdp_exception, TP_PROTO(const struct net_device *dev, const struct bpf_prog *xdp, u32 act), The above assembler snippet is casting 32-bit 'act' field into 'u64' to pass into bpf_trace_run3(), while 'dev' and 'xdp' args are passed as-is. All of ~500 of __bpf_trace_*() functions are only 5-10 byte long and in total this approach adds 7k bytes to .text. This approach gives the lowest possible overhead while calling trace_xdp_exception() from kernel C code and transitioning into bpf land. Since tracepoint+bpf are used at speeds of 1M+ events per second this is valuable optimization. The new BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT_OPEN sys_bpf command is introduced that returns anon_inode FD of 'bpf-raw-tracepoint' object. The user space looks like: // load bpf prog with BPF_PROG_TYPE_RAW_TRACEPOINT type prog_fd = bpf_prog_load(...); // receive anon_inode fd for given bpf_raw_tracepoint with prog attached raw_tp_fd = bpf_raw_tracepoint_open("xdp_exception", prog_fd); Ctrl-C of tracing daemon or cmdline tool that uses this feature will automatically detach bpf program, unload it and unregister tracepoint probe.
