bpf: Constify bpf_verifier_ops structure

2015-12-23T19:27:19Z

This bpf_verifier_ops structure is never modified, like the other bpf_verifier_ops structures, so declare it as const. Done with the help of Coccinelle. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1449855359-13724-1-git-send-email-Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

bpf: make tracing helpers gpl only

2015-10-27T04:53:34Z

exported perf symbols are GPL only, mark eBPF helper functions used in tracing as GPL only as well. Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpf: fix bpf_perf_event_read() helper

2015-10-27T04:49:26Z

Fix safety checks for bpf_perf_event_read(): - only non-inherited events can be added to perf_event_array map (do this check statically at map insertion time) - dynamically check that event is local and !pmu->count Otherwise buggy bpf program can cause kernel splat. Also fix error path after perf_event_attrs() and remove redundant 'extern'.

bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper

2015-10-22T13:42:15Z

This helper is used to send raw data from eBPF program into special PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT perf_event. User space needs to perf_event_open() it (either for one or all cpus) and store FD into perf_event_array (similar to bpf_perf_event_read() helper) before eBPF program can send data into it. Today the programs triggered by kprobe collect the data and either store it into the maps or print it via bpf_trace_printk() where latter is the debug facility and not suitable to stream the data. This new helper replaces such bpf_trace_printk() usage and allows programs to have dedicated channel into user space for post-processing of the raw data collected.

bpf: add support for %s specifier to bpf_trace_printk()

2015-08-28T23:27:27Z

%s specifier makes bpf program and kernel debugging easier. To make sure that trace_printk won't crash the unsafe string is copied into stack and unsafe pointer is substituted. The following C program: #include int foo(struct pt_regs *ctx, struct filename *filename) { void *name = 0; bpf_probe_read(&name, sizeof(name), &filename->name); bpf_trace_printk("executed %s\n", name); return 0; } when attached to kprobe do_execve() will produce output in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe : make-13492 [002] d..1 3250.997277: : executed /bin/sh sh-13493 [004] d..1 3250.998716: : executed /usr/bin/gcc gcc-13494 [002] d..1 3250.999822: : executed /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/cc1 gcc-13495 [002] d..1 3251.006731: : executed /usr/bin/as gcc-13496 [002] d..1 3251.011831: : executed /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/collect2 collect2-13497 [000] d..1 3251.012941: : executed /usr/bin/ld Suggested-by: Brendan Gregg Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: David S.

bpf: Implement function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the selected hardware PMU conuter

2015-08-10T05:50:06Z

According to the perf_event_map_fd and index, the function bpf_perf_event_read() can convert the corresponding map value to the pointer to struct perf_event and return the Hardware PMU counter value. Signed-off-by: Kaixu Xia Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpf: let kprobe programs use bpf_get_smp_processor_id() helper

2015-06-15T22:53:50Z

It's useful to do per-cpu histograms. Suggested-by: Daniel Wagner Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpf: allow networking programs to use bpf_trace_printk() for debugging

2015-06-15T22:53:50Z

bpf_trace_printk() is a helper function used to debug eBPF programs. Let socket and TC programs use it as well. Note, it's DEBUG ONLY helper. If it's used in the program, the kernel will print warning banner to make sure users don't use it in production. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bpf: introduce current->pid, tgid, uid, gid, comm accessors

2015-06-15T22:53:50Z

eBPF programs attached to kprobes need to filter based on current->pid, uid and other fields, so introduce helper functions: u64 bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(void) Return: current->tgid << 32 | current->pid u64 bpf_get_current_uid_gid(void) Return: current_gid << 32 | current_uid bpf_get_current_comm(char *buf, int size_of_buf) stores current->comm into buf They can be used from the programs attached to TC as well to classify packets based on current task fields. Update tracex2 example to print histogram of write syscalls for each process instead of aggregated for all. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
