2020-10-28bpf: Permit cond_resched for some iteratorsYonghong Song
Commit e679654a704e ("bpf: Fix a rcu_sched stall issue with bpf task/task_file iterator") tries to fix rcu stalls warning which is caused by bpf task_file iterator when running "bpftool prog". rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU rcu: \x097-....: (20999 ticks this GP) idle=302/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=1508852/1508852 fqs=4913 \x09(t=21031 jiffies g=2534773 q=179750) NMI backtrace for cpu 7 CPU: 7 PID: 184195 Comm: bpftool Kdump: loaded Tainted: G W 5.8.0-00004-g68bfc7f8c1b4 #6 Hardware name: Quanta Twin Lakes MP/Twin Lakes Passive MP, BIOS F09_3A17 05/03/2019 Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack+0x57/0x70 nmi_cpu_backtrace.cold+0x14/0x53 ? lapic_can_unplug_cpu.cold+0x39/0x39 nmi_trigger_cpumask_backtrace+0xb7/0xc7 rcu_dump_cpu_stacks+0xa2/0xd0 rcu_sched_clock_irq.cold+0x1ff/0x3d9 ? tick_nohz_handler+0x100/0x100 update_process_times+0x5b/0x90 tick_sched_timer+0x5e/0xf0 __hrtimer_run_queues+0x12a/0x2a0 hrtimer_interrupt+0x10e/0x280 __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x51/0xe0 asm_call_on_stack+0xf/0x20 </IRQ> sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x6f/0x80 ... task_file_seq_next+0x52/0xa0 bpf_seq_read+0xb9/0x320 vfs_read+0x9d/0x180 ksys_read+0x5f/0xe0 do_syscall_64+0x38/0x60 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 The fix is to limit the number of bpf program runs to be one million. This fixed the program in most cases. But we also found under heavy load, which can increase the wallclock time for bpf_seq_read(), the warning may still be possible. For example, calling bpf_delay() in the "while" loop of bpf_seq_read(), which will introduce artificial delay, the warning will show up in my qemu run. static unsigned q; volatile unsigned *p = &q; volatile unsigned long long ll; static void bpf_delay(void) { int i, j; for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++) for (j = 0; j < 10000; j++) ll += *p; } There are two ways to fix this issue. One is to reduce the above one million threshold to say 100,000 and hopefully rcu warning will not show up any more. Another is to introduce a target feature which enables bpf_seq_read() calling cond_resched(). This patch took second approach as the first approach may cause more -EAGAIN failures for read() syscalls. Note that not all bpf_iter targets can permit cond_resched() in bpf_seq_read() as some, e.g., netlink seq iterator, rcu read lock critical section spans through seq_ops->next() -> seq_ops->show() -> seq_ops->next(). For the kernel code with the above hack, "bpftool p" roughly takes 38 seconds to finish on my VM with 184 bpf program runs. Using the following command, I am able to collect the number of context switches: perf stat -e context-switches -- ./bpftool p >& log Without this patch, 69 context-switches With this patch, 75 context-switches This patch added additional 6 context switches, roughly every 6 seconds to reschedule, to avoid lengthy no-rescheduling which may cause the above RCU warnings.

This patch implemented bpf_link callback functions show_fdinfo and fill_link_info to support link_query interface. The general interface for show_fdinfo and fill_link_info will print/fill the target_name. Each targets can register show_fdinfo and fill_link_info callbacks to print/fill more target specific information.

In the case where the above rcu stall occured, we had a process having 1587 tasks and each task having roughly 81305 files. This implied 129 million bpf prog invocations. Unfortunwtely none of these files are prog/map/link/btf files so bpf iterator/prog needs to traverse all these files and not able to return to user space since there are no seq_file buffer overflow. This patch fixed the issue in bpf_seq_read() to limit the number of visited objects. If the maximum number of visited objects is reached, no more objects will be visited in the current syscall. If there is nothing written in the seq_file buffer, -EAGAIN will return to the user so user can try again. The maximum number of visited objects is set at 1 million. In our Intel Xeon D-2191 2.3GHZ 18-core server, bpf_seq_read() visiting 1 million files takes around 0.18 seconds. We did not use cond_resched() since for some iterators, e.g., netlink iterator, where rcu read_lock critical section spans between consecutive seq_ops->next(), which makes impossible to do cond_resched() in the key while loop of function bpf_seq_read().

2020-08-06bpf: Change uapi for bpf iterator map elementsYonghong Song
Commit a5cbe05a6673 ("bpf: Implement bpf iterator for map elements") added bpf iterator support for map elements. The map element bpf iterator requires info to identify a particular map. In the above commit, the attr->link_create.target_fd is used to carry map_fd and an enum bpf_iter_link_info is added to uapi to specify the target_fd actually representing a map_fd: enum bpf_iter_link_info { BPF_ITER_LINK_UNSPEC = 0, BPF_ITER_LINK_MAP_FD = 1, MAX_BPF_ITER_LINK_INFO, }; This is an extensible approach as we can grow enumerator for pid, cgroup_id, etc. and we can unionize target_fd for pid, cgroup_id, etc. But in the future, there are chances that more complex customization may happen, e.g., for tasks, it could be filtered based on both cgroup_id and user_id. This patch changed the uapi to have fields __aligned_u64 iter_info; __u32 iter_info_len; for additional iter_info for link_create. The iter_info is defined as union bpf_iter_link_info { struct { __u32 map_fd; } map; }; So future extension for additional customization will be easier. The bpf_iter_link_info will be passed to target callback to validate and generic bpf_iter framework does not need to deal it any more. Note that map_fd = 0 will be considered invalid and -EBADF will be returned to user space.

2020-07-25bpf: Implement bpf iterator for map elementsYonghong Song
The bpf iterator for map elements are implemented. The bpf program will receive four parameters: bpf_iter_meta *meta: the meta data bpf_map *map: the bpf_map whose elements are traversed void *key: the key of one element void *value: the value of the same element Here, meta and map pointers are always valid, and key has register type PTR_TO_RDONLY_BUF_OR_NULL and value has register type PTR_TO_RDWR_BUF_OR_NULL. The kernel will track the access range of key and value during verification time. Later, these values will be compared against the values in the actual map to ensure all accesses are within range. A new field iter_seq_info is added to bpf_map_ops which is used to add map type specific information, i.e., seq_ops, init/fini seq_file func and seq_file private data size. Subsequent patches will have actual implementation for bpf_map_ops->iter_seq_info. In user space, BPF_ITER_LINK_MAP_FD needs to be specified in prog attr->link_create.flags, which indicates that attr->link_create.target_fd is a map_fd. The reason for such an explicit flag is for possible future cases where one bpf iterator may allow more than one possible customization, e.g., pid and cgroup id for task_file. Current kernel internal implementation only allows the target to register at most one required bpf_iter_link_info. To support the above case, optional bpf_iter_link_info's are needed, the target can be extended to register such link infos, and user provided link_info needs to match one of target supported ones.

There is no functionality change for this patch. Struct bpf_iter_reg is used to register a bpf_iter target, which includes information for both prog_load, link_create and seq_file creation. This patch puts fields related seq_file creation into a different structure.

2020-05-13bpf: Enable bpf_iter targets registering ctx argument typesYonghong Song
Commit b121b341e598 ("bpf: Add PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL support") adds a field btf_id_or_null_non0_off to bpf_prog->aux structure to indicate that the first ctx argument is PTR_TO_BTF_ID reg_type and all others are PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL. This approach does not really scale if we have other different reg types in the future, e.g., a pointer to a buffer. This patch enables bpf_iter targets registering ctx argument reg types which may be different from the default one. For example, for pointers to structures, the default reg_type is PTR_TO_BTF_ID for tracing program. The target can register a particular pointer type as PTR_TO_BTF_ID_OR_NULL which can be used by the verifier to enforce accesses.

Macro DEFINE_BPF_ITER_FUNC is implemented so target can define an init function to capture the BTF type which represents the target. The bpf_iter_meta is a structure holding meta data, common to all targets in the bpf program. Additional marker functions are called before or after bpf_seq_read() show()/next()/stop() callback functions to help calculate precise seq_num and whether call bpf_prog inside stop(). Two functions, bpf_iter_get_info() and bpf_iter_run_prog(), are implemented so target can get needed information from bpf_iter infrastructure and can run the program.

2020-05-09bpf: Create anonymous bpf iteratorYonghong Song
A new bpf command BPF_ITER_CREATE is added. The anonymous bpf iterator is seq_file based. The seq_file private data are referenced by targets. The bpf_iter infrastructure allocated additional space at seq_file->private before the space used by targets to store some meta data, e.g., prog: prog to run session_id: an unique id for each opened seq_file seq_num: how many times bpf programs are queried in this session done_stop: an internal state to decide whether bpf program should be called in seq_ops->stop() or not The seq_num will start from 0 for valid objects. The bpf program may see the same seq_num more than once if - seq_file buffer overflow happens and the same object is retried by bpf_seq_read(), or - the bpf program explicitly requests a retry of the same object Since module is not supported for bpf_iter, all target registeration happens at __init time, so there is no need to change bpf_iter_unreg_target() as it is used mostly in error path of the init function at which time no bpf iterators have been created yet.

2020-05-09bpf: Implement bpf_seq_read() for bpf iteratorYonghong Song
bpf iterator uses seq_file to provide a lossless way to transfer data to user space. But we want to call bpf program after all objects have been traversed, and bpf program may write additional data to the seq_file buffer. The current seq_read() does not work for this use case. Besides allowing stop() function to write to the buffer, the bpf_seq_read() also fixed the buffer size to one page. If any single call of show() or stop() will emit data more than one page to cause overflow, -E2BIG error code will be returned to user space.

2020-05-09bpf: Support bpf tracing/iter programs for BPF_LINK_UPDATEYonghong Song
Added BPF_LINK_UPDATE support for tracing/iter programs. This way, a file based bpf iterator, which holds a reference to the link, can have its bpf program updated without creating new files.

2020-05-09bpf: Support bpf tracing/iter programs for BPF_LINK_CREATEYonghong Song
Given a bpf program, the step to create an anonymous bpf iterator is: - create a bpf_iter_link, which combines bpf program and the target. In the future, there could be more information recorded in the link. A link_fd will be returned to the user space. - create an anonymous bpf iterator with the given link_fd. The bpf_iter_link can be pinned to bpffs mount file system to create a file based bpf iterator as well. The benefit to use of bpf_iter_link: - using bpf link simplifies design and implementation as bpf link is used for other tracing bpf programs. - for file based bpf iterator, bpf_iter_link provides a standard way to replace underlying bpf programs. - for both anonymous and free based iterators, bpf link query capability can be leveraged. The patch added support of tracing/iter programs for BPF_LINK_CREATE. A new link type BPF_LINK_TYPE_ITER is added to facilitate link querying. Currently, only prog_id is needed, so there is no additional in-kernel show_fdinfo() and fill_link_info() hook is needed for BPF_LINK_TYPE_ITER link.

2020-05-09bpf: Allow loading of a bpf_iter programYonghong Song
A bpf_iter program is a tracing program with attach type BPF_TRACE_ITER. The load attribute attach_btf_id is used by the verifier against a particular kernel function, which represents a target, e.g., __bpf_iter__bpf_map for target bpf_map which is implemented later. The program return value must be 0 or 1 for now. 0 : successful, except potential seq_file buffer overflow which is handled by seq_file reader. 1 : request to restart the same object In the future, other return values may be used for filtering or teminating the iterator.

2020-05-09bpf: Implement an interface to register bpf_iter targetsYonghong Song
The target can call bpf_iter_reg_target() to register itself. The needed information: target: target name seq_ops: the seq_file operations for the target init_seq_private target callback to initialize seq_priv during file open fini_seq_private target callback to clean up seq_priv during file release seq_priv_size: the private_data size needed by the seq_file operations The target name represents a target which provides a seq_ops for iterating objects. The target can provide two callback functions, init_seq_private and fini_seq_private, called during file open/release time. For example, /proc/net/{tcp6, ipv6_route, netlink, ...}, net name space needs to be setup properly during file open and released properly during file release. Function bpf_iter_unreg_target() is also implemented to unregister a particular target.
