[PATCH bpf-next v1 0/8] libbpf: type suffixes and autocreate flag for struct_ops maps

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Tweak struct_ops related APIs to allow the following features:
- specify version suffixes for stuct_ops map types;
- share same BPF program between several map definitions with
  different local BTF types, assuming only maps with same
  kernel BTF type would be selected for load;
- toggle autocreate flag for struct_ops maps;
- toggle autoload for referenced struct_ops programs
  when autocreate flag of struct_ops maps is toggled.

This would allow loading programs like below:

    SEC("struct_ops/foo") int BPF_PROG(foo) { ... }
    SEC("struct_ops/bar") int BPF_PROG(bar) { ... }

    struct bpf_testmod_ops___v1 {
        int (*foo)(void);
    };

    struct bpf_testmod_ops___v2 {
        int (*foo)(void);
        int (*bar)(void);
    };

    /* Assume kernel type name to be 'test_ops' */
    SEC(".struct_ops.link")
    struct test_ops___v1 map_v1 = {
        /* Program 'foo' shared by maps with
         * different local BTF type
         */
        .foo = (void *)foo
    };

    SEC(".struct_ops.link")
    struct test_ops___v2 map_v2 = {
        .foo = (void *)foo,
        .bar = (void *)bar
    };

Assuming the following tweaks are done before loading:

    /* to load v1 */
    bpf_map__set_autocreate(skel->maps.map_v1, true);
    bpf_map__set_autocreate(skel->maps.map_v2, false);

    /* to load v2 */
    bpf_map__set_autocreate(skel->maps.map_v1, false);
    bpf_map__set_autocreate(skel->maps.map_v2, true);

Patch #7 ties autocreate and autoload flags for struct_ops maps and
programs, I'm curious if people find such bundling useful and in line
with other libbpf APIs.

Eduard Zingerman (8):
  libbpf: allow version suffixes (___smth) for struct_ops types
  libbpf: tie struct_ops programs to kernel BTF ids, not to local ids
  libbpf: honor autocreate flag for struct_ops maps
  selftests/bpf: test struct_ops map definition with type suffix
  selftests/bpf: bad_struct_ops test
  selftests/bpf: test autocreate behavior for struct_ops maps
  libbpf: sync progs autoload with maps autocreate for struct_ops maps
  selftests/bpf: tests for struct_ops autoload/autocreate toggling
