[PATCH v7 bpf-next 0/3] bpf: sharing bpf runtime stats with

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

 



run_time_ns is a useful stats for BPF programs. However, it is gated by
sysctl kernel.bpf_stats_enabled. When multiple user space tools are
toggling kernl.bpf_stats_enabled at the same time, they may confuse each
other.

Solve this problem with a new BPF command BPF_ENABLE_STATS.

Changes v6 => v7:
  1. Add test to verify run_cnt matches count measured by the program.

Changes v5 => v6:
  1. Simplify test program (Yonghong).
  2. Rebase (with some conflicts).

Changes v4 => v5:
  1. Use memset to zero bpf_attr in bpf_enable_stats() (Andrii).

Changes v3 => v4:
  1. Add libbpf support and selftest;
  2. Avoid cleaning trailing space.

Changes v2 => v3:
  1. Rename the command to BPF_ENABLE_STATS, and make it extendible.
  2. fix commit log;
  3. remove unnecessary headers.
