hi,
adding d_path helper to return full path for 'path' object.
I originally added and used 'file_path' helper, which did the same,
but used 'struct file' object. Then realized that file_path is just
a wrapper for d_path, so we'd cover more calling sites if we add
d_path helper and allowed resolving BTF object within another object,
so we could call d_path also with file pointer, like:
bpf_d_path(&file->f_path, buf, size);
This feature is mainly to be able to add dpath (filepath originally)
function to bpftrace, which seems to work nicely now, like:
# bpftrace -e 'kfunc:vfs_open { printf("%s\n", dpath(args->path)); }'
RFC v2 changes:
- added whitelist support, d_path helper is allowed only for
list of functions, the whitelist checking works as follows:
- helper's whitelist is defined as list of functions in file:
kernel/bpf/helpers-whitelist/helper
- at vmlinux linking time, the bpfwl tool reads the whitelist
and translates functions into BTF IDs, which are then compiled
as following data section into vmlinux object:
.BTF_whitelist
BTF_whitelist_<helper1>
BTF_whitelist_<helper2>
BTF_whitelist_<helper3>
Each BTF_whitelist_<helperX> data is a sorted array of BTF ids.
- new 'allowed' function is added to 'struct bpf_func_proto',
which is used by verifier code to check (if defined) on whether
the helper is called from allowed function (from whitelist).
Currently it's needed and implemented only for d_path helper,
but it's easy to add support for another helper.
- I don't change the btf_id value in check_func_arg as suggested by Alexei
- added new test_verifier test
