[PATCH bpf-next v2 0/8] Improve XDP samples usability and output

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

 



This set revamps XDP samples related to redirection to show better output and
implement missing features consolidating all their differences and giving them a
consistent look and feel, by implementing common features and command line
options.  Some of the TODO items like reporting redirect error numbers
(ENETDOWN, EINVAL, ENOSPC, etc.) have also been implemented.

Some of the features are:
* Received packet statistics
* xdp_redirect/xdp_redirect_map tracepoint statistics
* xdp_redirect_err/xdp_redirect_map_err tracepoint statistics (with support for
  showing exact errno)
* xdp_cpumap_enqueue/xdp_cpumap_kthread tracepoint statistics
* xdp_devmap_xmit tracepoint statistics
* xdp_exception tracepoint statistics
* Per ifindex pair devmap_xmit stats shown dynamically (for xdp_monitor) to
  decompose the total.
* Use of BPF skeleton and BPF static linking to share BPF programs.
* Use of vmlinux.h and tp_btf for raw_tracepoint support.
* Removal of redundant -N/--native-mode option (enforced by default now)
* ... and massive cleanups all over the place.

All tracepoints also use raw_tp now, and tracepoints like xdp_redirect
are only enabled when requested explicitly to capture successful redirection
statistics.

The set of programs converted as part of this series are:
 * xdp_redirect_cpu
 * xdp_redirect_map_multi
 * xdp_redirect_map
 * xdp_redirect
 * xdp_monitor

 Explanation of the output:

There is now a concise output mode by default that shows primarily four fields:
  rx/s        Number of packets received per second
  redir/s     Number of packets successfully redirected per second
  err,drop/s  Aggregated count of errors per second (including dropped packets)
  xmit/s      Number of packets transmitted on the output device per second

Some examples:
 ; sudo ./xdp_redirect_map veth0 veth1 -s
Redirecting from veth0 (ifindex 15; driver veth) to veth1 (ifindex 14; driver veth)
veth0->veth1                    0 rx/s                  0 redir/s		0 err,drop/s               0 xmit/s
veth0->veth1            9,998,660 rx/s          9,998,658 redir/s		0 err,drop/s       9,998,654 xmit/s
...

There is also a verbose mode, that can also be enabled by default using -v (--verbose).
The output mode can be switched dynamically at runtime using Ctrl + \ (SIGQUIT).

To make the concise output more useful, the errors that occur are expanded inline
(as if verbose mode was enabled) to let the user pin down the source of the
problem without having to clutter output (or possibly miss it) or always use verbose mode.

For instance, let's consider a case where the output device link state is set to
down while redirection is happening:

[...]
veth0->veth1           24,503,376 rx/s                  0 err,drop/s      24,503,372 xmit/s
veth0->veth1           25,044,775 rx/s                  0 err,drop/s      25,044,783 xmit/s
veth0->veth1           25,263,046 rx/s                  4 err,drop/s      25,263,028 xmit/s
  redirect_err                  4 error/s
    ENETDOWN                    4 error/s
[...]

The same holds for xdp_exception actions.

An example of how a complete xdp_redirect_map session would look:

 ; sudo ./xdp_redirect_map veth0 veth1 -s
Redirecting from veth0 (ifindex 5; driver veth) to veth1 (ifindex 4; driver veth)
veth0->veth1           10,557,813 rx/s         10,557,810 redir/s               0 err,drop/s   10,557,810 xmit/s
veth0->veth1           11,556,537 rx/s         11,556,536 redir/s               0 err,drop/s   11,556,535 xmit/s
