[PATCH bpf-next v2 1/3] libbpf: add support to set kprobe/uprobe attach mode

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

 



From: Menglong Dong <imagedong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

By default, libbpf will attach the kprobe/uprobe eBPF program in the
latest mode that supported by kernel. In this patch, we add the support
to let users manually attach kprobe/uprobe in legacy or perf mode.

There are 3 mode that supported by the kernel to attach kprobe/uprobe:

  LEGACY: create perf event in legacy way and don't use bpf_link
  PERF: create perf event with perf_event_open() and don't use bpf_link
  LINK: create perf event with perf_event_open() and use bpf_link

Users now can manually choose the mode with
bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts()/bpf_program__attach_kprobe_opts().

v2:
- rename no_link to force_ioctl_attach
- rename probe_mode to probe_attach_mode
- add more doc for probe_attach_mode
- return -ENOTSUP when necessray in bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts and
  bpf_program__attach_kprobe_opts
