Subject: [PATCH v11 net-next 00/12] eBPF syscall, verifier, testsuite
Hi David,
I've managed to reduce this set to 12:
Patches 1-4 establish BPF syscall shell for maps and programs.
Patches 5-10 add verifier step by step
Patch 11 exposes existing instruction macros to user space
Patch 12 adds test stubs and verifier testsuite from user space
I don't know how to reduce it further. Drop verifier and
have programs loaded without verification? Sounds wrong.
If anyone has other ideas, I'll gladly reduce it further.
Note that patches 1,3,4,7 add commands and attributes to the syscall
while being backwards compatible from each other, which should demonstrate
how other commands can be added in the future.
Daniel,
bpf_common.h patch (that we discussed earlier) I didn't include here
to reduce the number of patches. It can come next.
For those who have looked at the last set of 28 patches, the difference is:
- moved attaching to tracing and sockets to future patches
- moved hash table map type implementation to future
- split verifier further and moved LD_ABS checks and state prunning to future
- instead of running verifier testsuite on real tracing programs added
test_stub.c with fake maps, context and helper functions to test verifier only
- rebased
Note, after this set the programs can be loaded for testing only. They cannot
be attached to any events. This will come in the next set.
As requested by Andy and others, here is the man page:
BPF(2) Linux Programmer's Manual BPF(2)
NAME
bpf - perform a command on eBPF map or program
SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/bpf.h>
int bpf(int cmd, union bpf_attr *attr, unsigned int size);
DESCRIPTION
bpf() syscall is a multiplexor for a range of different operations on
eBPF which can be characterized as "universal in-kernel virtual
machine". eBPF is similar to original Berkeley Packet Filter (or "clas-
sic BPF") used to filter network packets. Both statically analyze the
programs before loading them into the kernel to ensure that programs
cannot harm the running system.
eBPF extends classic BPF in multiple ways including ability to call in-
kernel helper functions and access shared data structures like eBPF
maps. The programs can be written in a restricted C that is compiled
into eBPF bytecode and executed on the eBPF virtual machine or JITed
into native instruction set.
eBPF Design/Architecture
eBPF maps is a generic storage of different types. User process can
create multiple maps (with key/value being opaque bytes of data) and
access them via file descriptor. In parallel eBPF programs can access
maps from inside the kernel. It's up to user process and eBPF program
to decide what they store inside maps.
eBPF programs are similar to kernel modules. They are loaded by the
user process and automatically unloaded when process exits. Each eBPF
program is a safe run-to-completion set of instructions. eBPF verifier
statically determines that the program terminates and is safe to exe-
cute. During verification the program takes a hold of maps that it
intends to use, so selected maps cannot be removed until the program is
unloaded. The program can be attached to different events. These events
can be packets, tracepoint events and other types in the future. A new
event triggers execution of the program which may store information
about the event in the maps. Beyond storing data the programs may call
into in-kernel helper functions which may, for example, dump stack, do
trace_printk or other forms of live kernel debugging. The same program
can be attached to multiple events. Different programs can access the
same map:
tracepoint tracepoint tracepoint sk_buff sk_buff
event A event B event C on eth0 on eth1

Syscall Arguments
bpf() syscall operation is determined by cmd which can be one of the
following:
BPF_MAP_CREATE
Create a map with given type and attributes and return map FD
BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM
Lookup element by key in a given map and return its value
BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM
Create or update element (key/value pair) in a given map
BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM
Lookup and delete element by key in a given map
BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY
Lookup element by key in a given map and return key of next ele-
ment
BPF_PROG_LOAD
Verify and load eBPF program
attr is a pointer to a union of type bpf_attr as defined below.
size is the size of the union.
union bpf_attr {
struct { /* anonymous struct used by BPF_MAP_CREATE command */
enum bpf_map_type map_type;
__u32 key_size; /* size of key in bytes */
__u32 value_size; /* size of value in bytes */
__u32 max_entries; /* max number of entries in a map */
};
struct { /* anonymous struct used by BPF_MAP_*_ELEM commands */
int map_fd;
void *key;
union {
void *value;
void *next_key;
};
};
struct { /* anonymous struct used by BPF_PROG_LOAD command */
enum bpf_prog_type prog_type;
__u32 insn_cnt;
const struct bpf_insn *insns;
const char *license;
__u32 log_level; /* verbosity level of eBPF verifier */
__u32 log_size; /* size of user buffer */
void *log_buf; /* user supplied buffer */
};
};
eBPF maps
maps is a generic storage of different types for sharing data between
kernel and userspace.
Any map type has the following attributes:
. type
. max number of elements
. key size in bytes
. value size in bytes
The following wrapper functions demonstrate how this syscall can be
used to access the maps. The functions use the cmd argument to invoke
different operations.
BPF_MAP_CREATE
int bpf_create_map(enum bpf_map_type map_type, int key_size,
int value_size, int max_entries)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.map_type = map_type,
.key_size = key_size,
.value_size = value_size,
.max_entries = max_entries
};
return bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
bpf() syscall creates a map of map_type type and given
attributes key_size, value_size, max_entries. On success it
returns process-local file descriptor or negative error other-
wise.
BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM
int bpf_lookup_elem(int fd, void *key, void *value)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.map_fd = fd,
.key = key,
.value = value,
};
return bpf(BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
bpf() syscall looks up an element with given key in a map fd.
If element is found it returns zero and stores element's value
into value. Otherwise negative error is returned.
BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM
int bpf_update_elem(int fd, void *key, void *value)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.map_fd = fd,
.key = key,
.value = value,
};
return bpf(BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
The call creates or updates element with given key/value in a
map fd. On success it returns zero or negative error otherwise.
BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM
int bpf_delete_elem(int fd, void *key)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.map_fd = fd,
.key = key,
};
return bpf(BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
The call deletes an element in a map fd with given key.
BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY
int bpf_get_next_key(int fd, void *key, void *next_key)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.map_fd = fd,
.key = key,
.next_key = next_key,
};
return bpf(BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
The call looks up an element by key in a given map fd and
returns key of next element into next_key pointer. On success it
returns zero or negative error otherwise. This method can be
used to iterate over all elements of the map.
close(map_fd)
will delete the map map_fd. Exiting process will delete all
maps automatically.
In the future maps can have different types: hash, array, bloom filter,
radix-tree, but currently only hash type is supported:
enum bpf_map_type {
BPF_MAP_TYPE_UNSPEC,
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH,
};
eBPF programs
BPF_PROG_LOAD
This cmd is used to load eBPF program into the kernel.
char bpf_log_buf[LOG_BUF_SIZE];
int bpf_prog_load(enum bpf_prog_type prog_type,
const struct bpf_insn *insns, int insn_cnt,
const char *license)
{
union bpf_attr attr = {
.prog_type = prog_type,
.insns = insns,
.insn_cnt = insn_cnt,
.license = license,
.log_buf = bpf_log_buf,
.log_size = LOG_BUF_SIZE,
.log_level = 1,
};
return bpf(BPF_PROG_LOAD, &attr, sizeof(attr));
}
prog_type one of the available program types:
enum bpf_prog_type {
BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC,
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER,
BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACING_FILTER,
};
insns array of "struct bpf_insn" instructions
insn_cnt number of instructions in the program
license license string, which must be GPL compatible to call
helper functions marked gpl_only
log_buf user supplied buffer that in-kernel verifier is using to
store verification log
log_size size of user buffer
log_level verbosity level of eBPF verifier, where zero means no
logs provided
close(prog_fd)
will unload eBPF program
The maps are accesible from programs and generally tie the two
together. Programs process various events (like tracepoint, kprobe,
packets) and store the data into maps. User space fetches data from
maps. Either the same or a different map may be used by user space as
configuration space to alter program behavior on the fly.
Events
Once an eBPF program is loaded, it can be attached to an event. Various
kernel subsystems have different ways to do so. For example:
setsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_BPF, &prog_fd, sizeof(prog_fd));
will attach the program prog_fd to socket sock which was received by
prior call to socket().
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
will attach the program prog_fd to perf event event_fd which was
received by prior call to perf_event_open().
Another way to attach the program to a tracing event is:
event_fd = open("/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/filter");
write(event_fd, "bpf-123"); /* where 123 is eBPF program FD */
/* here program is attached and will be triggered by events */
close(event_fd); /* to detach from event */
EXAMPLES
/* eBPF+sockets example:
* 1. create map with maximum of 2 elements
* 2. set map[6] = 0 and map[17] = 0
* 3. load eBPF program that counts number of TCP and UDP packets received
* via map[skb->ip->proto]++
* 4. attach prog_fd to raw socket via setsockopt()
* 5. print number of received TCP/UDP packets every second

RETURN VALUE
For a successful call, the return value depends on the operation:
BPF_MAP_CREATE
The new file descriptor associated with eBPF map.
BPF_PROG_LOAD
The new file descriptor associated with eBPF program.
All other commands
Zero.
On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EPERM bpf() syscall was made without sufficient privilege (without the
CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability).
ENOMEM Cannot allocate sufficient memory.
EBADF fd is not an open file descriptor
EFAULT One of the pointers ( key or value or log_buf or insns ) is out-
side accessible address space.
EINVAL The value specified in cmd is not recognized by this kernel.
EINVAL For BPF_MAP_CREATE, either map_type or attributes are invalid.
EINVAL For BPF_MAP_*_ELEM commands, some of the fields of "union
bpf_attr" unused by this command are not set to zero.
EINVAL For BPF_PROG_LOAD, attempt to load invalid program (unrecognized
instruction or uses reserved fields or jumps out of range or
loop detected or calls unknown function).
EACCES For BPF_PROG_LOAD, though program has valid instructions, it was
rejected, since it was deemed unsafe (may access disallowed mem-
ory region or uninitialized stack/register or function con-
straints don't match actual types or misaligned access). In such
case it is recommended to call bpf() again with log_level = 1
and examine log_buf for specific reason provided by verifier.
ENOENT For BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM or BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM, indicates that
element with given key was not found.
E2BIG program is too large.
NOTES
These commands may be used only by a privileged process (one having the
CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability).
