Subject: [RFC PATCH bpf-next 0/6] bpf: add bpf_get_stack_helper
Currently, stackmap and bpf_get_stackid helper are provided
for bpf program to get the stack trace. This approach has
a limitation though. If two stack traces have the same hash,
only one will get stored in the stackmap table,
so some stack traces are missing from user perspective.
This patch implements a new helper, bpf_get_stack, will
send stack traces directly to bpf program. The bpf program
is able to see all stack traces, and then can do in-kernel
processing or send stack traces to user space through
shared map or bpf_perf_event_output.
Patches #1 and #2 implemented the core kernel support.
Patch #3 synced the new helper to tools headers.
Patches #4 and #5 added a test in samples/bpf by attaching
to a kprobe, and Patch #6 added a test in tools/bpf by
attaching to a tracepoint.
Yonghong Song (6):
bpf: change prototype for stack_map_get_build_id_offset
bpf: add bpf_get_stack helper
tools/bpf: add bpf_get_stack helper to tools headers
samples/bpf: move common-purpose perf_event functions to bpf_load.c
samples/bpf: add a test for bpf_get_stack helper
tools/bpf: add a test case for bpf_get_stack helper
