bpf: rework memlock-based memory accounting for maps
In order to unify the existing memlock charging code with the
memcg-based memory accounting, which will be added later, let's
rework the current scheme.
Currently the following design is used:
1) .alloc() callback optionally checks if the allocation will likely
succeed using bpf_map_precharge_memlock()
2) .alloc() performs actual allocations
3) .alloc() callback calculates map cost and sets map.memory.pages
4) map_create() calls bpf_map_init_memlock() which sets map.memory.user
and performs actual charging; in case of failure the map is
destroyed
<map is in use>
1) bpf_map_free_deferred() calls bpf_map_release_memlock(), which
performs uncharge and releases the user
2) .map_free() callback releases the memory
The scheme can be simplified and made more robust:
1) .alloc() calculates map cost and calls bpf_map_charge_init()
2) bpf_map_charge_init() sets map.memory.user and performs actual
charge
3) .alloc() performs actual allocations
<map is in use>
1) .map_free() callback releases the memory
2) bpf_map_charge_finish() performs uncharge and releases the user
The new scheme also allows to reuse bpf_map_charge_init()/finish()
functions for memcg-based accounting. Because charges are performed
before actual allocations and uncharges after freeing the memory,
no bogus memory pressure can be created.
In cases when the map structure is not available (e.g. it's not
created yet, or is already destroyed), on-stack bpf_map_memory
structure is used. The charge can be transferred with the
bpf_map_charge_move() function.

====================
This patchset adds support for propagating congestion notifications (cn)
to TCP from cgroup inet skb egress BPF programs.
Current cgroup skb BPF programs cannot trigger TCP congestion window
reductions, even when they drop a packet. This patch-set adds support
for cgroup skb BPF programs to send congestion notifications in the
return value when the packets are TCP packets. Rather than the
current 1 for keeping the packet and 0 for dropping it, they can
now return:
NET_XMIT_SUCCESS (0) - continue with packet output
NET_XMIT_DROP (1) - drop packet and do cn
NET_XMIT_CN (2) - continue with packet output and do cn
-EPERM - drop packet
Finally, HBM programs are modified to collect and return more
statistics.
There has been some discussion regarding the best place to manage
bandwidths. Some believe this should be done in the qdisc where it can
also be managed with a BPF program. We believe there are advantages
for doing it with a BPF program in the cgroup/skb callback. For example,
it reduces overheads in the cases where there is on primary workload and
one or more secondary workloads, where each workload is running on its
own cgroupv2. In this scenario, we only need to throttle the secondary
workloads and there is no overhead for the primary workload since there
will be no BPF program attached to its cgroup.
Regardless, we agree that this mechanism should not penalize those that
are not using it. We tested this by doing 1 byte req/reply RPCs over
loopback. Each test consists of 30 sec of back-to-back 1 byte RPCs.
Each test was repeated 50 times with a 1 minute delay between each set
of 10. We then calculated the average RPCs/sec over the 50 tests. We
compare upstream with upstream + patchset and no BPF program as well
as upstream + patchset and a BPF program that just returns ALLOW_PKT.
Here are the results:
upstream 80937 RPCs/sec
upstream + patches, no BPF program 80894 RPCs/sec
upstream + patches, BPF program 80634 RPCs/sec
These numbers indicate that there is no penalty for these patches
The use of congestion notifications improves the performance of HBM when
using Cubic. Without congestion notifications, Cubic will not decrease its
cwnd and HBM will need to drop a large percentage of the packets.
The following results are obtained for rate limits of 1Gbps,
between two servers using netperf, and only one flow. We also show how
reducing the max delayed ACK timer can improve the performance when
using Cubic.
Command used was:
./do_hbm_test.sh -l -D --stats -N -r=<rate> [--no_cn] [dctcp] \
-s=<server running netserver>
where:
<rate> is 1000
--no_cn specifies no cwr notifications
dctcp uses dctcp
Notes:
--no_cn has no effect with DCTCP
Lim = rate limit
DA = maximum delay ack timer
cred = credit in packets
drops = % packets dropped

bpf_object__load_xattr() and bpf_prog_load_xattr(). Both accept an
attribute object containing the log_level, and apply it to the programs
to load.
It turns out that to effectively load the programs, the latter function
eventually relies on the former. This was not taken into account when
adding support for log_level in bpf_object__load_xattr(), and the
log_level passed to bpf_prog_load_xattr() later gets overwritten with a
zero value, thus disabling verifier logs for the program in all cases:

bpf: decouple the lifetime of cgroup_bpf from cgroup itself
Currently the lifetime of bpf programs attached to a cgroup is bound
to the lifetime of the cgroup itself. It means that if a user
forgets (or intentionally avoids) to detach a bpf program before
removing the cgroup, it will stay attached up to the release of the
cgroup. Since the cgroup can stay in the dying state (the state
between being rmdir()'ed and being released) for a very long time, it
leads to a waste of memory. Also, it blocks a possibility to implement
the memcg-based memory accounting for bpf objects, because a circular
reference dependency will occur. Charged memory pages are pinning the
corresponding memory cgroup, and if the memory cgroup is pinning
the attached bpf program, nothing will be ever released.
A dying cgroup can not contain any processes, so the only chance for
an attached bpf program to be executed is a live socket associated
with the cgroup. So in order to release all bpf data early, let's
count associated sockets using a new percpu refcounter. On cgroup
removal the counter is transitioned to the atomic mode, and as soon
as it reaches 0, all bpf programs are detached.
Because cgroup_bpf_release() can block, it can't be called from
the percpu ref counter callback directly, so instead an asynchronous
work is scheduled.
The reference counter is not socket specific, and can be used for any
other types of programs, which can be executed from a cgroup-bpf hook
outside of the process context, had such a need arise in the future.

BPF_LOG_STATS. As mentioned in the discussion on the first version of

stable user API, therefore we simply use the related constants to print
whatever we can at this time, without trying to tell users what is
log_level1 or what is statistics.
Verifier logs are only used when loading programs for now (In the
future: for loading BTF objects with bpftool? Although libbpf does not
currently offer to print verifier info at debug level if no error
occurred when loading BTF objects), so bpftool.rst and bpftool-prog.rst

- change test methodology (Alexei):
+ instead of simple unit tests on x86_64 for which this optimization
doesn't enabled due to there is hardware support, poison high
32-bit for whose def identified as safe to do so. this could let
the correctness of this patch set checked when daily bpf selftest
ran which delivers very stressful test on host machine like x86_64.
+ hi32 poisoning is gated by a new BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 prog flags.
+ BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 is enabled for all tests of "test_progs" and
"test_verifier", the latter needs minor tweak on two unit tests,
please see the patch for the change.
+ introduced a new global variable "libbpf_test_mode" into libbpf.
once it is set to true, it will set BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 for all the
later PROG_LOAD syscall, the goal is to easy the enable of hi32
poison on exsiting testsuite.
we could also introduce new APIs, for example "bpf_prog_test_load",
then use -Dbpf_prog_load=bpf_prog_test_load to migrate tests under
test_progs, but there are several load APIs, and such new API need
some change on struture like "struct bpf_prog_load_attr".
+ removed old unit tests. it is based on insn scan and requires quite
a few test_verifier generic code change. given hi32 randomization
could offer good test coverage, the unit tests doesn't add much
extra test value.
- enhanced register width check ("is_reg64") when record sub-register
write, now, it returns more accurate width.
- Re-run all tests under "test_progs" and "test_verifier" on x86_64, no
regression. Fixed a couple of bugs exposed:
1. ctx field size transformation was not taken into account.
2. insn patch could cause lost of original aux data which is
important for ctx field conversion.
3. return value for propagate_liveness was wrong and caused
regression on processed insn number.
4. helper call arg wasn't handled properly that path prune may cause
64-bit read info in pruned path lost.
- Re-run Cilium bpf prog for processed-insn-number benchmarking, no
regression.
v1:
- Fixed the missing handling on callee-saved for bpf-to-bpf call,
sub-register defs therefore moved to frame state. (Jakub Kicinski)
- Removed redundant "cross_reg". (Jakub Kicinski)
- Various coding styles & grammar fixes. (Jakub Kicinski, Quentin Monnet)
eBPF ISA specification requires high 32-bit cleared when low 32-bit
sub-register is written. This applies to destination register of ALU32 etc.
JIT back-ends must guarantee this semantic when doing code-gen. x86_64 and
AArch64 ISA has the same semantics, so the corresponding JIT back-end
doesn't need to do extra work.
However, 32-bit arches (arm, x86, nfp etc.) and some other 64-bit arches
(PowerPC, SPARC etc) need to do explicit zero extension to meet this
requirement, otherwise code like the following will fail.
u64_value = (u64) u32_value
... other uses of u64_value
This is because compiler could exploit the semantic described above and
save those zero extensions for extending u32_value to u64_value, these JIT
back-ends are expected to guarantee this through inserting extra zero
extensions which however could be a significant increase on the code size.
Some benchmarks show there could be ~40% sub-register writes out of total
insns, meaning at least ~40% extra code-gen.
One observation is these extra zero extensions are not always necessary.
Take above code snippet for example, it is possible u32_value will never be
casted into a u64, the value of high 32-bit of u32_value then could be
ignored and extra zero extension could be eliminated.
This patch implements this idea, insns defining sub-registers will be
marked when the high 32-bit of the defined sub-register matters. For
those unmarked insns, it is safe to eliminate high 32-bit clearnace for
them.
Algo
====
We could use insn scan based static analysis to tell whether one
sub-register def doesn't need zero extension. However, using such static
analysis, we must do conservative assumption at branching point where
multiple uses could be introduced. So, for any sub-register def that is
active at branching point, we need to mark it as needing zero extension.
This could introducing quite a few false alarms, for example ~25% on
Cilium bpf_lxc.
It will be far better to use dynamic data-flow tracing which verifier
fortunately already has and could be easily extend to serve the purpose of
this patch set.
- Split read flags into READ32 and READ64.
- Record index of insn that does sub-register write. Keep the index inside
reg state and update it during verifier insn walking.
- A full register read on a sub-register marks its definition insn as
needing zero extension on dst register.
A new sub-register write overrides the old one.
- When propagating read64 during path pruning, also mark any insn defining
a sub-register that is read in the pruned path as full-register.
Benchmark
=========
- I estimate the JITed image could be 10% ~ 30% smaller on these affected
arches (nfp, arm, x32, risv, ppc, sparc, s390), depending on the prog.
- For Cilium bpf_lxc, there is ~11500 insns in the compiled binary (use
latest LLVM snapshot, and with -mcpu=v3 -mattr=+alu32 enabled), 4460 of
them has sub-register writes (~40%). Calculated by:
After this patch set enabled, > 25% of those 4460 could be identified as
doesn't needing zero extension on the destination, and the percentage
could go further up to more than 50% with some follow up optimizations
based on the infrastructure offered by this set. This leads to
significant save on JITed image.

selftests: bpf: enable hi32 randomization for all tests
The previous libbpf patch allows user to specify "prog_flags" to bpf
program load APIs. To enable high 32-bit randomization for a test, we need
to set BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 in "prog_flags".
To enable such randomization for all tests, we need to make sure all places
are passing BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32. Changing them one by one is not
convenient, also, it would be better if a test could be switched to
"normal" running mode without code change.
Given the program load APIs used across bpf selftests are mostly:
bpf_prog_load: load from file
bpf_load_program: load from raw insns
A test_stub.c is implemented for bpf seltests, it offers two functions for
testing purpose:
bpf_prog_test_load
bpf_test_load_program
The are the same as "bpf_prog_load" and "bpf_load_program", except they
also set BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32. Given *_xattr functions are the APIs to
customize any "prog_flags", it makes little sense to put these two
functions into libbpf.
Then, the following CFLAGS are passed to compilations for host programs:
-Dbpf_prog_load=bpf_prog_test_load
-Dbpf_load_program=bpf_test_load_program
They migrate the used load APIs to the test version, hence enable high
32-bit randomization for these tests without changing source code.
Besides all these, there are several testcases are using
"bpf_prog_load_attr" directly, their call sites are updated to pass
BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32.

bpf: verifier: insert zero extension according to analysis result
After previous patches, verifier will mark a insn if it really needs zero
extension on dst_reg.
It is then for back-ends to decide how to use such information to eliminate
unnecessary zero extension code-gen during JIT compilation.
One approach is verifier insert explicit zero extension for those insns
that need zero extension in a generic way, JIT back-ends then do not
generate zero extension for sub-register write at default.
However, only those back-ends which do not have hardware zero extension
want this optimization. Back-ends like x86_64 and AArch64 have hardware
zero extension support that the insertion should be disabled.
This patch introduces new target hook "bpf_jit_needs_zext" which returns
false at default, meaning verifier zero extension insertion is disabled at
default. A back-end could override this hook to return true if it doesn't
have hardware support and want verifier insert zero extension explicitly.
Offload targets do not use this native target hook, instead, they could
get the optimization results using bpf_prog_offload_ops.finalize.
NOTE: arches could have diversified features, it is possible for one arch
to have hardware zero extension support for some sub-register write insns
but not for all. For example, PowerPC, SPARC have zero extended loads, but
not for alu32. So when verifier zero extension insertion enabled, these JIT
back-ends need to peephole insns to remove those zero extension inserted
for insn that actually has hardware zero extension support. The peephole
could be as simple as looking the next insn, if it is a special zero
extension insn then it is safe to eliminate it if the current insn has
hardware zero extension support.

guarantee SRC == DST.
Implications on JIT back-ends when doing code-gen for
BPF_ALU | BPF_MOV | BPF_X:
1. No change if hardware already does zero extension unconditionally for
sub-register write.
2. Otherwise, when seeing imm == 1, just generate insns to clear high
32-bit. No need to generate insns for the move because when imm == 1,
dst_reg is the same as src_reg at the moment.
Interpreter doesn't need change as well. It is doing unconditionally zero
extension for mov32 already.
One helper macro BPF_ZEXT_REG is added to help creating zero extension
insn using this new mov32 variant.
One helper function insn_is_zext is added for checking one insn is an
zero extension on dst. This will be widely used by a few JIT back-ends in

- patch #8 adds btf_dump APIs with all the logic for laying out type
definitions in correct order and emitting C syntax for them;

- removed inlines in .c (Jakub);
- added 'format {c|raw}' keyword/option (Jakub);
- re-use i var for iteration in btf_dump_c() (Jakub);
- bumped libbpf version to 0.0.4;

- endianness check to use __BYTE_ORDER__ (Alexei);
- bool:1 to __u8:1 in type_aux_state (Alexei);

libbpf: add btf_dump API for BTF-to-C conversion
BTF contains enough type information to allow generating valid
compilable C header w/ correct layout of structs/unions and all the
typedef/enum definitions. This patch adds a new "object" - btf_dump to
facilitate dumping BTF as valid C. btf_dump__dump_type() is the main API
which takes care of dumping out (through user-provided printf-like
callback function) C definitions for given type ID and it's required
dependencies. This allows for not just dumping out entirety of BTF types,
but also selective filtering based on user-provided criterias w/ minimal
set of dependent types.
There is a need for fast point lookups inside libbpf for multiple use
cases (e.g., name resolution for BTF-to-C conversion, by-name lookups in
BTF for upcoming BPF CO-RE relocation support, etc). This patch
implements simple resizable non-thread safe hashmap using single linked
list chains.
Four different insert strategies are supported:
- HASHMAP_ADD - only add key/value if key doesn't exist yet;
- HASHMAP_SET - add key/value pair if key doesn't exist yet; otherwise,
update value;
- HASHMAP_UPDATE - update value, if key already exists; otherwise, do
nothing and return -ENOENT;
- HASHMAP_APPEND - always add key/value pair, even if key already exists.
This turns hashmap into a multimap by allowing multiple values to be
associated with the same key. Most useful read API for such hashmap is
hashmap__for_each_key_entry() iteration. If hashmap__find() is still
used, it will return last inserted key/value entry (first in a bucket
chain).
For HASHMAP_SET and HASHMAP_UPDATE, old key/value pair is returned, so
that calling code can handle proper memory management, if necessary.

All prune points inside a callee bpf function most likely will have
different callsites. For example, if function foo() is called from
two callsites the half of explored states in all prune points in foo()
will be useless for subsequent walking of one of those callsites.
Fortunately explored_states pruning heuristics keeps the number of states
per prune point small, but walking these states is still a waste of cpu
time when the callsite of the current state is different from the callsite
of the explored state.
To improve pruning logic convert explored_states into hash table and
use simple insn_idx ^ callsite hash to select hash bucket.
This optimization has no effect on programs without bpf2bpf calls
and drastically improves programs with calls.
In the later case it reduces total memory consumption in 1M scale tests
by almost 3 times (peak_states drops from 5752 to 2016).
Care should be taken when comparing the states for equivalency.
Since the same hash bucket can now contain states with different indices
the insn_idx has to be part of verifier_state and compared.
Different hash table sizes and different hash functions were explored,
but the results were not significantly better vs this patch.
They can be improved in the future.
Hit/miss heuristic is not counting index miscompare as a miss.
Otherwise verifier stats become unstable when experimenting
with different hash functions.

Adjust scale tests to check for new jmp sequence limit.
BPF_JGT had to be changed to BPF_JEQ because the verifier was
too smart. It tracked the known safe range of R0 values
and pruned the search earlier before hitting exact 8192 limit.
bpf_semi_rand_get() was too (un)?lucky.
k = 0; was missing in bpf_fill_scale2.
It was testing a bit shorter sequence of jumps than intended.

libbpf: emit diff of mismatched public API, if any
It's easy to have a mismatch of "intended to be public" vs really
exposed API functions. While Makefile does check for this mismatch, if
it actually occurs it's not trivial to determine which functions are
accidentally exposed. This patch dumps out a diff showing what's not
supposed to be exposed facilitating easier fixing.

hv_sock: perf: loop in send() to maximize bandwidth
Currently, the hv_sock send() iterates once over the buffer, puts data into
the VMBUS channel and returns. It doesn't maximize on the case when there
is a simultaneous reader draining data from the channel. In such a case,
the send() can maximize the bandwidth (and consequently minimize the cpu
cycles) by iterating until the channel is found to be full.
Perf data:
Total Data Transfer: 10GB/iteration
Single threaded reader/writer, Linux hvsocket writer with Windows hvsocket
reader
Packet size: 64KB
CPU sys time was captured using the 'time' command for the writer to send
10GB of data.
'Send Buffer Loop' is with the patch applied.
The values below are over 10 iterations.
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| | Current | Send Buffer Loop |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| | Throughput | CPU sys | Throughput | CPU sys |
| | (MB/s) | time (s) | (MB/s) | time (s) |

|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Median | 446 | 7.417 | 447 | 6.761 |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
Observation:
1. The avg throughput doesn't really change much with this change for this
scenario. This is most probably because the bottleneck on throughput is
somewhere else.
2. The average system (or kernel) cpu time goes down by 10%+ with this
change, for the same amount of data transfer.

hv_sock: perf: Allow the socket buffer size options to influence the actual socket buffers
Currently, the hv_sock buffer size is static and can't scale to the
bandwidth requirements of the application. This change allows the
applications to influence the socket buffer sizes using the SO_SNDBUF and
the SO_RCVBUF socket options.
Few interesting points to note:
1. Since the VMBUS does not allow a resize operation of the ring size, the
socket buffer size option should be set prior to establishing the
connection for it to take effect.
2. Setting the socket option comes with the cost of that much memory being
reserved/allocated by the kernel, for the lifetime of the connection.

selftests: pmtu: Simplify cleanup and namespace names
The point of the pause-on-fail argument is to leave the setup as is after
a test fails to allow a user to debug why it failed. Move the cleanup
after posting the result to the user to make it so.
Random names for the namespaces are not user friendly when trying to
debug a failure. Make them simpler and more direct for the tests. Run
cleanup at the beginning to ensure they are cleaned up if they already
exist.
Remove cleanup_done. There is no harm in doing cleanup twice; just
ignore any errors related to not existing - which is already done.
