Wang Nan 03e0a7df3e perf tools: Introduce bpf-output event
Commit a43eec3042 ("bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper")
adds a helper to enable a BPF program to output data to a perf ring
buffer through a new type of perf event, PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT. This
patch enables perf to create events of that type. Now a perf user can
use the following cmdline to receive output data from BPF programs:

  # perf record -a -e bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \
                    -e ./test_bpf_output.c/map:channel.event=evt/ ls /
  # perf script
     perf 1560 [004] 347747.086295:  evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ...
     perf 1560 [004] 347747.086300:  evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ...
     perf 1560 [004] 347747.086315:  evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ...

Wang Nan 2d055bf253 perf tools: Support setting different slots in a BPF map separately
This patch introduces basic facilities to support config different slots
in a BPF map one by one.

array.nr_ranges and array.ranges are introduced into 'struct
parse_events_term', where ranges is an array of indices range (start,
length) which will be configured by this config term. nr_ranges is the
size of the array. The array is passed to 'struct bpf_map_priv'.  To
indicate the new type of configuration, BPF_MAP_KEY_RANGES is added as a
new key type. bpf_map_config_foreach_key() is extended to iterate over
those indices instead of all possible keys.

Code in this commit will be enabled by following commit which enables
the indices syntax for array configuration.

Wang Nan 8690a2a773 perf record: Apply config to BPF objects before recording
bpf__apply_obj_config() is introduced as the core API to apply object
config options to all BPF objects. This patch also does the real work
for setting values for BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_ARRAY maps by inserting value
stored in map's private field into the BPF map.

This patch is required because we are not always able to set all BPF
config during parsing. Further patch will set events created by perf to
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY maps, which is not exist until
perf_evsel__open().

bpf_map_foreach_key() is introduced to iterate over each key needs to be
configured. This function would be extended to support more map types
and different key settings.

In perf record, before start recording, call bpf__apply_config() to turn
on all BPF config options.

Wang Nan 066dacbf2a perf bpf: Add API to set values to map entries in a bpf object
bpf__config_obj() is introduced as a core API to config BPF object after
loading. One configuration option of maps is introduced. After this
patch BPF object can accept assignments like:

  map:my_map.value=1234

(map.my_map.value looks pretty. However, there's a small but hard to fix
problem related to flex's greedy matching. Please see [1].  Choose ':'
to avoid it in a simpler way.)

This patch is more complex than the work it does because the
consideration of extension. In designing BPF map configuration, the
following things should be considered:

 1. Array indices selection: perf should allow user setting different
    value for different slots in an array, with syntax like:
    map:my_map.value[0,3...6]=1234;

 2. A map should be set by different config terms, each for a part
    of it. For example, set each slot to the pid of a thread;

 3. Type of value: integer is not the only valid value type. A perf
    counter can also be put into a map after commit 35578d7984
    ("bpf: Implement function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the
      selected hardware PMU counter")

 4. For a hash table, it should be possible to use a string or other
    value as a key;

 5. It is possible that map configuration is unable to be setup
    during parsing. A perf counter is an example.

Therefore, this patch does the following:

 1. Instead of updating map element during parsing, this patch stores
    map config options in 'struct bpf_map_priv'. Following patches
    will apply those configs at an appropriate time;

 2. Link map operations in a list so a map can have multiple config
    terms attached, so different parts can be configured separately;

 3. Make 'struct bpf_map_priv' extensible so that the following patches
    can add new types of keys and operations;

 4. Use bpf_obj_config__map_funcs array to support more map config options.

Since the patch changing the event parser to parse BPF object config is
relative large, I've put it in another commit. Code in this patch can be
tested after applying the next patch.

Wang Nan 80cdce7666 perf bpf: Rename bpf_prog_priv__clear() to clear_prog_priv()
The name of bpf_prog_priv__clear() doesn't follow perf's naming
convention. bpf_prog_priv__delete() seems to be a better name. However,
bpf_prog_priv__delete() should be a method of 'struct bpf_prog_priv',
but its first parameter is 'struct bpf_program'.

It is callback from libbpf to clear priv structures when destroying a
bpf program. It is actually a method of bpf_program (libbpf object), but
bpf_program__ functions should be provided by libbpf.

This patch removes the prefix of that function.

Wang Nan 0bb9349017 perf bpf: Rename bpf config to program config
Following patches are going to introduce BPF object level configuration
to enable setting values into BPF maps. To avoid confusion, this patch
renames existing 'config' in bpf-loader.c to 'program config'. Following
patches would introduce 'object config'.

Wang Nan d35b32891a perf bpf: Use same BPF program if arguments are identical
This patch allows creating only one BPF program for different
'probe_trace_event'(tev) entries generated by one
'perf_probe_event'(pev) if their prologues are identical.

This is done by comparing the argument list of different tev instances,
and the maps type of prologue and tev using a mapping array. This patch
utilizes qsort to sort the tevs. After sorting, tevs with identical
argument lists will be grouped together.

Test result:

Sample BPF program:

  #define SEC(NAME) __attribute__((section(NAME), used))
  SEC("inlines=no;"
      "func=SyS_dup? oldfd")
  int func(void *ctx)
  {
      return 1;
  }

It would probe at SyS_dup2 and SyS_dup3, obtaining oldfd as its
argument.

The following cmdline shows a BPF program being loaded into the kernel
by perf:

 # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog

Before this patch:

  # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog
  [1] 24858
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:09 4 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog
  ...

After this patch:

  # perf record -e ./test_bpf_arg.c sleep 4 & sleep 1 && ls /proc/$!/fd/ -l | grep bpf-prog
  [1] 25699
  lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Nov 14 04:10 3 -> anon_inode:bpf-prog

Wang Nan a08357d8dc perf bpf: Generate prologue for BPF programs
This patch generates a prologue for each 'struct probe_trace_event' for
fetching arguments for BPF programs.

After bpf__probe(), iterate over each program to check whether prologues are
required. If none of the 'struct perf_probe_event' programs will attach to have
at least one argument, simply skip preprocessor hooking. For those who a
prologue is required, call bpf__gen_prologue() and paste the original
instruction after the prologue.

He Kuang bfc077b4cf perf bpf: Add prologue for BPF programs for fetching arguments
This patch generates a prologue for a BPF program which fetches arguments for
it.  With this patch, the program can have arguments as follow:

  SEC("lock_page=__lock_page page->flags")
  int lock_page(struct pt_regs *ctx, int err, unsigned long flags)
  {
 	 return 1;
  }

This patch passes at most 3 arguments from r3, r4 and r5. r1 is still the ctx
pointer. r2 is used to indicate if dereferencing was done successfully.

This patch uses r6 to hold ctx (struct pt_regs) and r7 to hold stack pointer
for result. Result of each arguments first store on stack:

 low address
 BPF_REG_FP - 24  ARG3
 BPF_REG_FP - 16  ARG2
 BPF_REG_FP - 8   ARG1
 BPF_REG_FP
 high address

Then loaded into r3, r4 and r5.

The output prologue for offn(...off2(off1(reg)))) should be:

     r6 <- r1			// save ctx into a callee saved register
     r7 <- fp
     r7 <- r7 - stack_offset	// pointer to result slot
     /* load r3 with the offset in pt_regs of 'reg' */
     (r7) <- r3			// make slot valid
     r3 <- r3 + off1		// prepare to read unsafe pointer
     r2 <- 8
     r1 <- r7			// result put onto stack
     call probe_read		// read unsafe pointer
     jnei r0, 0, err		// error checking
     r3 <- (r7)			// read result
     r3 <- r3 + off2		// prepare to read unsafe pointer
     r2 <- 8
     r1 <- r7
     call probe_read
     jnei r0, 0, err
     ...
     /* load r2, r3, r4 from stack */
     goto success
err:
     r2 <- 1
     /* load r3, r4, r5 with 0 */
     goto usercode
success:
     r2 <- 0
usercode:
     r1 <- r6	// restore ctx
     // original user code

If all of arguments reside in register (dereferencing is not
required), gen_prologue_fastpath() will be used to create
fast prologue:

     r3 <- (r1 + offset of reg1)
     r4 <- (r1 + offset of reg2)
     r5 <- (r1 + offset of reg3)
     r2 <- 0

P.S.

eBPF calling convention is defined as:

* r0		- return value from in-kernel function, and exit value
                  for eBPF program
* r1 - r5	- arguments from eBPF program to in-kernel function
* r6 - r9	- callee saved registers that in-kernel function will
                  preserve
* r10		- read-only frame pointer to access stack

  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data ]
  # ./perf evlist

Then test 'force':

Use following program:

  # cat test_probe_force.c
  __attribute__((section("func=sys_write"), used))

  int funca(void *ctx)
  {
	  return 1;
  }

  __attribute__((section("force=yes;func=sys_write"), used))

  int funcb(void *ctx)
  {

  }

  char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";
  int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40300;
  #

  # perf record -e ./test_probe_force.c usleep 1
  Error: event "func" already exists.
   Hint: Remove existing event by 'perf probe -d'
       or force duplicates by 'perf probe -f'
       or set 'force=yes' in BPF source.

  "libcwrite=__write"
  )
  int libcwrite(void *ctx)
  {
      return 1;

Where, in section name of a program, before the main config string, we
can use 'key=value' style options. Now the only option key is "exec",

Wang Nan d3e0ce3930 perf bpf: Improve BPF related error messages
A series of bpf loader related error codes were introduced to help error
reporting. Functions were improved to return these new error codes.

Functions which return pointers were adjusted to encode error codes into
return value using the ERR_PTR() interface.

bpf_loader_strerror() was improved to convert these error messages to
strings. It checks the error codes and calls libbpf_strerror() and
strerror_r() accordingly, so caller don't need to consider checking the
range of the error code.

In bpf__strerror_load(), print kernel version of running kernel and the
object's 'version' section to notify user how to fix his/her program.

v1 -> v2:
 Use macro for error code.

 Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop.

 Print version strings.

Before:

  # perf record -e ./test_kversion_nomatch_program.o sleep 1
  event syntax error: './test_kversion_nomatch_program.o'
                       \___ Failed to load program: Validate your program and check 'license'/'version' sections in your object

Wang Nan 6371ca3b54 bpf tools: Improve libbpf error reporting
In this patch, a series of libbpf specific error numbers and
libbpf_strerror() are introduced to help reporting errors.

Functions are updated to pass correct the error number through the
CHECK_ERR() macro.

All users of bpf_object__open{_buffer}() and bpf_program__title() in
perf are modified accordingly. In addition, due to the error codes
changing, bpf__strerror_load() is also modified to use them.

bpf__strerror_head() is also changed accordingly so it can parse libbpf
errors. bpf_loader_strerror() is introduced for that purpose, and will
be improved by the following patch.

load_program() is improved not to dump log buffer if it is empty. log
buffer is also used to deduce whether the error was caused by an invalid
program or other problem.

v1 -> v2:

 - Using macro for error code.

 - Fetch error message based on array index, eliminate for-loop.

 - Use log buffer to detect the reason of failure. 3 new error code
   are introduced to replace LIBBPF_ERRNO__LOAD.

Wang Nan d509db0473 perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --event
This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event
directly using:

 # perf record --event bpf-file.c command

This patch does following works:

 1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is
    expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source
    file or object.

 2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result
    is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the
    in-memory object.

Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it:

 # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1

Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.

Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.

Wang Nan 4edf30e39e perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object files
This patch creates a 'struct perf_evsel' for every probe in a BPF object
file(s) and fills 'struct evlist' with them. The previously introduced
dummy event is now removed. After this patch, the following command:

 # perf record --event filter.o ls

Can trace on each of the probes defined in filter.o.

The core of this patch is bpf__foreach_tev(), which calls a callback
function for each 'struct probe_trace_event' event for a bpf program
with each associated file descriptors. The add_bpf_event() callback
creates evsels by calling parse_events_add_tracepoint().

Since bpf-loader.c will not be built if libbpf is turned off, an empty
bpf__foreach_tev() is defined in bpf-loader.h to avoid build errors.

Committer notes:

Before:

  # /tmp/oldperf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.198 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist
  /tmp/foo.o
  # perf evlist -v
  /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
  exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1

I.e. we create just the PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1),
PERF_COUNT_SW_DUMMY(config 0x9) event, now, with this patch:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.210 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist -v
  perf_bpf_probe:fork: type: 2, size: 112, config: 0x6bd, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 1, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD|RAW, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest:
  1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
  #

We now have a PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE (type: 1), but the config states 0x6bd,
which is how, after setting up the event via the kprobes interface, the
'perf_bpf_probe:fork' event is accessible via the perf_event_open
syscall. This is all transient, as soon as the 'perf record' session
ends, these probes will go away.

To see how it looks like, lets try doing a neverending session, one that
expects a control+C to end:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a

So, with that in place, we can use 'perf probe' to see what is in place:

  # perf probe -l
    perf_bpf_probe:fork  (on _do_fork@acme/git/linux/kernel/fork.c)

We also can use debugfs:

  [root@felicio ~]# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  p:perf_bpf_probe/fork _text+638512

Ok, now lets stop and see if we got some forks:

  [root@felicio linux]# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a
  ^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.325 MB perf.data (111 samples) ]

  [root@felicio linux]# perf script
      sshd  1271 [003] 81797.507678: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [000] 81797.524917: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [001] 81799.381603: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
      sshd 18309 [001] 81799.408635: perf_bpf_probe:fork: (ffffffff8109be30)
  <SNIP>

Sure enough, we have 111 forks :-)

Callchains seems to work as well:

  # perf report --stdio --no-child
  # To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.
  #
  # Total Lost Samples: 0

Wang Nan 1e5e3ee8ff perf tools: Load eBPF object into kernel
This patch utilizes bpf_object__load() provided by libbpf to load all
objects into kernel.

Committer notes:

Testing it:

When using an incorrect kernel version number, i.e., having this in your
eBPF proggie:

  int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40100;

For a 4.3.0-rc6+ kernel, say, this happens and needs checking at event
parsing time, to provide a better error report to the user:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1
  libbpf: load bpf program failed: Invalid argument
  libbpf: -- BEGIN DUMP LOG ---
  libbpf:

  libbpf: -- END LOG --
  libbpf: failed to load program 'fork=_do_fork'
  libbpf: failed to load object '/tmp/foo.o'
  event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o'
                       \___ Invalid argument: Are you root and runing a CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL kernel?

  (add -v to see detail)
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events

If we instead make it match, i.e. use 0x40300 on this v4.3.0-rc6+
kernel, the whole process goes thru:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.202 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist -v
  /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
  exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1

Wang Nan aa3abf30bb perf tools: Create probe points for BPF programs
This patch introduces bpf__{un,}probe() functions to enable callers to
create kprobe points based on section names a BPF program. It parses the
section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct
perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is
used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event'
is stored into program private data for further using.

By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during
event parsing.

To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook so
even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing
points are cleared. Note that bpf_clear() should be registered before
bpf__probe() is called, so failure of bpf__probe() can still trigger
bpf__clear() to remove probe points which are already probed.

strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch.
bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in
bpf-loader.c.

Committer note:

Trying it:

To build a test eBPF object file:

I am testing using a script I built from the 'perf test -v LLVM' output:

  $ cat ~/bin/hello-ebpf
  export KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS="-nostdinc -isystem /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.3/include -I/home/acme/git/linux/arch/x86/include -Iarch/x86/include/generated/uapi -Iarch/x86/include/generated -I/home/acme/git/linux/include -Iinclude -I/home/acme/git/linux/arch/x86/include/uapi -Iarch/x86/include/generated/uapi -I/home/acme/git/linux/include/uapi -Iinclude/generated/uapi -include /home/acme/git/linux/include/linux/kconfig.h"
  export WORKING_DIR=/lib/modules/4.2.0/build
  export CLANG_SOURCE=-
  export CLANG_OPTIONS=-xc

  OBJ=/tmp/foo.o
  rm -f $OBJ
  echo '__attribute__((section("fork=do_fork"), used)) int fork(void *ctx) {return 0;} char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40100;' | \
  clang -D__KERNEL__ $CLANG_OPTIONS $KERNEL_INC_OPTIONS -Wno-unused-value -Wno-pointer-sign -working-directory $WORKING_DIR -c "$CLANG_SOURCE" -target bpf -O2 -o /tmp/foo.o && file $OBJ

 ---

First asking to put a probe in a function not present in the kernel
(misses the initial _):

  $ perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1
  Probe point 'do_fork' not found.
  event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o'
                       \___ You need to check probing points in BPF file

  (add -v to see detail)
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

      -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
  $

 ---

Now, with "__attribute__((section("fork=_do_fork"), used)):

 $ grep _do_fork /proc/kallsyms
 ffffffff81099ab0 T _do_fork
 $ perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1
 Failed to open kprobe_events: Permission denied
 event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o'
                      \___ Permission denied

 ---

Cool, we need to provide some better hints, "kprobe_events" is too low
level, one doesn't strictly need to know the precise details of how
these things are put in place, so something that shows the command
needed to fix the permissions would be more helpful.

Lets try as root instead:

  # perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1
  Lowering default frequency rate to 1000.
  Please consider tweaking /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.013 MB perf.data ]
  # perf evlist
  /tmp/foo.o
  [root@felicio ~]# perf evlist -v
  /tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period,
  sample_freq }: 1000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|PERIOD, disabled: 1,
  inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, enable_on_exec: 1, task: 1,
  sample_id_all: 1, exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
