Though currently there is no problem including bpf_util.h in kernel space BPF C programs, in next patch in this stack, I will reuse libbpf_num_possible_cpus() in bpf_util.h thus include libbpf.h in it, which will cause BPF C programs compile error. Therefore I will first remove bpf_util.h from all test BPF programs. This can also make it clear that bpf_util.h is a user-space utility while bpf_helpers.h is a kernel space utility.

An error "implicit declaration of function 'reallocarray'" can be thrown with the following steps: $ cd tools/testing/selftests/bpf $ make clean && make CC=<Path to GCC 4.8.5> $ make clean && make CC=<Path to GCC 7.x> The cause is that the feature folder generated by GCC 4.8.5 is not removed, leaving feature-reallocarray being 1, which causes reallocarray not defined when re-compliing with GCC 7.x. This diff adds feature folder to EXTRA_CLEAN to avoid this problem. v2: Rephrase the commit message.

Quentin reports that commit 07c3bbdb ("samples: bpf: print a warning about headers_install") is producing the false positive when make is invoked locally, from the samples/bpf/ directory. When make is run locally it hits the "all" target, which will recursively invoke make through the full build system. Speed up the "local" run which doesn't actually build anything, and avoid false positives by skipping all the probes if not in kbuild environment (cover both the new warning and the BTF probes).

Currently bpf_skb_cgroup_id() is not supported for CGROUP_SKB programs. An attempt to load such a program generates an error like this: libbpf: 0: (b7) r6 = 0 ... 9: (85) call bpf_skb_cgroup_id#79 unknown func bpf_skb_cgroup_id#79 There are no particular reasons for denying it, and we have some use cases where it might be useful.

It seems like periodically someone posts patches to "fix" header includes. The issue is that samples expect the include path to have the uAPI headers (from usr/) first, and then tools/ headers, so that locally installed uAPI headers take precedence. This means that if users didn't run headers_install they will see all sort of strange compilation errors, e.g.: HOSTCC samples/bpf/test_lru_dist samples/bpf/test_lru_dist.c:39:8: error: redefinition of ‘struct list_head’ struct list_head { ^~~~~~~~~ In file included from samples/bpf/test_lru_dist.c:9:0: ../tools/include/linux/types.h:69:8: note: originally defined here struct list_head { ^~~~~~~~~ Try to detect this situation, and print a helpful warning. v2: just use HOSTCC (Jiong).

If run in client mode (the default), it will add a map entry keyed by the target IP address; this map will store RTT measurements, current sequence number etc. Finally in client mode the ping command is executed, and the xdping BPF program will use the last ICMP reply, reformulate it as an ICMP request with the next sequence number and XDP_TX it. After the reply to that request is received we can measure RTT and repeat until the desired number of measurements is made. This is why the sequence numbers in the normal ping are 1, 2, 3 and 8. We XDP_TX a modified version of ICMP reply 4 and keep doing this until we get the 4 replies we need; hence the networking stack only sees reply 8, where we have XDP_PASSed it upstream since we are done. In server mode (-s), xdping simply takes ICMP requests and replies to them in XDP rather than passing the request up to the networking stack. No map entry is required. xdping can be run in native XDP mode (the default, or specified via -N) or in skb mode (-S). A test program test_xdping.sh exercises some of these options. Note that native XDP does not seem to XDP_TX for veths, hence -N is not tested. Looking at the code, it looks like XDP_TX is supported so I'm not sure if that's expected. Running xdping in native mode for ixgbe as both client and server works fine. Changes since v4 - close fds on cleanup (Song Liu) Changes since v3 - fixed seq to be __be16 (Song Liu) - fixed fd checks in xdping.c (Song Liu) Changes since v2 - updated commit message to explain why seq number of last ICMP reply is 8 not 4 (Song Liu) - updated types of seq number, raddr and eliminated csum variable in xdpclient/xdpserver functions as it was not needed (Song Liu) - added XDPING_DEFAULT_COUNT definition and usage specification of default/max counts (Song Liu) Changes since v1 - moved from RFC to PATCH - removed unused variable in ipv4_csum() (Song Liu) - refactored ICMP checks into icmp_check() function called by client and server programs and reworked client and server programs due to lack of shared code (Song Liu) - added checks to ensure that SKB and native mode are not requested together (Song Liu) Signed-off-by: Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@oracle.com> Acked-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

It makes it more robust, unifies size to pages conversion, size checks and corresponding error codes. Also it adds coverage for cgroup local storage and socket local storage 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.

Lawrence Brakmo says: ==================== 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 Cubic DCTCP Lim, DA Mbps cwnd cred drops Mbps cwnd cred drops -------- ---- ---- ---- ----- ---- ---- ---- ----- 1G, 40 35 462 -320 67% 995 1 -212 0.05% 1G, 40,cn 736 9 -78 0.07 995 1 -212 0.05 1G, 5,cn 941 2 -189 0.13 995 1 -212 0.05 Notes: --no_cn has no effect with DCTCP Lim = rate limit DA = maximum delay ack timer cred = credit in packets drops = % packets dropped v1->v2: Insures that only BPF_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS can return values 2 and 3 New egress values apply to all protocols, not just TCP Cleaned up patch 4, Update BPF_CGROUP_RUN_PROG_INET_EGRESS callers Removed changes to __tcp_transmit_skb (patch 5), no longer needed Removed sample use of EDT v2->v3: Removed the probe timer related changes v3->v4: Replaced preempt_enable_no_resched() by preempt_enable() in BPF_PROG_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS_RUN_ARRAY() macro ==================== Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Allows cgroup inet skb programs to return values in the range [0, 3]. The second bit is used to deterine if congestion occurred and higher level protocol should decrease rate. E.g. TCP would call tcp_enter_cwr() The bpf_prog must set expected_attach_type to BPF_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS at load time if it uses the new return values (i.e. 2 or 3). The expected_attach_type is currently not enforced for BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB. e.g Meaning the current bpf_prog with expected_attach_type setting to BPF_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS can attach to BPF_CGROUP_INET_INGRESS. Blindly enforcing expected_attach_type will break backward compatibility. This patch adds a enforce_expected_attach_type bit to only enforce the expected_attach_type when it uses the new return value.

Create new macro BPF_PROG_CGROUP_INET_EGRESS_RUN_ARRAY() to be used by __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_skb for EGRESS BPF progs so BPF programs can request cwr for TCP packets. Current cgroup skb programs can only return 0 or 1 (0 to drop the packet. This macro changes the behavior so the low order bit indicates whether the packet should be dropped (0) or not (1) and the next bit is used for congestion notification (cn). Hence, new allowed return values of CGROUP EGRESS BPF programs are: 0: drop packet 1: keep packet 2: drop packet and call cwr 3: keep packet and call cwr This macro then converts it to one of NET_XMIT values or -EPERM that has the effect of dropping the packet with no cn. 0: NET_XMIT_SUCCESS skb should be transmitted (no cn) 1: NET_XMIT_DROP skb should be dropped and cwr called 2: NET_XMIT_CN skb should be transmitted and cwr called 3: -EPERM skb should be dropped (no cn) Note that when more than one BPF program is called, the packet is dropped if at least one of programs requests it be dropped, and there is cn if at least one program returns cn.

Russell King says: ==================== phylink/sfp updates This is a series of updates to phylink and sfp: - Remove an unused net device argument from the phylink MII ioctl emulation code. - add support for using interrupts when using a GPIO for link status tracking, rather than polling it at one second intervals. This reduces the need to wakeup the CPU every second. - add support to the MII ioctl API to read and write Clause 45 PHY registers. I don't know how desirable this is for mainline, but I have used this facility extensively to investigate the Marvell 88x3310 PHY. A recent illustration of use for this was debugging the PHY-without-firmware problem recently reported. - add mandatory attach/detach methods for the upstream side of sfp bus code, which will allow us to remove the "netdev" structure from the SFP layers. - remove the "netdev" structure from the SFP upstream registration calls, which simplifies PHY to SFP links. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
