Alexei pointed out that we can use BPF_REG_0 which already contains imm from move_blob2blob computation. Note that we now compare the second insn's imm, but this should not matter, since both will be zeroed out for the error case for the insn populated earlier.

Instead, jump directly to success case stores in case ret >= 0, else do the default 0 value store and jump over the success case. This is better in terms of readability. Readjust the code for kfunc relocation as well to follow a similar pattern, also leads to easier to follow code now.

Andrii mentioned in [0] that switching to ARG_CONST_SIZE_OR_ZERO lets user avoid having to prove that string size at runtime is not zero and helps with not having to supress clang optimizations.

Joanne Koong says: ==================== This patchset add a new helper, bpf_loop. One of the complexities of using for loops in bpf programs is that the verifier needs to ensure that in every possibility of the loop logic, the loop will always terminate. As such, there is a limit on how many iterations the loop can do. The bpf_loop helper moves the loop logic into the kernel and can thereby guarantee that the loop will always terminate. The bpf_loop helper simplifies a lot of the complexity the verifier needs to check, as well as removes the constraint on the number of loops able to be run. From the test results, we see that using bpf_loop in place of the traditional for loop led to a decrease in verification time and number of bpf instructions by ~99%. The benchmark results show that as the number of iterations increases, the overhead per iteration decreases. The high-level overview of the patches - Patch 1 - kernel-side + API changes for adding bpf_loop Patch 2 - tests Patch 3 - use bpf_loop in strobemeta + pyperf600 and measure verifier performance Patch 4 - benchmark for throughput + latency of bpf_loop call v3 -> v4: ~ Address nits: use usleep for triggering bpf programs, fix copyright style v2 -> v3: ~ Rerun benchmarks on physical machine, update results ~ Propagate original error codes in the verifier v1 -> v2: ~ Change helper name to bpf_loop (instead of bpf_for_each) ~ Set max nr_loops (~8 million loops) for bpf_loop call ~ Split tests + strobemeta/pyperf600 changes into two patches ~ Add new ops_report_final helper for outputting throughput and latency ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Add benchmark to measure the throughput and latency of the bpf_loop call. Testing this on my dev machine on 1 thread, the data is as follows: nr_loops: 10 bpf_loop - throughput: 198.519 ± 0.155 M ops/s, latency: 5.037 ns/op nr_loops: 100 bpf_loop - throughput: 247.448 ± 0.305 M ops/s, latency: 4.041 ns/op nr_loops: 500 bpf_loop - throughput: 260.839 ± 0.380 M ops/s, latency: 3.834 ns/op nr_loops: 1000 bpf_loop - throughput: 262.806 ± 0.629 M ops/s, latency: 3.805 ns/op nr_loops: 5000 bpf_loop - throughput: 264.211 ± 1.508 M ops/s, latency: 3.785 ns/op nr_loops: 10000 bpf_loop - throughput: 265.366 ± 3.054 M ops/s, latency: 3.768 ns/op nr_loops: 50000 bpf_loop - throughput: 235.986 ± 20.205 M ops/s, latency: 4.238 ns/op nr_loops: 100000 bpf_loop - throughput: 264.482 ± 0.279 M ops/s, latency: 3.781 ns/op nr_loops: 500000 bpf_loop - throughput: 309.773 ± 87.713 M ops/s, latency: 3.228 ns/op nr_loops: 1000000 bpf_loop - throughput: 262.818 ± 4.143 M ops/s, latency: 3.805 ns/op >From this data, we can see that the latency per loop decreases as the number of loops increases. On this particular machine, each loop had an overhead of about ~4 ns, and we were able to run ~250 million loops per second.

This patch adds the kernel-side and API changes for a new helper function, bpf_loop: long bpf_loop(u32 nr_loops, void *callback_fn, void *callback_ctx, u64 flags); where long (*callback_fn)(u32 index, void *ctx); bpf_loop invokes the "callback_fn" **nr_loops** times or until the callback_fn returns 1. The callback_fn can only return 0 or 1, and this is enforced by the verifier. The callback_fn index is zero-indexed. A few things to please note: ~ The "u64 flags" parameter is currently unused but is included in case a future use case for it arises. ~ In the kernel-side implementation of bpf_loop (kernel/bpf/bpf_iter.c), bpf_callback_t is used as the callback function cast. ~ A program can have nested bpf_loop calls but the program must still adhere to the verifier constraint of its stack depth (the stack depth cannot exceed MAX_BPF_STACK)) ~ Recursive callback_fns do not pass the verifier, due to the call stack for these being too deep. ~ The next patch will include the tests and benchmark Signed-off-by: Joanne Koong <joannekoong@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211130030622.4131246-2-joannekoong@fb.com

Silence the error by initializing 'err' to 0. The warning/error seems to be a false positive since err is set early in the function. Regardless we shouldn't prevent libbpf from building for this.

Add selftest that combines two BPF programs within single BPF object file such that one of the programs is using global variables, but can be skipped at runtime on old kernels that don't support global data. Another BPF program is written with the goal to be runnable on very old kernels and only relies on explicitly accessed BPF maps. Such test, run against old kernels (e.g., libbpf CI will run it against 4.9 kernel that doesn't support global data), allows to test the approach and ensure that libbpf doesn't make unnecessary assumption about necessary kernel features.

Load global data maps lazily, if kernel is too old to support global data. Make sure that programs are still correct by detecting if any of the to-be-loaded programs have relocation against any of such maps. This allows to solve the issue ([0]) with bpf_printk() and Clang generating unnecessary and unreferenced .rodata.strX.Y sections, but it also goes further along the CO-RE lines, allowing to have a BPF object in which some code can work on very old kernels and relies only on BPF maps explicitly, while other BPF programs might enjoy global variable support. If such programs are correctly set to not load at runtime on old kernels, bpf_object will load and function correctly now.

bpf_program__set_extra_flags has just been introduced so we can still change it without breaking users. This new interface is a bit more flexible (for example if someone wants to clear a flag).
