[PATCH bpf-next 0/3] samples: bpf: Refactor XDP programs with libbpf

[PATCH bpf-next 0/3] samples: bpf: Refactor XDP programs with libbpf

[Daniel T. Lee]

To avoid confusion caused by the increasing fragmentation of the BPF
Loader program, this commit would like to convert the previous bpf_load
loader with the libbpf loader.

Thanks to libbpf's bpf_link interface, managing the tracepoint BPF
program is much easier. bpf_program__attach_tracepoint manages the
enable of tracepoint event and attach of BPF programs to it with a
single interface bpf_link, so there is no need to manage event_fd and
prog_fd separately.

And due to addition of generic bpf_program__attach() to libbpf, it is
now possible to attach BPF programs with __attach() instead of
explicitly calling __attach_<type>().

This patchset refactors xdp_monitor with using this libbpf API, and the
bpf_load is removed and migrated to libbpf. Also, attach_tracepoint()
is replaced with the generic __attach() method in xdp_redirect_cpu.
Moreover, maps in kern program have been converted to BTF-defined map.

[PATCH bpf-next 1/3] samples: bpf: Refactor xdp_monitor with libbpf

[Daniel T. Lee]

To avoid confusion caused by the increasing fragmentation of the BPF
Loader program, this commit would like to change to the libbpf loader
instead of using the bpf_load.

Thanks to libbpf's bpf_link interface, managing the tracepoint BPF
program is much easier. bpf_program__attach_tracepoint manages the
enable of tracepoint event and attach of BPF programs to it with a
single interface bpf_link, so there is no need to manage event_fd and
prog_fd separately.

This commit refactors xdp_monitor with using this libbpf API, and the
bpf_load is removed and migrated to libbpf.

this syntax means "initialize *only the first element* to 0
(explicitly) and the rest of elements to default (which is also 0)".
So it's just misleading, use ` = {}`.

please move out increment into a separate statement, no need to

would be still good to call bpf_object__close(obj) here, this will
avoid warnings about memory leaks, if you run this program under ASAN

same about cleanup, goto into single cleanup place would be
appropriate throughout this entire function, probably.

Thanks for the great review!

Come to think of it, it could be confusing as you mentioned. I will
remove the unnecessary initializer in the next patch and resend it.

Jump to single cleanup will be much more intuitive.
I will update and send the next version of patch right away.

Thank you for your time and effort for the review.

Best,

[PATCH bpf-next 2/3] samples: bpf: Replace attach_tracepoint() to attach() in xdp_redirect_cpu

[Daniel T. Lee]

From commit d7a18ea7e8b6 ("libbpf: Add generic bpf_program__attach()"),
for some BPF programs, it is now possible to attach BPF programs
with __attach() instead of explicitly calling __attach_<type>().

This commit refactors the __attach_tracepoint() with libbpf's generic
__attach() method. In addition, this refactors the logic of setting
the map FD to simplify the code. Also, the missing removal of
bpf_load.o in Makefile has been fixed.

that's a convoluted and error-prone way (you can also use "tp/bla/bla"
for tracepoint programs, for example). Use
bpf_program__is_tracepoint() check.

Thanks for the review!
I think that's a much better way. I will send the next patch with applying
that method.

[PATCH bpf-next 3/3] samples: bpf: refactor XDP kern program maps with BTF-defined map

[Daniel T. Lee]

Most of the samples were converted to use the new BTF-defined MAP as
they moved to libbpf, but some of the samples were missing.

Instead of using the previous BPF MAP definition, this commit refactors
xdp_monitor and xdp_sample_pkts_kern MAP definition with the new
BTF-defined MAP format.

Also, this commit removes the max_entries attribute at PERF_EVENT_ARRAY
map type. The libbpf's bpf_object__create_map() will automatically
set max_entries to the maximum configured number of CPUs on the host.

this actually will generate unnecessary libbpf warnings, because
PERF_EVENT_ARRAY doesn't support BTF types for key/value. So use
__uint(key_size, sizeof(int)) and __uint(value_size, sizeof(u32))
instead.

Thanks for the great review!
I'll fix it right away and send the next version of patch.

Thanks for this clean up, Daniel! It's great! I left a few nits here
and there in the appropriate patches.

There still seem to be a bunch of users of bpf_load.c, which would be
nice to get rid of completely. But before you go do that, consider
integrating BPF skeleton into samples/bpf Makefile. That way instead
of all those look ups of maps/programs by name, you'd be writing a
straightforward skel->maps.my_map and similar short and non-failing
code. This should make the overall time spent on conversion much
smaller (and more pleasant, IMO).

You've dealt with a lot of samples/bpf reworking, so it should be too
hard for you to figure out the best way to do this, but check
selftests/bpf's Makefile, if you need some ideas. Or just ask for
help. Thanks!

Thanks for the great feedback!

Thank you for letting me know about the BPF features that I can apply.
Currently, I'm not familiar with the BPF skeleton yet, but I'll take a good
look at the BPF skeleton to apply it in a more advanced form.

Thank you for your time and effort for the review.
