Series bpf, libbpf: share BTF data show functionality | expand

Commit Message

libbpf already supports a "dumper" API for dumping type information,
but there is currently no support for dumping typed _data_ via libbpf.
However this functionality does exist in the kernel, in part to
facilitate the bpf_snprintf_btf() helper which dumps a string
representation of the pointer passed in utilizing the BTF type id
of the data pointed to.  For example, the pair of a pointer to
a "struct sk_buff" and the BTF type id of "struct sk_buff" can be
used.

Here the kernel code is generalized into btf_show_common.c.  For the
most part, code is identical for userspace and kernel, beyond a few API
differences and missing functions.  The only significant differences are

 - the "safe copy" logic used by the kernel to ensure we do not induce a
   crash during BPF operation; and
 - the BTF seq file support that is kernel-only.

The mechanics are to maintain identical btf_show_common.c files in
kernel/bpf and tools/lib/bpf , and a common header btf_common.h in
include/linux/ and tools/lib/bpf/.  This file duplication seems to
be the common practice with duplication between kernel and tools/
so it's the approach taken here.

The common code approach could likely be explored further, but here
the minimum common code required to support BTF show functionality is
used.

Currently the only "show" function for userspace is to write the
representation of the typed data to a string via

LIBBPF_API int
btf__snprintf(struct btf *btf, char *buf, int len, __u32 id, void *obj,
	      __u64 flags);

...but other approaches could be pursued including printf()-based
show, or even a callback mechanism could be supported to allow
user-defined show functions.

Here's an example usage, storing a string representation of
struct sk_buff *skb in buf:

	struct btf *btf = libbpf_find_kernel_btf();
	char buf[8192];
	__s32 skb_id;

	skb_id = btf__find_by_name_kind(btf, "sk_buff", BTF_KIND_STRUCT);
	if (skb_id < 0)
                fprintf(stderr, "no skbuff, err %d\n", skb_id);
	else
		btf__snprintf(btf, buf, sizeof(buf), skb_id, skb, 0);

I don't think this approach will work. libbpf and kernel have
considerably different restrictions and styles, I don't think it's
appropriate to take kernel code and try to fit it into libbpf almost
as is, with a bunch of #defines. It would be much cleaner, simpler,
and more maintainable to just re-implement core logic for libbpf, IMO.

It's strange that you saw btf_dump APIs, and yet decided to go with
this API instead. snprintf() is not a natural "method" of struct btf.
Using char buffer as an output is overly restrictive and inconvenient.
It's appropriate for kernel and BPF program due to their restrictions,
but there is no need to cripple libbpf APIs for that. I think it
should follow btf_dump APIs with custom callback so that it's easy to
just printf() everything, but also user can create whatever elaborate
mechanism they need and that fits their use case.

Code reuse is not the ultimate goal, it should facilitate
maintainability, not harm it. There are times where sharing code
introduces unnecessary coupling and maintainability issues. And I
think this one is a very obvious case of that.

See below a few comments as well. But overall it's really hard to
review such a humongous patch, of course. So I so far just skimmed
through it.

It's LIBBPF_0.4.0 already, I or someone else should send a patch
adding a new section in .map file.

Okay, so I've been exploring adding dumper API support.  The initial
approach I've been using is to provide an API like this:

/* match show flags for bpf_show_snprintf() */
enum {
        BTF_DUMP_F_COMPACT      =       (1ULL << 0),
        BTF_DUMP_F_NONAME       =       (1ULL << 1),
        BTF_DUMP_F_ZERO         =       (1ULL << 3),
};

struct btf_dump_emit_type_data_opts {
        /* size of this struct, for forward/backward compatibility */
        size_t sz;
        void *data;
        int indent_level;
        __u64 flags;
};
#define btf_dump_emit_type_data_opts__last_field flags

LIBBPF_API int
btf_dump__emit_type_data(struct btf_dump *d, __u32 id,
                         const struct btf_dump_emit_type_data_opts *opts);


...so the opts play a similiar role to the struct btf_ptr + flags
in bpf_snprintf_btf.  I've got this working, but the current 
implementation is tied to emitting the same C-based syntax as 
bpf_snprintf_btf(); though of course the printf function is invoked.
So a use case looks something like this:

        struct btf_dump_emit_type_data_opts opts;
        char skbufmem[1024], skbufstr[8192];
        struct btf *btf = libbpf_find_kernel_btf();
        struct btf_dump *d;
        __s32 skbid;
        int indent = 0;

        memset(skbufmem, 0xff, sizeof(skbufmem));
        opts.data = skbufmem;
        opts.sz = sizeof(opts);
        opts.indent_level = indent;

        d = btf_dump__new(btf, NULL, NULL, printffn);

        skbid = btf__find_by_name_kind(btf, "sk_buff", BTF_KIND_STRUCT);
        if (skbid < 0) {
                fprintf(stderr, "no skbuff, err %d\n", skbid);
                exit(1);
        }

        btf_dump__emit_type_data(d, skbid, &opts);


..and we get output of the form

(struct sk_buff){
 (union){
  (struct){
   .next = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
   .prev = (struct sk_buff *)0xffffffffffffffff,
   (union){
    .dev = (struct net_device *)0xffffffffffffffff,
    .dev_scratch = (long unsigned int)18446744073709551615,
   },
  },
...

etc.  However it would be nice to find a way to help printf function
providers emit different formats such as JSON without having to
parse the data they are provided in the printf function.
That would remove the need for the output flags, since the printf
function provider could control display.

If we provided an option to provider a "kind" printf function,
and ensured that the BTF dumper sets a "kind" prior to each
_internal_ call to the printf function, we could use that info
to adapt output in various ways.  For example, consider the case
where we want to emit C-type output.  We can use the kind
info to control output for various scenarios:

void c_dump_kind_printf(struct btf_dump *d, enum btf_dump_kind kind,
			void *ctx, const char *fmt, va_list args)
{	
	switch (kind) {
	case BTF_DUMP_KIND_TYPE_NAME:
		/* For C, add brackets around the type name string ( ) */
		btf_dump__printf(d, "(");
		btf_dump__vprintf(d, fmt, args);
		btf_dump__printf(d, ")");
		break;
	case BTF_DUMP_KIND_MEMBER_NAME:
		/* for C, prefix a "." to member name, suffix a "=" */
		btf_dump__printf(d, ".");
		btf_dump__vprintf(d, fmt, args);
		btf_dump__printf(d, " = ");
		break;
	...

Whenever we internally call btf_dump_kind_printf() - and have
a kind printf function - it is invoked, and once it's added formatting
it invokes the printf function.  So there are two layers of callbacks

- the kind callback determines what we print based on the kinds
  of objects provided (type names, member names, type data, etc); and
- the printf callback determines _how_ we print (e.g. to a file, stdout,
  etc).

The above suggests we'd need to add btf_dump__*printf() functions.

This might allow us to refactor bpftool such that the
type traversal code lived in libbpf, while the specifics of
how that info is to be dumped live in bpftool.  We'd probably
need to provide a C-style kind dumper out of the box in libbpf
as a default mechanism.

What do you think?

I'd use bool fields instead, we are not constrained with extensibility
of this, no need for opaque "flags" field.

data is not optional, so should be moved out and be a direct argument
to btf_dump__emit_type_data()

I might have missed the stated goal for the work you are doing with
these changes, but in my mind it's mostly debugging/information dump
of some captured data, for human consumption. I'm very skeptical about
trying to generalize it to support JSON and other "structured"
formats. Humans won't be reading JSON when they have the ability to
look at human-readable C-like syntax. For any other application where
they'd want more structured representation (e.g., if they want to
filter, aggregate, etc), it's not really hard to implement similar
(but tailored to the application's needs) logic just given a raw data
dump and BTF information. Luckily, BTF and C types are simple enough
to do this quite effortlessly.

So I'm all for doing a text dump APIs (similar to how BTF-to-C dumping
API works), but against designing it for JSON and other formats.

Curious, when you are going to dump an array, you'll have separate
enums for start of array, start of array element, end of array
element, end of array, etc? It feels a bit like re-inventing
high-level semantics of the C type system, which BTF is already doing
(in a different way, of course). Which is why I'm saying having BTF
and raw bytes dump seems to be a more appropriate approach for more
sophisticated applications that need to understand data, not just
pretty-print it.

- * Common data to all BTF show operations. Private show functions can add
- * their own data to a structure containing a struct btf_show and consult it
- * in the show callback.  See btf_type_show() below.
- *
- * One challenge with showing nested data is we want to skip 0-valued
- * data, but in order to figure out whether a nested object is all zeros
- * we need to walk through it.  As a result, we need to make two passes
- * when handling structs, unions and arrays; the first path simply looks
- * for nonzero data, while the second actually does the display.  The first
- * pass is signalled by show->state.depth_check being set, and if we
- * encounter a non-zero value we set show->state.depth_to_show to
- * the depth at which we encountered it.  When we have completed the
- * first pass, we will know if anything needs to be displayed if
- * depth_to_show > depth.  See btf_[struct,array]_show() for the
- * implementation of this.
- *
- * Another problem is we want to ensure the data for display is safe to
- * access.  To support this, the anonymous "struct {} obj" tracks the data
- * object and our safe copy of it.  We copy portions of the data needed
- * to the object "copy" buffer, but because its size is limited to
- * BTF_SHOW_OBJ_COPY_LEN bytes, multiple copies may be required as we
- * traverse larger objects for display.
- *
- * The various data type show functions all start with a call to
- * btf_show_start_type() which returns a pointer to the safe copy
- * of the data needed (or if BTF_SHOW_UNSAFE is specified, to the
- * raw data itself).  btf_show_obj_safe() is responsible for
- * using copy_from_kernel_nofault() to update the safe data if necessary
- * as we traverse the object's data.  skbuff-like semantics are
- * used:
- *
- * - obj.head points to the start of the toplevel object for display
- * - obj.size is the size of the toplevel object
- * - obj.data points to the current point in the original data at
- *   which our safe data starts.  obj.data will advance as we copy
- *   portions of the data.
- *
- * In most cases a single copy will suffice, but larger data structures
- * such as "struct task_struct" will require many copies.  The logic in
- * btf_show_obj_safe() handles the logic that determines if a new
- * copy_from_kernel_nofault() is needed.

+ * Common data to all BTF show operations. Private show functions can add
+ * their own data to a structure containing a struct btf_show and consult it
+ * in the show callback.  See btf_type_show() below.
+ *
+ * One challenge with showing nested data is we want to skip 0-valued
+ * data, but in order to figure out whether a nested object is all zeros
+ * we need to walk through it.  As a result, we need to make two passes
+ * when handling structs, unions and arrays; the first pass simply looks
+ * for nonzero data, while the second actually does the display.  The first
+ * pass is signalled by show->state.depth_check being set, and if we
+ * encounter a non-zero value we set show->state.depth_to_show to
+ * the depth at which we encountered it.  When we have completed the
+ * first pass, we will know if anything needs to be displayed if
+ * depth_to_show > depth.  See btf_[struct,array]_show() for the
+ * implementation of this.
+ *
+ * Another problem is we want to ensure the data for display is safe to
+ * access.  To support this, the anonymous "struct {} obj" tracks the data
+ * object and our safe copy of it.  We copy portions of the data needed
+ * to the object "copy" buffer, but because its size is limited to
+ * BTF_SHOW_OBJ_COPY_LEN bytes, multiple copies may be required as we
+ * traverse larger objects for display.
+ *
+ * The various data type show functions all start with a call to
+ * btf_show_start_type() which returns a pointer to the safe copy
+ * of the data needed (or if BTF_SHOW_UNSAFE is specified, to the
+ * raw data itself).  btf_show_obj_safe() is responsible for
+ * using copy_from_kernel_nofault() to update the safe data if necessary
+ * as we traverse the object's data.  skbuff-like semantics are
+ * used:
+ *
+ * - obj.head points to the start of the toplevel object for display
+ * - obj.size is the size of the toplevel object
+ * - obj.data points to the current point in the original data at
+ *   which our safe data starts.  obj.data will advance as we copy
+ *   portions of the data.
+ *
+ * In most cases a single copy will suffice, but larger data structures
+ * such as "struct task_struct" will require many copies.  The logic in
+ * btf_show_obj_safe() handles the logic that determines if a new
+ * copy_from_kernel_nofault() is needed.

+ * Common data to all BTF show operations. Private show functions can add
+ * their own data to a structure containing a struct btf_show and consult it
+ * in the show callback.  See btf_type_show() below.
+ *
+ * One challenge with showing nested data is we want to skip 0-valued
+ * data, but in order to figure out whether a nested object is all zeros
+ * we need to walk through it.  As a result, we need to make two passes
+ * when handling structs, unions and arrays; the first pass simply looks
+ * for nonzero data, while the second actually does the display.  The first
+ * pass is signalled by show->state.depth_check being set, and if we
+ * encounter a non-zero value we set show->state.depth_to_show to
+ * the depth at which we encountered it.  When we have completed the
+ * first pass, we will know if anything needs to be displayed if
+ * depth_to_show > depth.  See btf_[struct,array]_show() for the
+ * implementation of this.
+ *
+ * Another problem is we want to ensure the data for display is safe to
+ * access.  To support this, the anonymous "struct {} obj" tracks the data
+ * object and our safe copy of it.  We copy portions of the data needed
+ * to the object "copy" buffer, but because its size is limited to
+ * BTF_SHOW_OBJ_COPY_LEN bytes, multiple copies may be required as we
+ * traverse larger objects for display.
+ *
+ * The various data type show functions all start with a call to
+ * btf_show_start_type() which returns a pointer to the safe copy
+ * of the data needed (or if BTF_SHOW_UNSAFE is specified, to the
+ * raw data itself).  btf_show_obj_safe() is responsible for
+ * using copy_from_kernel_nofault() to update the safe data if necessary
+ * as we traverse the object's data.  skbuff-like semantics are
+ * used:
+ *
+ * - obj.head points to the start of the toplevel object for display
+ * - obj.size is the size of the toplevel object
+ * - obj.data points to the current point in the original data at
+ *   which our safe data starts.  obj.data will advance as we copy
+ *   portions of the data.
+ *
+ * In most cases a single copy will suffice, but larger data structures
+ * such as "struct task_struct" will require many copies.  The logic in
+ * btf_show_obj_safe() handles the logic that determines if a new
+ * copy_from_kernel_nofault() is needed.
