====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2019-01-29
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Teach verifier dead code removal, this also allows for optimizing /
removing conditional branches around dead code and to shrink the
resulting image. Code store constrained architectures like nfp would
have hard time doing this at JIT level, from Jakub.
2) Add JMP32 instructions to BPF ISA in order to allow for optimizing
code generation for 32-bit sub-registers. Evaluation shows that this
can result in code reduction of ~5-20% compared to 64 bit-only code
generation. Also add implementation for most JITs, from Jiong.
3) Add support for __int128 types in BTF which is also needed for
vmlinux's BTF conversion to work, from Yonghong.
4) Add a new command to bpftool in order to dump a list of BPF-related
parameters from the system or for a specific network device e.g. in
terms of available prog/map types or helper functions, from Quentin.
5) Add AF_XDP sock_diag interface for querying sockets from user
space which provides information about the RX/TX/fill/completion
rings, umem, memory usage etc, from Björn.
6) Add skb context access for skb_shared_info->gso_segs field, from Eric.
7) Add support for testing flow dissector BPF programs by extending
existing BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN infrastructure, from Stanislav.
8) Split BPF kselftest's test_verifier into various subgroups of tests
in order better deal with merge conflicts in this area, from Jakub.
9) Add support for queue/stack manipulations in bpftool, from Stanislav.
10) Document BTF, from Yonghong.
11) Dump supported ELF section names in libbpf on program load
failure, from Taeung.
12) Silence a false positive compiler warning in verifier's BTF
handling, from Peter.
13) Fix help string in bpftool's feature probing, from Prashant.
14) Remove duplicate includes in BPF kselftests, from Yue.

Introduction +*************** + +BTF (BPF Type Format) is the meta data format which +encodes the debug info related to BPF program/map. +The name BTF was used initially to describe +data types. The BTF was later extended to include +function info for defined subroutines, and line info +for source/line information. + +The debug info is used for map pretty print, function +signature, etc. The function signature enables better +bpf program/function kernel symbol. +The line info helps generate +source annotated translated byte code, jited code +and verifier log. + +The BTF specification contains two parts, + * BTF kernel API + * BTF ELF file format + +The kernel API is the contract between +user space and kernel. The kernel verifies +the BTF info before using it. +The ELF file format is a user space contract +between ELF file and libbpf loader. + +The type and string sections are part of the +BTF kernel API, describing the debug info +(mostly types related) referenced by the bpf program. +These two sections are discussed in +details in :ref:`BTF_Type_String`. + +.. _BTF_Type_String: + +2. BTF Type and String Encoding +******************************* + +The file ``include/uapi/linux/btf.h`` provides high +level definition on how types/strings are encoded. + +The beginning of data blob must be:: + + struct btf_header { + __u16 magic; + __u8 version; + __u8 flags; + __u32 hdr_len; + + /* All offsets are in bytes relative to the end of this header */ + __u32 type_off; /* offset of type section */ + __u32 type_len; /* length of type section */ + __u32 str_off; /* offset of string section */ + __u32 str_len; /* length of string section */ + }; + +The magic is ``0xeB9F``, which has different encoding for big and little +endian system, and can be used to test whether BTF is generated for +big or little endian target. +The btf_header is designed to be extensible with hdr_len equal to +``sizeof(struct btf_header)`` when the data blob is generated. + +2.1 String Encoding +=================== + +The first string in the string section must be a null string. +The rest of string table is a concatenation of other null-treminated +strings. + +2.2 Type Encoding +================= + +The type id ``0`` is reserved for ``void`` type. +The type section is parsed sequentially and the type id is assigned to +each recognized type starting from id ``1``. +Currently, the following types are supported:: + + #define BTF_KIND_INT 1 /* Integer */ + #define BTF_KIND_PTR 2 /* Pointer */ + #define BTF_KIND_ARRAY 3 /* Array */ + #define BTF_KIND_STRUCT 4 /* Struct */ + #define BTF_KIND_UNION 5 /* Union */ + #define BTF_KIND_ENUM 6 /* Enumeration */ + #define BTF_KIND_FWD 7 /* Forward */ + #define BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF 8 /* Typedef */ + #define BTF_KIND_VOLATILE 9 /* Volatile */ + #define BTF_KIND_CONST 10 /* Const */ + #define BTF_KIND_RESTRICT 11 /* Restrict */ + #define BTF_KIND_FUNC 12 /* Function */ + #define BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO 13 /* Function Proto */ + +Note that the type section encodes debug info, not just pure types. +``BTF_KIND_FUNC`` is not a type, and it represents a defined subprogram. + +Each type contains the following common data:: + + struct btf_type { + __u32 name_off; + /* "info" bits arrangement + * bits 0-15: vlen (e.g. # of struct's members) + * bits 16-23: unused + * bits 24-27: kind (e.g. int, ptr, array...etc) + * bits 28-30: unused + * bit 31: kind_flag, currently used by + * struct, union and fwd + */ + __u32 info; + /* "size" is used by INT, ENUM, STRUCT and UNION. + * "size" tells the size of the type it is describing. + * + * "type" is used by PTR, TYPEDEF, VOLATILE, CONST, RESTRICT, + * FUNC and FUNC_PROTO. + * "type" is a type_id referring to another type. + */ + union { + __u32 size; + __u32 type; + }; + }; + +For certain kinds, the common data are followed by kind specific data. +The ``name_off`` in ``struct btf_type`` specifies the offset in the string table. +The following details encoding of each kind. + +2.2.1 BTF_KIND_INT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: any valid offset + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_INT + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``size``: the size of the int type in bytes. + +``btf_type`` is followed by a ``u32`` with following bits arrangement:: + + #define BTF_INT_ENCODING(VAL) (((VAL) & 0x0f000000) >> 24) + #define BTF_INT_OFFSET(VAL) (((VAL & 0x00ff0000)) >> 16) + #define BTF_INT_BITS(VAL) ((VAL) & 0x000000ff) + +The ``BTF_INT_ENCODING`` has the following attributes:: + + #define BTF_INT_SIGNED (1 << 0) + #define BTF_INT_CHAR (1 << 1) + #define BTF_INT_BOOL (1 << 2) + +The ``BTF_INT_ENCODING()`` provides extra information, signness, +char, or bool, for the int type. The char and bool encoding +are mostly useful for pretty print. At most one encoding can +be specified for the int type. + +The ``BTF_INT_BITS()`` specifies the number of actual bits held by +this int type. For example, a 4-bit bitfield encodes +``BTF_INT_BITS()`` equals to 4. The ``btf_type.size * 8`` +must be equal to or greater than ``BTF_INT_BITS()`` for the type. +The maximum value of ``BTF_INT_BITS()`` is 128. + +The ``BTF_INT_OFFSET()`` specifies the starting bit offset to +calculate values for this int. For example, a bitfield struct +member has + + * btf member bit offset 100 from the start of the structure, + * btf member pointing to an int type, + * the int type has ``BTF_INT_OFFSET() = 2`` and ``BTF_INT_BITS() = 4`` + +Then in the struct memory layout, this member will occupy +``4`` bits starting from bits ``100 + 2 = 102``. + +Alternatively, the bitfield struct member can be the following to +access the same bits as the above: + + * btf member bit offset 102, + * btf member pointing to an int type, + * the int type has ``BTF_INT_OFFSET() = 0`` and ``BTF_INT_BITS() = 4`` + +The original intention of ``BTF_INT_OFFSET()`` is to provide +flexibility of bitfield encoding. +Currently, both llvm and pahole generates ``BTF_INT_OFFSET() = 0`` +for all int types. + +2.2.2 BTF_KIND_PTR +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_PTR + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: the pointee type of the pointer + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.3 BTF_KIND_ARRAY +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_ARRAY + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``size/type``: 0, not used + +btf_type is followed by one "struct btf_array":: + + struct btf_array { + __u32 type; + __u32 index_type; + __u32 nelems; + }; + +The ``struct btf_array`` encoding: + * ``type``: the element type + * ``index_type``: the index type + * ``nelems``: the number of elements for this array (``0`` is also allowed). + +The ``index_type`` can be any regular int types +(u8, u16, u32, u64, unsigned __int128). +The original design of including ``index_type`` follows dwarf +which has a ``index_type`` for its array type. +Currently in BTF, beyond type verification, the ``index_type`` is not used. + +The ``struct btf_array`` allows chaining through element type to represent +multiple dimensional arrays. For example, ``int a[5][6]``, the following +type system illustrates the chaining: + + * [1]: int + * [2]: array, ``btf_array.type = [1]``, ``btf_array.nelems = 6`` + * [3]: array, ``btf_array.type = [2]``, ``btf_array.nelems = 5`` + +Currently, both pahole and llvm collapse multiple dimensional array +into one dimensional array, e.g., ``a[5][6]``, the btf_array.nelems +equal to ``30``. This is because the original use case is map pretty +print where the whole array is dumped out so one dimensional array +is enough. As more BTF usage is explored, pahole and llvm can be +changed to generate proper chained representation for +multiple dimensional arrays. + +2.2.4 BTF_KIND_STRUCT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +2.2.5 BTF_KIND_UNION +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 or offset to a valid C identifier + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 or 1 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_STRUCT or BTF_KIND_UNION + * ``info.vlen``: the number of struct/union members + * ``info.size``: the size of the struct/union in bytes + +``btf_type`` is followed by ``info.vlen`` number of ``struct btf_member``.:: + + struct btf_member { + __u32 name_off; + __u32 type; + __u32 offset; + }; + +``struct btf_member`` encoding: + * ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier + * ``type``: the member type + * ``offset``: <see below> + +If the type info ``kind_flag`` is not set, the offset contains +only bit offset of the member. Note that the base type of the +bitfield can only be int or enum type. If the bitfield size +is 32, the base type can be either int or enum type. +If the bitfield size is not 32, the base type must be int, +and int type ``BTF_INT_BITS()`` encodes the bitfield size. + +If the ``kind_flag`` is set, the ``btf_member.offset`` +contains both member bitfield size and bit offset. The +bitfield size and bit offset are calculated as below.:: + + #define BTF_MEMBER_BITFIELD_SIZE(val) ((val) >> 24) + #define BTF_MEMBER_BIT_OFFSET(val) ((val) & 0xffffff) + +In this case, if the base type is an int type, it must +be a regular int type: + + * ``BTF_INT_OFFSET()`` must be 0. + * ``BTF_INT_BITS()`` must be equal to ``{1,2,4,8,16} * 8``. + +The following kernel patch introduced ``kind_flag`` and +explained why both modes exist: + + https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/9d5f9f701b1891466fb3dbb1806ad97716f95cc3#diff-fa650a64fdd3968396883d2fe8215ff3 + +2.2.6 BTF_KIND_ENUM +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 or offset to a valid C identifier + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_ENUM + * ``info.vlen``: number of enum values + * ``size``: 4 + +``btf_type`` is followed by ``info.vlen`` number of ``struct btf_enum``.:: + + struct btf_enum { + __u32 name_off; + __s32 val; + }; + +The ``btf_enum`` encoding: + * ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier + * ``val``: any value + +2.2.7 BTF_KIND_FWD +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 for struct, 1 for union + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_FWD + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: 0 + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.8 BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_TYPEDEF + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: the type which can be referred by name at ``name_off`` + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.9 BTF_KIND_VOLATILE +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_VOLATILE + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: the type with ``volatile`` qualifier + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.10 BTF_KIND_CONST +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_CONST + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: the type with ``const`` qualifier + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.11 BTF_KIND_RESTRICT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: 0 + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_RESTRICT + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: the type with ``restrict`` qualifier + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +2.2.12 BTF_KIND_FUNC +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement: + * ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier + * ``info.kind_flag``: 0 + * ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_FUNC + * ``info.vlen``: 0 + * ``type``: a BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO type + +No additional type data follow ``btf_type``. + +A BTF_KIND_FUNC defines, not a type, but a subprogram (function) whose +signature is defined by ``type``.

BTF Kernel API +***************** + +The following bpf syscall command involves BTF: + * BPF_BTF_LOAD: load a blob of BTF data into kernel + * BPF_MAP_CREATE: map creation with btf key and value type info. + * BPF_PROG_LOAD: prog load with btf function and line info. + * BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID: get a btf fd + * BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD: btf, func_info, line_info + and other btf related info are returned. + +The workflow typically looks like: +:: + + Application: + BPF_BTF_LOAD + | + v + BPF_MAP_CREATE and BPF_PROG_LOAD + | + V + ...... + + Introspection tool: + ...... + BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_NEXT_ID (get prog/map id's) + | + V + BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_FD_BY_ID (get a prog/map fd) + | + V + BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD (get bpf_prog_info/bpf_map_info with btf_id) + | | + V | + BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID (get btf_fd) | + | | + V | + BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD (get btf) | + | | + V V + pretty print types, dump func signatures and line info, etc. + + +3.1 BPF_BTF_LOAD +================ + +Load a blob of BTF data into kernel. A blob of data +described in :ref:`BTF_Type_String` +can be directly loaded into the kernel. +A ``btf_fd`` returns to userspace. + +3.2 BPF_MAP_CREATE +================== + +A map can be created with ``btf_fd`` and specified key/value type id.:: + + __u32 btf_fd; /* fd pointing to a BTF type data */ + __u32 btf_key_type_id; /* BTF type_id of the key */ + __u32 btf_value_type_id; /* BTF type_id of the value */ + +In libbpf, the map can be defined with extra annotation like below: +:: + + struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") btf_map = { + .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY, + .key_size = sizeof(int), + .value_size = sizeof(struct ipv_counts), + .max_entries = 4, + }; + BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR(btf_map, int, struct ipv_counts); + +Here, the parameters for macro BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR are map name, +key and value types for the map. +During ELF parsing, libbpf is able to extract key/value type_id's +and assigned them to BPF_MAP_CREATE attributes automatically. + +.. _BPF_Prog_Load: + +3.3 BPF_PROG_LOAD +================= + +During prog_load, func_info and line_info can be passed to kernel with +proper values for the following attributes: +:: + + __u32 insn_cnt; + __aligned_u64 insns; + ...... + __u32 prog_btf_fd; /* fd pointing to BTF type data */ + __u32 func_info_rec_size; /* userspace bpf_func_info size */ + __aligned_u64 func_info; /* func info */ + __u32 func_info_cnt; /* number of bpf_func_info records */ + __u32 line_info_rec_size; /* userspace bpf_line_info size */ + __aligned_u64 line_info; /* line info */ + __u32 line_info_cnt; /* number of bpf_line_info records */ + +The func_info and line_info are an array of below, respectively.:: + + struct bpf_func_info { + __u32 insn_off; /* [0, insn_cnt - 1] */ + __u32 type_id; /* pointing to a BTF_KIND_FUNC type */ + }; + struct bpf_line_info { + __u32 insn_off; /* [0, insn_cnt - 1] */ + __u32 file_name_off; /* offset to string table for the filename */ + __u32 line_off; /* offset to string table for the source line */ + __u32 line_col; /* line number and column number */ + }; + +func_info_rec_size is the size of each func_info record, and line_info_rec_size +is the size of each line_info record. Passing the record size to kernel make +it possible to extend the record itself in the future. + +Below are requirements for func_info: + * func_info[0].insn_off must be 0. + * the func_info insn_off is in strictly increasing order and matches + bpf func boundaries. + +Below are requirements for line_info: + * the first insn in each func must points to a line_info record. + * the line_info insn_off is in strictly increasing order. + +For line_info, the line number and column number are defined as below: +:: + + #define BPF_LINE_INFO_LINE_NUM(line_col) ((line_col) >> 10) + #define BPF_LINE_INFO_LINE_COL(line_col) ((line_col) & 0x3ff) + +3.4 BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_NEXT_ID + +In kernel, every loaded program, map or btf has a unique id. +The id won't change during the life time of the program, map or btf. + +The bpf syscall command BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_NEXT_ID +returns all id's, one for each command, to user space, for bpf +program or maps, +so the inspection tool can inspect all programs and maps. + +3.5 BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_FD_BY_ID + +The introspection tool cannot use id to get details about program or maps. +A file descriptor needs to be obtained first for reference counting purpose. + +3.6 BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD +========================== + +Once a program/map fd is acquired, the introspection tool can +get the detailed information from kernel about this fd, +some of which is btf related. For example, +``bpf_map_info`` returns ``btf_id``, key/value type id. +``bpf_prog_info`` returns ``btf_id``, func_info and line info +for translated bpf byte codes, and jited_line_info. + +3.7 BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID +======================== + +With ``btf_id`` obtained in ``bpf_map_info`` and ``bpf_prog_info``, +bpf syscall command BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID can retrieve a btf fd. +Then, with command BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD, the btf blob, originally +loaded into the kernel with BPF_BTF_LOAD, can be retrieved. + +With the btf blob, ``bpf_map_info`` and ``bpf_prog_info``, the introspection +tool has full btf knowledge and is able to pretty print map key/values, +dump func signatures, dump line info along with byte/jit codes. + +4. ELF File Format Interface +**************************** + +4.1 .BTF section +================ + +The .BTF section contains type and string data. The format of this section +is same as the one describe in :ref:`BTF_Type_String`. + +.. _BTF_Ext_Section: + +4.2 .BTF.ext section +==================== + +The .BTF.ext section encodes func_info and line_info which +needs loader manipulation before loading into the kernel. + +The specification for .BTF.ext section is defined at +``tools/lib/bpf/btf.h`` and ``tools/lib/bpf/btf.c``. + +The current header of .BTF.ext section:: + + struct btf_ext_header { + __u16 magic; + __u8 version; + __u8 flags; + __u32 hdr_len; + + /* All offsets are in bytes relative to the end of this header */ + __u32 func_info_off; + __u32 func_info_len; + __u32 line_info_off; + __u32 line_info_len; + }; + +It is very similar to .BTF section. Instead of type/string section, +it contains func_info and line_info section. See :ref:`BPF_Prog_Load` +for details about func_info and line_info record format. + +The func_info is organized as below.:: + + func_info_rec_size + btf_ext_info_sec for section #1 /* func_info for section #1 */ + btf_ext_info_sec for section #2 /* func_info for section #2 */ + ... + +``func_info_rec_size`` specifies the size of ``bpf_func_info`` structure +when .BTF.ext is generated. btf_ext_info_sec, defined below, is +the func_info for each specific ELF section.:: + + struct btf_ext_info_sec { + __u32 sec_name_off; /* offset to section name */ + __u32 num_info; + /* Followed by num_info * record_size number of bytes */ + __u8 data[0]; + }; + +Here, num_info must be greater than 0. + +The line_info is organized as below.:: + + line_info_rec_size + btf_ext_info_sec for section #1 /* line_info for section #1 */ + btf_ext_info_sec for section #2 /* line_info for section #2 */ + ... + +``line_info_rec_size`` specifies the size of ``bpf_line_info`` structure +when .BTF.ext is generated. + +The interpretation of ``bpf_func_info->insn_off`` and +``bpf_line_info->insn_off`` is different between kernel API and ELF API. +For kernel API, the ``insn_off`` is the instruction offset in the unit +of ``struct bpf_insn``. For ELF API, the ``insn_off`` is the byte offset +from the beginning of section (``btf_ext_info_sec->sec_name_off``). + +5. Using BTF +************ + +5.1 bpftool map pretty print +============================ + +With BTF, the map key/value can be printed based on fields rather than +simply raw bytes. This is especially +valuable for large structure or if you data structure +has bitfields. For example, for the following map,:: + + enum A { A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 }; + typedef enum A ___A; + struct tmp_t { + char a1:4; + int a2:4; + int :4; + __u32 a3:4; + int b; + ___A b1:4; + enum A b2:4; + }; + struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") tmpmap = { + .type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY, + .key_size = sizeof(__u32), + .value_size = sizeof(struct tmp_t), + .max_entries = 1, + }; + BPF_ANNOTATE_KV_PAIR(tmpmap, int, struct tmp_t); + +bpftool is able to pretty print like below: +:: + + [{ + "key": 0, + "value": { + "a1": 0x2, + "a2": 0x4, + "a3": 0x6, + "b": 7, + "b1": 0x8, + "b2": 0xa + } + } + ] + +5.2 bpftool prog dump +===================== + +The following is an example to show func_info and line_info +can help prog dump with better kernel symbol name, function prototype +and line information.:: + + $ bpftool prog dump jited pinned /sys/fs/bpf/test_btf_haskv + [...] + int test_long_fname_2(struct dummy_tracepoint_args * arg): + bpf_prog_44a040bf25481309_test_long_fname_2: + ; static int test_long_fname_2(struct dummy_tracepoint_args *arg) + 0: push %rbp + 1: mov %rsp,%rbp + 4: sub $0x30,%rsp + b: sub $0x28,%rbp + f: mov %rbx,0x0(%rbp) + 13: mov %r13,0x8(%rbp) + 17: mov %r14,0x10(%rbp) + 1b: mov %r15,0x18(%rbp) + 1f: xor %eax,%eax + 21: mov %rax,0x20(%rbp) + 25: xor %esi,%esi + ; int key = 0; + 27: mov %esi,-0x4(%rbp) + ; if (!arg->sock) + 2a: mov 0x8(%rdi),%rdi + ; if (!arg->sock) + 2e: cmp $0x0,%rdi + 32: je 0x0000000000000070 + 34: mov %rbp,%rsi + ; counts = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&btf_map, &key); + [...] + +5.3 verifier log +================ + +The following is an example how line_info can help verifier failure debug.:: + + /* The code at tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_xdp_noinline.c + * is modified as below. + */ + data = (void *)(long)xdp->data; + data_end = (void *)(long)xdp->data_end; + /* + if (data + 4 > data_end) + return XDP_DROP; + */ + *(u32 *)data = dst->dst; + + $ bpftool prog load ./test_xdp_noinline.o /sys/fs/bpf/test_xdp_noinline type xdp + ; data = (void *)(long)xdp->data; + 224: (79) r2 = *(u64 *)(r10 -112) + 225: (61) r2 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0) + ; *(u32 *)data = dst->dst; + 226: (63) *(u32 *)(r2 +0) = r1 + invalid access to packet, off=0 size=4, R2(id=0,off=0,r=0) + R2 offset is outside of the packet + +6.
