BPF Type Format (BTF)
=====================
1. Introduction
***************
BTF (BPF Type Format) is the metadata 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 of 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 systems, 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 a 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-terminated strings.
2.2 Type Encoding
=================
The type id ``0`` is reserved for ``void`` type. The type section is parsed
sequentially and 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 */
#define BTF_KIND_VAR 14 /* Variable */
#define BTF_KIND_DATASEC 15 /* Section */
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 sections detail 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 the 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: signedness, 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 generate
``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 type (``u8``, ``u16``, ``u32``,
``u64``, ``unsigned __int128``). The original design of including
``index_type`` follows DWARF, which has an ``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
multidimensional arrays. For example, for ``int a[5][6]``, the following type
information 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 multidimensional array into
one-dimensional array, e.g., for ``a[5][6]``, the ``btf_array.nelems`` is
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 multidimensional 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``. The subprogram is thus an instance of that
type. The BTF_KIND_FUNC may in turn be referenced by a func_info in the
:ref:`BTF_Ext_Section` (ELF) or in the arguments to :ref:`BPF_Prog_Load`
(ABI).
2.2.13 BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement:
* ``name_off``: 0
* ``info.kind_flag``: 0
* ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO
* ``info.vlen``: # of parameters
* ``type``: the return type
``btf_type`` is followed by ``info.vlen`` number of ``struct btf_param``.::
struct btf_param {
__u32 name_off;
__u32 type;
};
If a BTF_KIND_FUNC_PROTO type is referred by a BTF_KIND_FUNC type, then
``btf_param.name_off`` must point to a valid C identifier except for the
possible last argument representing the variable argument. The btf_param.type
refers to parameter type.
If the function has variable arguments, the last parameter is encoded with
``name_off = 0`` and ``type = 0``.
2.2.14 BTF_KIND_VAR
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement:
* ``name_off``: offset to a valid C identifier
* ``info.kind_flag``: 0
* ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_VAR
* ``info.vlen``: 0
* ``type``: the type of the variable
``btf_type`` is followed by a single ``struct btf_variable`` with the
following data::
struct btf_var {
__u32 linkage;
};
``struct btf_var`` encoding:
* ``linkage``: currently only static variable 0, or globally allocated
variable in ELF sections 1
Not all type of global variables are supported by LLVM at this point.
The following is currently available:
* static variables with or without section attributes
* global variables with section attributes
The latter is for future extraction of map key/value type id's from a
map definition.
2.2.15 BTF_KIND_DATASEC
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
``struct btf_type`` encoding requirement:
* ``name_off``: offset to a valid name associated with a variable or
one of .data/.bss/.rodata
* ``info.kind_flag``: 0
* ``info.kind``: BTF_KIND_DATASEC
* ``info.vlen``: # of variables
* ``size``: total section size in bytes (0 at compilation time, patched
to actual size by BPF loaders such as libbpf)
``btf_type`` is followed by ``info.vlen`` number of ``struct btf_var_secinfo``.::
struct btf_var_secinfo {
__u32 type;
__u32 offset;
__u32 size;
};
``struct btf_var_secinfo`` encoding:
* ``type``: the type of the BTF_KIND_VAR variable
* ``offset``: the in-section offset of the variable
* ``size``: the size of the variable in bytes
3. 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``
is returned to a 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 assign 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 have a line_info record pointing to it.
* 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 lifetime of a 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, respectively, so an
inspection tool can inspect all programs and maps.
3.5 BPF_{PROG,MAP}_GET_FD_BY_ID
===============================
An 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, an introspection tool can get the detailed
information from kernel about this fd, some of which are BTF-related. For
example, ``bpf_map_info`` returns ``btf_id`` and key/value type ids.
``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``, an introspection
tool has full btf knowledge and is able to pretty print map key/values, dump
func signatures and 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 a collection of
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 your 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 showing how func_info and line_info can help prog
dump with better kernel symbol names, function prototypes 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 of how line_info can help debugging verification
failure.::
/* 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. BTF Generation
*****************
You need latest pahole
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git/
or llvm (8.0 or later). The pahole acts as a dwarf2btf converter. It doesn't
support .BTF.ext and btf BTF_KIND_FUNC type yet. For example,::
-bash-4.4$ cat t.c
struct t {
int a:2;
int b:3;
int c:2;
} g;
-bash-4.4$ gcc -c -O2 -g t.c
-bash-4.4$ pahole -JV t.o
File t.o:
[1] STRUCT t kind_flag=1 size=4 vlen=3
a type_id=2 bitfield_size=2 bits_offset=0
b type_id=2 bitfield_size=3 bits_offset=2
c type_id=2 bitfield_size=2 bits_offset=5
[2] INT int size=4 bit_offset=0 nr_bits=32 encoding=SIGNED
The llvm is able to generate .BTF and .BTF.ext directly with -g for bpf target
only. The assembly code (-S) is able to show the BTF encoding in assembly
format.::
-bash-4.4$ cat t2.c
typedef int __int32;
struct t2 {
int a2;
int (*f2)(char q1, __int32 q2, ...);
int (*f3)();
} g2;
int main() { return 0; }
int test() { return 0; }
-bash-4.4$ clang -c -g -O2 -target bpf t2.c
-bash-4.4$ readelf -S t2.o
