    bpf: Support attaching tracing BPF program to other BPF programs · 5b92a28a
    Alexei Starovoitov 提交于
    Allow FENTRY/FEXIT BPF programs to attach to other BPF programs of any type
    including their subprograms. This feature allows snooping on input and output
    packets in XDP, TC programs including their return values. In order to do that
    the verifier needs to track types not only of vmlinux, but types of other BPF
    programs as well. The verifier also needs to translate uapi/linux/bpf.h types
    used by networking programs into kernel internal BTF types used by FENTRY/FEXIT
    BPF programs. In some cases LLVM optimizations can remove arguments from BPF
    subprograms without adjusting BTF info that LLVM backend knows. When BTF info
    disagrees with actual types that the verifiers sees the BPF trampoline has to
    fallback to conservative and treat all arguments as u64. The FENTRY/FEXIT
    program can still attach to such subprograms, but it won't be able to recognize
    pointer types like 'struct sk_buff *' and it won't be able to pass them to
    bpf_skb_output() for dumping packets to user space. The FENTRY/FEXIT program
    would need to use bpf_probe_read_kernel() instead.
    
    The BPF_PROG_LOAD command is extended with attach_prog_fd field. When it's set
    to zero the attach_btf_id is one vmlinux BTF type ids. When attach_prog_fd
    points to previously loaded BPF program the attach_btf_id is BTF type id of
    main function or one of its subprograms.
