  • Some of the sample files are causing issues when they are loaded with tc
    and cls_bpf, meaning tc bails out while trying to parse the resulting ELF
    file as program/map/etc sections are not present, which can be easily
    spotted with readelf(1).

    Currently, BPF samples are including some of the kernel headers and mid
    term we should change them to refrain from this, really. When dynamic
    debugging is enabled, we bail out due to undeclared KBUILD_MODNAME, which
    is easily overlooked in the build as clang spills this along with other
    noisy warnings from various header includes, and llc still generates an
    ELF file with mentioned characteristics. For just playing around with BPF
    examples, this can be a bit of a hurdle to take.

    Just add a fake KBUILD_MODNAME as a band-aid to fix the issue, same is
    done in xdp*_kern samples already.

  • While hashing out BPF's current_task_under_cgroup helper bits, it came
    to discussion that the skb_in_cgroup helper name was suboptimally chosen.

    Tejun says:

    So, I think in_cgroup should mean that the object is in that
    particular cgroup while under_cgroup in the subhierarchy of that
    cgroup. Let's rename the other subhierarchy test to under too. I
    think that'd be a lot less confusing going forward.

    [...]

    It's more intuitive and gives us the room to implement the real
    "in" test if ever necessary in the future.

    Since this touches uapi bits, we need to change this as long as v4.8
    is not yet officially released. Thus, change the helper enum and rename
    related bits.

  • test_cgrp2_array_pin.c:
    A userland program that creates a bpf_map (BPF_MAP_TYPE_GROUP_ARRAY),
    pouplates/updates it with a cgroup2's backed fd and pins it to a
    bpf-fs's file. The pinned file can be loaded by tc and then used
    by the bpf prog later. This program can also update an existing pinned
    array and it could be useful for debugging/testing purpose.

    test_cgrp2_tc_kern.c:
    A bpf prog which should be loaded by tc. It is to demonstrate
    the usage of bpf_skb_in_cgroup.

    test_cgrp2_tc.sh:
    A script that glues the test_cgrp2_array_pin.c and
    test_cgrp2_tc_kern.c together. The idea is like:
    1. Load the test_cgrp2_tc_kern.o by tc
    2. Use test_cgrp2_array_pin.c to populate a BPF_MAP_TYPE_CGROUP_ARRAY
    with a cgroup fd
    3. Do a 'ping -6 ff02::1%ve' to ensure the packet has been
    dropped because of a match on the cgroup

    Most of the lines in test_cgrp2_tc.sh is the boilerplate
    to setup the cgroup/bpf-fs/net-devices/netns...etc. It is
    not bulletproof on errors but should work well enough and
    give enough debug info if things did not go well.
