[PATCH v2 net-next 1/3] bpf: introduce current->pid, tgid, uid, gid, comm accessors

From: Alexei Starovoitov
Date: Fri Jun 12 2015 - 22:40:11 EST


eBPF programs attached to kprobes need to filter based on
current->pid, uid and other fields, so introduce helper functions:

u64 bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(void)
Return: current->tgid << 32 | current->pid

u64 bpf_get_current_uid_gid(void)
Return: current_gid << 32 | current_uid

bpf_get_current_comm(char *buf, int size_of_buf)
stores current->comm into buf

They can be used from the programs attached to TC as well to classify packets
based on current task fields.

Update tracex2 example to print histogram of write syscalls for each process
instead of aggregated for all.

Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
---
v1->v2: switched to init_user_ns from current_user_ns as suggested by Andy

These helpers will be mainly used by bpf+tracing, but the patch is targeting
net-next tree to minimize merge conflicts and they're useful in TC too.

The feature was requested by Wang Nan <wangnan0@xxxxxxxxxx> and
Brendan Gregg <brendan.d.gregg@xxxxxxxxx>

We've considered several alternatives:
1: 5 different helpers
Cons: every call adds performance overhead

2a: single helper that populates 'struct bpf_task_info'
and uses 'flags' with bit per field.
struct bpf_task_info {
__u32 pid;
__u32 tgid;
__u32 uid;
__u32 gid;
char comm[16];
};
bpf_get_current_task_info(task_info, size, flags)
bit 0 - fill in pid
bit 1 - fill in tgid
Pros: single helper.
Cons: not easy to use and a lot of compares in the helper itself
(two compares for each field).

2b. single helper that populates 'struct bpf_task_info'
and uses 'size' to tell how many fields to fill in.
bpf_get_current_task_info(task_info, size);
if (size >= offsetof(struct bpf_task_info, pid) + sizeof(info->pid))
info->pid = task->pid;
if (size >= offsetof(struct bpf_task_info, tgid) + sizeof(info->tgid))
info->tgid = task->tgid;
Pros: single call (with single compare per field).
Cons: still hard to use when only some middle field (like uid) is needed.

These three helpers looks as the best balance between performance and usability.
