[PATCH bpf-next v2 3/3] bpf: add ability to configure BPF JIT kallsyms export at the boot time

From: Eugene Syromiatnikov
Date: Wed May 23 2018 - 07:24:42 EST


This patch introduces two configuration options,
BPF_JIT_KALLSYMS_BOOTPARAM and BPF_JIT_KALLSYMS_BOOTPARAM_VALUE, that
allow configuring the initial value of net.core.bpf_jit_kallsyms sysctl
knob. This enables export of addresses of JIT'ed BPF programs that
created during the early boot.

+ This option adds a kernel parameter 'bpf_jit_kallsyms' that allows
+ configuring default state of the net.core.bpf_jit_kallsyms sysctl
+ knob. If this option is selected, the default value of the
+ net.core.bpf_jit_kallsyms sysctl knob can be set on the kernel command

+ help
+ This option sets the default value for the kernel parameter
+ 'bpf_jit_kallsyms' that configures default value of the
+ net.core.bpf_jit_kallsyms sysctl knob at boot. If this option is set
+ to 0 (zero), the net.core.bpf_jit_kallsyms will default to 0, which
+ will lead to disabling of exporting of addresses of JIT'ed BPF
+ programs. If this option is set to 1 (one), addresses of privileged
+ BPF programs are exported to kallsyms.
