DESCRIPTION
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
The extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) subsystem consists in programs
|
|
written in a pseudo-assembly language, then attached to one of the several
|
|
kernel hooks and run in reaction of specific events. This framework differs
|
|
from the older, "classic" BPF (or "cBPF") in several aspects, one of them being
|
|
the ability to call special functions (or "helpers") from within a program.
|
|
These functions are restricted to a white-list of helpers defined in the
|
|
kernel.
|
|
|
|
These helpers are used by eBPF programs to interact with the system, or with
|
|
the context in which they work. For instance, they can be used to print
|
|
debugging messages, to get the time since the system was booted, to interact
|
|
with eBPF maps, or to manipulate network packets. Since there are several eBPF
|
|
program types, and that they do not run in the same context, each program type
|
|
can only call a subset of those helpers.
|
|
|
|
Due to eBPF conventions, a helper can not have more than five arguments.
|
|
|
|
Internally, eBPF programs call directly into the compiled helper functions
|
|
without requiring any foreign-function interface. As a result, calling helpers
|
|
introduces no overhead, thus offering excellent performance.
|
|
|
|
This document is an attempt to list and document the helpers available to eBPF
|
|
developers. They are sorted by chronological order (the oldest helpers in the
|
|
kernel at the top).

EXAMPLES
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Example usage for most of the eBPF helpers listed in this manual page are
|
|
available within the Linux kernel sources, at the following locations:
|
|
|
|
* *samples/bpf/*
|
|
* *tools/testing/selftests/bpf/*
|
|
|
|
LICENSE
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
eBPF programs can have an associated license, passed along with the bytecode
|
|
instructions to the kernel when the programs are loaded. The format for that
|
|
string is identical to the one in use for kernel modules (Dual licenses, such
|
|
as "Dual BSD/GPL", may be used). Some helper functions are only accessible to
|
|
programs that are compatible with the GNU Privacy License (GPL).
|
|
|
|
In order to use such helpers, the eBPF program must be loaded with the correct
|
|
license string passed (via **attr**) to the **bpf**\ () system call, and this
|
|
generally translates into the C source code of the program containing a line
|
|
similar to the following:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
char ____license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";
|
|
|
|
IMPLEMENTATION
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
This manual page is an effort to document the existing eBPF helper functions.
|
|
But as of this writing, the BPF sub-system is under heavy development. New eBPF
|
|
program or map types are added, along with new helper functions. Some helpers
|
|
are occasionally made available for additional program types. So in spite of
|
|
the efforts of the community, this page might not be up-to-date. If you want to
|
|
check by yourself what helper functions exist in your kernel, or what types of
|
|
programs they can support, here are some files among the kernel tree that you
|
|
may be interested in:
|
|
|
|
* *include/uapi/linux/bpf.h* is the main BPF header. It contains the full list
|
|
of all helper functions, as well as many other BPF definitions including most
|
|
of the flags, structs or constants used by the helpers.
|
|
* *net/core/filter.c* contains the definition of most network-related helper
|
|
functions, and the list of program types from which they can be used.
|
|
* *kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c* is the equivalent for most tracing program-related
|
|
helpers.
|
|
* *kernel/bpf/verifier.c* contains the functions used to check that valid types
|
|
of eBPF maps are used with a given helper function.
|
|
* *kernel/bpf/* directory contains other files in which additional helpers are
|
|
defined (for cgroups, sockmaps, etc.).
|
|
|
|
Compatibility between helper functions and program types can generally be found
|
|
in the files where helper functions are defined. Look for the **struct
|
|
bpf_func_proto** objects and for functions returning them: these functions
|
|
contain a list of helpers that a given program type can call. Note that the
|
|
**default:** label of the **switch ... case** used to filter helpers can call
|
|
other functions, themselves allowing access to additional helpers. The
|
|
requirement for GPL license is also in those **struct bpf_func_proto**.
|
|
|
|
Compatibility between helper functions and map types can be found in the
|
|
**check_map_func_compatibility**\ () function in file *kernel/bpf/verifier.c*.
|
|
|
|
Helper functions that invalidate the checks on **data** and **data_end**
|
|
pointers for network processing are listed in function
|
|
**bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data**\ () in file *net/core/filter.c*.
