The helper uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE source of time that is less accurate but more performant. We have a BPF CGROUP_SKB firewall that supports event logging through bpf_perf_event_output(). Each event has a timestamp and currently we use bpf_ktime_get_ns() for it. Use of bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns() saves ~15-20 ns in time required for event logging. bpf_ktime_get_ns(): EgressLogByRemoteEndpoint 113.82ns 8.79M bpf_ktime_get_coarse_ns(): EgressLogByRemoteEndpoint 95.40ns 10.48M Signed-off-by: Dmitrii Banshchikov <me@ubique.spb.ru> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@fb.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20201117184549.257280-1-me@ubique.spb.ru |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
