2019-01-22tools: bpftool: add probes for kernel configuration optionsQuentin Monnet
Add probes to dump a number of options set (or not set) for compiling the kernel image. These parameters provide information about what BPF components should be available on the system. A number of them are not directly related to eBPF, but are in fact used in the kernel as conditions on which to compile, or not to compile, some of the eBPF helper functions. Sample output: # bpftool feature probe kernel Scanning system configuration... ... CONFIG_BPF is set to y CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL is set to y CONFIG_HAVE_EBPF_JIT is set to y ... # bpftool --pretty --json feature probe kernel { "system_config": { ... "CONFIG_BPF": "y", "CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL": "y", "CONFIG_HAVE_EBPF_JIT": "y", ... } } v5: - Declare options[] array in probe_kernel_image_config() as static. v4: - Add some options to the list: - CONFIG_TRACING - CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS - CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENTS - CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS - Add comments about those options in the source code. v3: - Add a comment about /proc/config.gz not being supported as a path for the config file at this time. - Use p_info() instead of p_err() on failure to get options from config file, as bpftool keeps probing other parameters and that would possibly create duplicate "error" entries for JSON. v2: - Remove C-style macros output from this patch. - NOT addressed: grouping of those config options into subsections (I don't see an easy way of grouping them at the moment, please see also the discussion on v1 thread).

2019-01-22tools: bpftool: add probes for /proc/ eBPF parametersQuentin Monnet
Add a set of probes to dump the eBPF-related parameters available from /proc/: availability of bpf() syscall for unprivileged users, JIT compiler status and hardening status, kallsyms exports status. Sample output: # bpftool feature probe kernel Scanning system configuration... bpf() syscall for unprivileged users is enabled JIT compiler is disabled JIT compiler hardening is disabled JIT compiler kallsyms exports are disabled Global memory limit for JIT compiler for unprivileged users \ is 264241152 bytes ... # bpftool --json --pretty feature probe kernel { "system_config": { "unprivileged_bpf_disabled": 0, "bpf_jit_enable": 0, "bpf_jit_harden": 0, "bpf_jit_kallsyms": 0, "bpf_jit_limit": 264241152 }, ... } These probes are skipped if procfs is not mounted. v4: - Add bpf_jit_limit parameter. v2: - Remove C-style macros output from this patch.

2019-01-22tools: bpftool: add basic probe capability, probe syscall availabilityQuentin Monnet
Add a new component and command for bpftool, in order to probe the system to dump a set of eBPF-related parameters so that users can know what features are available on the system. Parameters are dumped in plain or JSON output (with -j/-p options). The current patch introduces probing of one simple parameter: availability of the bpf() system call. Later commits will add other probes. Sample output: # bpftool feature probe kernel Scanning system call availability... bpf() syscall is available # bpftool --json --pretty feature probe kernel { "syscall_config": { "have_bpf_syscall": true } } The optional "kernel" keyword enforces probing of the current system, which is the only possible behaviour at this stage. It can be safely omitted. The feature comes with the relevant man page, but bash completion will come in a dedicated commit. v3: - Do not probe kernel version. Contrarily to what is written below for v2, we can have the kernel version retrieved in libbpf instead of bpftool (in the patch adding probing for program types). v2: - Remove C-style macros output from this patch. - Even though kernel version is no longer needed for testing kprobes availability, note that we still collect it in this patch so that bpftool gets able to probe (in next patches) older kernels as well.
