Yeah, we use perf to perf perf, so we need to use bpf with perf to perf bpf :-) Look at tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bpf_prog_profiler.bpf.c, the BPF skeleton used to create the in-kernel scaffold to profile BPF programs. It uses two BPF programs (fentry/XXX and fexit/XXX) and some a PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map and an array to diff counters read at exit from counters read at exit of the profiled BPF programs and then accumulate those diffs in another PERCPU_ARRAY. This all ends up composing a "BPF PMU" that is what the userspace perf tooling will read (from "accum_readings" BPF map) and 'perf stat' will consume as if reading from an "old style perf counter" :-) Song, did I get it right? :-) For convenience, it is below: - Arnaldo [acme@five perf]$ cat tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bpf_prog_profiler.bpf.c // SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause) // Copyright (c) 2020 Facebook #include <linux/bpf.h> #include <bpf/bpf_helpers.h> #include <bpf/bpf_tracing.h> /* map of perf event fds, num_cpu * num_metric entries */ struct { __uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY); __uint(key_size, sizeof(__u32)); __uint(value_size, sizeof(int)); } events SEC(".maps"); /* readings at fentry */ struct { __uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_ARRAY); __uint(key_size, sizeof(__u32)); __uint(value_size, sizeof(struct bpf_perf_event_value)); __uint(max_entries, 1); } fentry_readings SEC(".maps"); /* accumulated readings */ struct { __uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_ARRAY); __uint(key_size, sizeof(__u32)); __uint(value_size, sizeof(struct bpf_perf_event_value)); __uint(max_entries, 1); } accum_readings SEC(".maps"); const volatile __u32 num_cpu = 1; SEC("fentry/XXX") int BPF_PROG(fentry_XXX) { __u32 key = bpf_get_smp_processor_id(); struct bpf_perf_event_value *ptr; __u32 zero = 0; long err; /* look up before reading, to reduce error */ ptr = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&fentry_readings, &zero); if (!ptr) return 0; err = bpf_perf_event_read_value(&events, key, ptr, sizeof(*ptr)); if (err) return 0; return 0; } static inline void fexit_update_maps(struct bpf_perf_event_value *after) { struct bpf_perf_event_value *before, diff, *accum; __u32 zero = 0; before = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&fentry_readings, &zero); /* only account samples with a valid fentry_reading */ if (before && before->counter) { struct bpf_perf_event_value *accum; diff.counter = after->counter - before->counter; diff.enabled = after->enabled - before->enabled; diff.running = after->running - before->running; accum = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&accum_readings, &zero); if (accum) { accum->counter += diff.counter; accum->enabled += diff.enabled; accum->running += diff.running; } } } SEC("fexit/XXX") int BPF_PROG(fexit_XXX) { struct bpf_perf_event_value reading; __u32 cpu = bpf_get_smp_processor_id(); __u32 one = 1, zero = 0; int err; /* read all events before updating the maps, to reduce error */ err = bpf_perf_event_read_value(&events, cpu, &reading, sizeof(reading)); if (err) return 0; fexit_update_maps(&reading); return 0; } char LICENSE[] SEC("license") = "Dual BSD/GPL"; [acme@five perf]$
