Daniel T. Lee 58e975d014 samples/bpf: replace broken overhead microbenchmark with fib_table_lookup
The test_overhead bpf program is designed to compare performance
between tracepoint and kprobe. Initially it used task_rename and
urandom_read tracepoint.

However, commit 14c174633f ("random: remove unused tracepoints")
removed urandom_read tracepoint, and for this reason the test_overhead
got broken.

This commit introduces new microbenchmark using fib_table_lookup.
This microbenchmark sends UDP packets to localhost in order to invoke
fib_table_lookup.

In a nutshell:
fd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_UDP);
addr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(DUMMY_IP);
addr.sin_port = htons(DUMMY_PORT);
for() {
    sendto(fd, buf, strlen(buf), 0,
            (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
}

on 4 cpus in parallel:
                                            lookup per sec
base (no tracepoints, no kprobes)               381k
with kprobe at fib_table_lookup()               325k
with tracepoint at fib:fib_table_lookup         330k
with raw_tracepoint at fib:fib_table_lookup     365k

Fixes: 14c174633f ("random: remove unused tracepoints")

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.
