Anton Protopopov says: ==================== This series adds a mechanism for maps to populate per-cpu counters on insertions/deletions. The sum of these counters can be accessed by a new kfunc from map iterator and tracing programs. The following patches are present in the series: * Patch 1 adds a generic per-cpu counter to struct bpf_map * Patch 2 adds a new kfunc to access the sum of per-cpu counters * Patch 3 utilizes this mechanism for hash-based maps * Patch 4 extends the preloaded map iterator to dump the sum * Patch 5 adds a self-test for the change The reason for adding this functionality in our case (Cilium) is to get signals about how full some heavy-used maps are and what the actual dynamic profile of map capacity is. In the case of LRU maps this is impossible to get this information anyhow else. The original presentation can be found here [1]. [1] https://lpc.events/event/16/contributions/1368/ v4 -> v5: * don't pass useless empty opts when creating a link, pass NULL (Hou) * add a debug message (Hou) * make code more readable (Alexei) * remove the selftest which only checked that elem_count != NULL v3 -> v4: * fix selftests: * added test code for batch map operations * added a test for BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS (Hou) * added tests for BPF_MAP_TYPE_LRU* with BPF_F_NO_COMMON_LRU (Hou) * map_info was called multiple times unnecessarily (Hou) * small fixes + some memory leaks (Hou) * fixed wrong error path for freeing a non-prealloc map (Hou) * fixed counters for batch delete operations (Hou) v2 -> v3: - split commits to better represent update logic (Alexei) - remove filter from kfunc to allow all tracing programs (Alexei) - extend selftests (Alexei) v1 -> v2: - make the counters generic part of struct bpf_map (Alexei) - don't use map_info and /proc/self/fdinfo in favor of a kfunc (Alexei) ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

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.
