bpftool: Use appropriate permissions for map access

2025-06-20T18:13:03+00:00

Modify several functions in tools/bpf/bpftool/common.c to allow specification of requested access for file descriptors, such as read-only access. Update bpftool to request only read access for maps when write access is not required. This fixes errors when reading from maps that are protected from modification via security_bpf_map.

bpftool: Mount bpffs on provided dir instead of parent dir

2024-04-04T22:37:12+00:00

When pinning programs/objects under PATH (eg: during "bpftool prog loadall") the bpffs is mounted on the parent dir of PATH in the following situations: - the given dir exists but it is not bpffs. - the given dir doesn't exist and the parent dir is not bpffs. Mounting on the parent dir can also have the unintentional side- effect of hiding other files located under the parent dir. If the given dir exists but is not bpffs, then the bpffs should be mounted on the given dir and not its parent dir. Similarly, if the given dir doesn't exist and its parent dir is not bpffs, then the given dir should be created and the bpffs should be mounted on this new dir.

This is done to improve maintainability and readability. Changes since v2: - mount_bpffs_for_pin: rename to "create_and_mount_bpffs_dir". - mount_bpffs_given_file: rename to "mount_bpffs_given_file". - create_and_mount_bpffs_dir: - introduce "dir_exists" boolean. - remove new dir if "mnt_fs" fails. - improve error handling and error messages. Changes since v3: - Rectify function name. - Improve error messages and formatting. - mount_bpffs_for_file: - Check if dir exists before block_mount check. Changes since v4: - Use strdup instead of strcpy. - create_and_mount_bpffs_dir: - Use S_IRWXU instead of 0700. - Improve error handling and formatting.

bpftool: Support bpffs mountpoint as pin path for prog loadall

2023-05-17T13:58:18+00:00

Currently, when using prog loadall and the pin path is a bpffs mountpoint, bpffs will be repeatedly mounted to the parent directory of the bpffs mountpoint path. For example, a `bpftool prog loadall test.o /sys/fs/bpf` will trigger this.

bpftool: clean-up usage of libbpf_get_error()

2022-11-21T00:17:46+00:00

bpftool is now totally compliant with libbpf 1.0 mode and is not expected to be compiled with pre-1.0, let's clean-up the usage of libbpf_get_error(). The changes stay aligned with returned errors always negative. - In tools/bpf/bpftool/btf.c This fixes an uninitialized local variable `err` in function do_dump() because it may now be returned without having been set. - This also removes the checks on NULL pointers before calling btf__free() because that function already does the check.

bpftool: Define _GNU_SOURCE only once

2022-10-25T17:11:56+00:00

_GNU_SOURCE is defined in several source files for bpftool, but only one of them takes the precaution of checking whether the value is already defined. Add #ifndef for other occurrences too. This is in preparation for the support of disassembling JIT-ed programs with LLVM, with $(llvm-config --cflags) passing -D_GNU_SOURCE as a compilation argument.

bpftool: Use libbpf_get_error() to check error

2021-11-15T02:38:13+00:00

Currently, LIBBPF_STRICT_ALL mode is enabled by default for bpftool which means on error cases, some libbpf APIs would return NULL pointers. This makes IS_ERR check failed to detect such cases and result in segfault error. Use libbpf_get_error() instead like we do in libbpf itself.

tools: bpftool: Update and synchronise option list in doc and help msg

2021-07-30T22:40:27+00:00

All bpftool commands support the options for JSON output and debug from libbpf. In addition, some commands support additional options corresponding to specific use cases. The list of options described in the man pages for the different commands are not always accurate. The messages for interactive help are mostly limited to HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS, and are even less representative of the actual set of options supported for the commands. Let's update the lists: - HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS is modified to contain the "default" options (JSON and debug), and to be extensible (no ending curly bracket). - All commands use HELP_SPEC_OPTIONS in their help message, and then complete the list with their specific options. - The lists of options in the man pages are updated. - The formatting of the list for bpftool.rst is adjusted to match formatting for the other man pages. This is for consistency, and also because it will be helpful in a future patch to automatically check that the files are synchronised.

tools/bpftool: Add bpftool support for bpf map element iterator

2020-07-26T03:16:33+00:00

The optional parameter "map MAP" can be added to "bpftool iter" command to create a bpf iterator for map elements. For example, bpftool iter pin ./prog.o /sys/fs/bpf/p1 map id 333 For map element bpf iterator "map MAP" parameter is required. Otherwise, bpf link creation will return an error. Quentin Monnet kindly provided bash-completion implementation for new "map MAP" option.
