This patch writes 'node-&gt;ref = 1' only if node-&gt;ref is 0.
The number of lookups/s for a ~1M entries LRU map increased by
~30% (260097 to 343313).

Other writes on 'node-&gt;ref = 0' is not changed.  In those cases, the
same cache line has to be changed anyway.

First column: Size of the LRU hash
Second column: Number of lookups/s

Before:
&gt; echo "$((2**20+1)): $(./map_perf_test 1024 1 $((2**20+1)) 10000000 | awk '{print $3}')"
1048577: 260097

After:

Inline the lru map lookup to save the cost in making calls to
bpf_map_lookup_elem() and htab_lru_map_lookup_elem().

Different LRU hash size is tested.  The benefit diminishes when
the cache miss starts to dominate in the bigger LRU hash.
Considering the change is simple, it is still worth to optimize.

<title>bpf: fix map value attribute for hash of maps</title>

<id>cd36c3a21a400cac9c457394b9adf94e0027c136</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, iproute2's BPF ELF loader works fine with array of maps
when retrieving the fd from a pinned node and doing a selfcheck
against the provided map attributes from the object file, but we
fail to do the same for hash of maps and thus refuse to get the
map from pinned node.

Reason is that when allocating hash of maps, fd_htab_map_alloc() will
set the value size to sizeof(void *), and any user space map creation
requests are forced to set 4 bytes as value size. Thus, selfcheck
will complain about exposed 8 bytes on 64 bit archs vs. 4 bytes from
object file as value size. Contract is that fdinfo or BPF_MAP_GET_FD_BY_ID
returns the value size used to create the map.

Fix it by handling it the same way as we do for array of maps, which
means that we leave value size at 4 bytes and in the allocation phase
round up value size to 8 bytes. alloc_htab_elem() needs an adjustment
in order to copy rounded up 8 bytes due to bpf_fd_htab_map_update_elem()
calling into htab_map_update_elem() with the pointer of the map
pointer as value. Unlike array of maps where we just xchg(), we're
using the generic htab_map_update_elem() callback also used from helper
calls, which published the key/value already on return, so we need
to ensure to memcpy() the right size.

<title>bpf: Allow selecting numa node during map creation</title>

<id>96eabe7a40aa17e613cf3db2c742ee8b1fc764d0</id>

The current map creation API does not allow to provide the numa-node
preference.  The memory usually comes from where the map-creation-process
is running.  The performance is not ideal if the bpf_prog is known to
always run in a numa node different from the map-creation-process.

One of the use case is sharding on CPU to different LRU maps (i.e.
an array of LRU maps).  Here is the test result of map_perf_test on
the INNER_LRU_HASH_PREALLOC test if we force the lru map used by
CPU0 to be allocated from a remote numa node:

[ The machine has 20 cores. CPU0-9 at node 0. CPU10-19 at node 1 ]

&gt;# taskset -c 10 ./map_perf_test 512 8 1260000 8000000
5:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1628380 events per sec

7:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1613305 events per sec
0:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1239150 events per sec  #&lt;&lt;&lt;

After specifying numa node:
&gt;# taskset -c 10 ./map_perf_test 512 8 1260000 8000000
5:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1629627 events per sec

4:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1612651 events per sec
7:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1609337 events per sec
0:inner_lru_hash_map_perf pre-alloc 1619340 events per sec #&lt;&lt;&lt;

This patch adds one field, numa_node, to the bpf_attr.  Since numa node 0
is a valid node, a new flag BPF_F_NUMA_NODE is also added.  The numa_node
field is honored if and only if the BPF_F_NUMA_NODE flag is set.

Numa node selection is not supported for percpu map.

This patch does not change all the kmalloc.  F.e.
'htab = kzalloc()' is not changed since the object
is small enough to stay in the cache.

This patch allows userspace to do BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM on
BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY,
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY_OF_MAPS and
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS.

The lookup returns a prog-id or map-id to the userspace.
The userspace can then use the BPF_PROG_GET_FD_BY_ID
or BPF_MAP_GET_FD_BY_ID to get a fd.

When iterating through a map, we need to find a key that does not exist
in the map so map_get_next_key will give us the first key of the map.
This often requires a lot of guessing in production systems.

This patch makes map_get_next_key return the first key when the key
pointer in the parameter is NULL.

When iterating through a map, we need to find a key that does not exist
in the map so map_get_next_key will give us the first key of the map.
This often requires a lot of guessing in production systems.

This patch makes map_get_next_key return the first key when the key
pointer in the parameter is NULL.

There's no need to have struct bpf_map_type_list since
it just contains a list_head, the type, and the ops
pointer. Since the types are densely packed and not
actually dynamically registered, it's much easier and
smaller to have an array of type-&gt;ops pointer. Also
initialize this array statically to remove code needed
to initialize it.

In order to save duplicating the list, move it to the
types header file added by the previous patch and
include it in the same fashion.

<title>bpf: Add hash of maps support</title>

<id>bcc6b1b7ebf857a9fe56202e2be3361131588c15</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds hash of maps support (hashmap-&gt;bpf_map).
BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS is added.

A map-in-map contains a pointer to another map and lets call
this pointer 'inner_map_ptr'.

Notes on deleting inner_map_ptr from a hash map:

1. For BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC map-in-map, when deleting
   an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem itself will go through
   a rcu grace period and the inner_map_ptr resides
   in the htab_elem.

2. For pre-allocated htab_elem (!BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC),
   when deleting an inner_map_ptr, the htab_elem may
   get reused immediately.  This situation is similar
   to the existing prealloc-ated use cases.

   However, the bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() calls bpf_map_put() which calls
   inner_map-&gt;ops-&gt;map_free(inner_map) which will go
   through a rcu grace period (i.e. all bpf_map's map_free
   currently goes through a rcu grace period).  Hence,
   the inner_map_ptr is still safe for the rcu reader side.

This patch also includes BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH_OF_MAPS to the
check_map_prealloc() in the verifier.  preallocation is a
must for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT.  Hence, even we don't expect
heavy updates to map-in-map, enforcing BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC for map-in-map
is impossible without disallowing BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT from using
map-in-map first.
