v3 cover net: Add support for XDP in egress path

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

This series adds support for XDP in the egress path by introducing a new XDP attachment type, BPF_XDP_EGRESS, and adding a UAPI to if_link.h for attaching the program to a netdevice and reporting the program. bpf programs can be run on all packets in the Tx path - skbs or redirected xdp frames. The intent is to emulate the current RX path for XDP as much as possible to maintain consistency and symmetry in the 2 paths with their APIs.

This is a missing primitive for XDP allowing solutions to build small, targeted programs properly distributed in the networking path allowing, for example, an egress firewall/ACL/traffic verification or packet manipulation and encapping an entire ethernet frame whether it is locally generated traffic, forwarded via the slow path (ie., full stack processing) or xdp redirected frames.

Nothing about running a program in the Tx path requires driver specific resources like the Rx path has. Thus, programs can be run in core code and attached to the net_device struct similar to skb mode. The egress attach is done using the new XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE flag, and is reported by the kernel using the XDP_ATTACHED_EGRESS_CORE attach flag with IFLA_XDP_EGRESS_PROG_ID making the api similar to existing APIs for XDP.

The locations chosen to run the egress program - __netdev_start_xmit before the call to ndo_start_xmit and bq_xmit_all before invoking ndo_xdp_xmit - allow follow on patch sets to handle tx queueing and setting the queue index if multi-queue with consistency in handling both packet formats.

A few of the patches trace back to work done on offloading programs from a VM by Jason Wang and Prashant Bole.

v3:
- removed IFLA_XDP_EGRESS and dropped back to XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE as the uapi to specify the attach. This caused the ordering of the patches to change with the uapi now introduced in the second patch and 2 refactoring patches are dropped. Samples and test programs updated to use the new API.

v2:
- changed rx checks in xdp_is_valid_access to any expected_attach_type
- add xdp_egress argument to bpftool prog rst document
- do not allow IFLA_XDP and IFLA_XDP_EGRESS in the same config. There is no way to rollback IFLA_XDP if IFLA_XDP_EGRESS fails.
- comments from Andrii on libbpf

v1:
- add selftests
- flip the order of xdp generic patches as requested by Toke
- fixed the count arg to do_xdp_egress_frame - Toke
- remove meta data invalidate in __xdp_egress_frame - Toke
- fixed data_hard_start in __xdp_egress_frame - Jesper
- refactored convert_to_xdp_frame to reuse buf to frame code - Jesper
- added missed refactoring patch when generating patch set

RFC v5:
- updated cover letter
- moved running of ebpf program to from ndo_{start,xdp}_xmit to core code. Dropped all tun and vhost related changes.
- added egress support to bpftool

RFC v4:
- updated cover letter
- patches related to code movement between tuntap, headers and vhost are dropped; previous RFC ran the XDP program in vhost context vs this set which runs them before queueing to vhost. As a part of this moved invocation of egress program to tun_net_xmit and tun_xdp_xmit.
- renamed do_xdp_generic to do_xdp_generic_rx to emphasize is called in the Rx path; added rx argument to do_xdp_generic_core since it is used for both directions and needs to know which queue values to set in xdp_buff

RFC v3:
- reworked the patches - splitting patch 1 from RFC v2 into 3, combining patch 2 from RFC v2 into the first 3, combining patches 6 and 7 from RFC v2 into 1 since both did a trivial rename and export. Reordered the patches such that kernel changes are first followed by libbpf and an enhancement to a sample.

- moved small xdp related helper functions from tun.c to tun.h to make tun_ptr_free usable from the tap code. This is needed to handle the case of tap builtin and tun built as a module.

- pkt_ptrs added to struct tun_file and passed to tun_consume_packets rather than declaring pkts as an array on the stack.

RFC v2:
- New XDP attachment type: Jesper, Toke and Alexei discussed whether to introduce a new program type. Since this set adds a way to attach regular XDP program to the tx path, as per Alexei's suggestion, a new attachment type BPF_XDP_EGRESS is introduced.

- libbpf API changes:
Alexei had suggested _opts() style of API extension. Considering it two new libbpf APIs are introduced which are equivalent to existing APIs. New ones can be extended easily. Please see individual patches for details. xdp1 sample program is modified to use new APIs.

- tun: Some patches from previous set are removed as they are irrelevant in this series. They will in introduced later.

PATCH v3 2/15 net: uapi for XDP programs in the egress path

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Running programs in the egress path, on skbs or xdp_frames, does not require driver specific resources like Rx path. Accordingly, the programs can be run in core code, so add xdp_egress_prog to net_device to hold a reference to an attached program.

For UAPI, add XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE to specify attach is at egress, add a new attach flag, XDP_ATTACHED_EGRESS_CORE, for reporting the attach point at the core, egress level and add IFLA_XDP_EGRESS_PROG_ID for reporting the program id. Add rtnl_xdp_prog_egress to fill in link message with egress data.

PATCH v3 3/15 net: Add XDP setup and query commands for Tx programs

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Add new netdev commands, XDP_SETUP_PROG_EGRESS and XDP_QUERY_PROG_EGRESS, to query and setup egress programs.

Update dev_change_xdp_fd and dev_xdp_install to check for egress mode via XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE in the flags. If egress bool is set, then use XDP_SETUP_PROG_EGRESS in dev_xdp_install and XDP_QUERY_PROG_EGRESS in dev_change_xdp_fd.

PATCH v3 4/15 net: Add BPF_XDP_EGRESS as a bpf_attach_type

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Add new bpf_attach_type, BPF_XDP_EGRESS, for BPF programs attached at the XDP layer, but the egress path.

Since egress path will not have ingress_ifindex and rx_queue_index set, update xdp_is_valid_access to block access to these entries in the xdp context when a program is attached with expected_attach_type set.

Update dev_change_xdp_fd to verify expected_attach_type for a program is BPF_XDP_EGRESS if egress argument is set.

The next patch adds support for the egress ifindex.

PATCH v3 5/15 xdp: Add xdp_txq_info to xdp_buff

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Add xdp_txq_info as the Tx counterpart to xdp_rxq_info. At the moment only the device is added. Other fields (queue_index) can be added as use cases arise.

From a UAPI perspective, add egress_ifindex to xdp context.

Update the verifier to reject accesses to egress_ifindex by rx programs.

PATCH v3 7/15 net: rename netif_receive_generic_xdp to do_generic_xdp_core

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

In skb generic path, we need a way to run XDP program on skb but to have customized handling of XDP actions. netif_receive_generic_xdp will be more helpful in such cases than do_xdp_generic.

This patch prepares netif_receive_generic_xdp() to be used as general purpose function for running xdp programs on skbs by renaming it to do_xdp_generic_core, moving skb_is_redirected and rxq settings as well as XDP return code checks to the callers.

This allows this core function to be used from both Rx and Tx paths with rxq and txq set based on context.

PATCH v3 8/15 net: set XDP egress program on netdevice

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

This patch handles the plumbing for installing an XDP egress program on a net_device by handling XDP_SETUP_PROG_EGRESS and XDP_QUERY_PROG_EGRESS in generic_xdp_install handler. New static key is added to signal when an egress program has been installed.

Update dev_xdp_uninstall to remove egress programs.

PATCH v3 9/15 net: Support xdp in the Tx path for packets as an skb

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Add support to run Tx path program on packets about to hit the ndo_start_xmit function for a device. Only XDP_DROP and XDP_PASS are supported now. Conceptually, XDP_REDIRECT for this path can work the same as it does for the Rx path, but that support is left for a follow on series.

If an xdp_frame is dropped by the program, it is removed from the xdp_frames array with subsequent entries moved up.

PATCH v3 11/15 libbpf: Add egress XDP support

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

New section name hint, xdp_egress, is added to set expected attach type at program load. Programs can use xdp_egress as the prefix in the SEC statement to load the program with the BPF_XDP_EGRESS attach type set.

egress_prog_id is added to xdp_link_info to report the program id.

PATCH v3 12/15 bpftool: Add support for XDP egress

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

Add xdp_egress as a program type since it requires a new attach type. This follows suit with other program type + attach type combintations and leverages the SEC name in libbpf.

Add NET_ATTACH_TYPE_XDP_EGRESS and update attach_type_strings to allow a user to specify 'xdp_egress' as the attach or detach point.

Update do_attach_detach_xdp to set XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE if egress is selected.

Update do_xdp_dump_one to show egress program ids.

Update the documentation and help output.

This is consistent with test_xdp_veth.sh so it is probably ok for this series but I think it would be nice to go back and make these fail on errors. Or at least fail on bpffs mount. Seems other tests fail on bpffs mount failures so would be OK I think.

Otherwise LGTM.

Also would be nice to have a test case for the xdp redirect into tx case. I think this is only going to test the skb path?

I have tests for the xdp_frame case, but it requires multiple nodes - not namespaces. Multiple node tests no longer fall into the 'selftest' category. I am not aware of any way to do XDP_REDIRECT testing within a single node; general shortcoming with all xdp_frame specific tests.

2. verify ability to load, attach, and detach xdp egress to a device.

PATCH v3 15/15 samples/bpf: add XDP egress support to xdp1

In reply to David Ahern

From: David Ahern <[email protected]>

xdp1 and xdp2 now accept -E flag to set XDP program in the egress path.

This series adds support for XDP in the egress path by introducing a new XDP attachment type, BPF_XDP_EGRESS

Can't find anything more to complain about :)

Ran a quick performance test: On a test using xdp_redirect_map from samples/bpf, which gets 8.15 Mpps normally, loading an XDP egress program on the target interface drops performance to 7.55 Mpps. So ~600k pps, or ~9.5ns overhead for the egress program. So other than the nit in the bpftool patch, please consider the series:

This series adds support for XDP in the egress path by introducing a new XDP attachment type, BPF_XDP_EGRESS, and adding a UAPI to if_link.h for attaching the program to a netdevice and reporting the program. bpf programs can be run on all packets in the Tx path - skbs or redirected xdp frames. The intent is to emulate the current RX path for XDP as much as possible to maintain consistency and symmetry in the 2 paths with their APIs.

Quoted 6 lines

This is a missing primitive for XDP allowing solutions to build small, targeted programs properly distributed in the networking path allowing, for example, an egress firewall/ACL/traffic verification or packet manipulation and encapping an entire ethernet frame whether it is locally generated traffic, forwarded via the slow path (ie., full stack processing) or xdp redirected frames.

I'm still a bit unsure why the BPF programs would not push logic into ingress XDP program + skb egress. Is there a case where that does not work or is it mostly about ease of use for some use case?

Do we have overhead performance numbers? I'm wondering how close the redirect case with these TX hooks are vs redirect without TX hooks. The main reason I ask is if it slows performance down by more than say 5% (sort of made up number, but point is some N%) then I don't think we would recommend using it.

Quoted 9 lines

Nothing about running a program in the Tx path requires driver specific resources like the Rx path has. Thus, programs can be run in core code and attached to the net_device struct similar to skb mode. The egress attach is done using the new XDP_FLAGS_EGRESS_MODE flag, and is reported by the kernel using the XDP_ATTACHED_EGRESS_CORE attach flag with IFLA_XDP_EGRESS_PROG_ID making the api similar to existing APIs for XDP.

Quoted 8 lines

The locations chosen to run the egress program - __netdev_start_xmit before the call to ndo_start_xmit and bq_xmit_all before invoking ndo_xdp_xmit - allow follow on patch sets to handle tx queueing and setting the queue index if multi-queue with consistency in handling both packet formats.

A few of the patches trace back to work done on offloading programs from a VM by Jason Wang and Prashant Bole.

The idea for offloading VM programs would be to take a BPF program from the VM somehow out of band or over mgmt interface and load it into the egress hook of virtio?

Code LGTM other than a couple suggestions on the test side but I'm missing something on the use case picture.

Thanks,
John

host and VMs.

Some packets take the XDP fast path (known unicast traffic redirected from host ingress to VM tap or from one VM tap to another VM tap); some packets take the slow path. Regardless of path, each VM can have its own per-VM data (e.g., ingress ACL). With XDP egress programs getting both packet formats, that per-VM ACL config only needs to be in 1 place - egress program map.

The main reason I ask is if it slows performance down by more than say 5% (sort of made up number, but point is some N%) then I don't think we would recommend using it.

Toke ran some tests:
"On a test using xdp_redirect_map from samples/bpf, which gets 8.15 Mpps normally, loading an XDP egress program on the target interface drops performance to 7.55 Mpps. So ~600k pps, or ~9.5ns overhead for the egress program."

###

If XDP redirect gives a 2-4x speedup over skb path but the existence of an egress program takes away ~8-10% of that speedup, it is still an overall huge win in performance with a much simpler design, architecture and lifecycle management of per-VM data.

The latest thought is for programs to run in the vhost thread. Offloaded programs for a guest should run in process context where the cycles can be associated with the VM.
