Subject: [PATCH cgroup/for-5.20] cgroup: Replace cgroup->ancestor_ids[] with ->ancestors[]

Every cgroup knows all its ancestors through its ->ancestor_ids[]. While all
the existing users only need the IDs, there's no advantage to remembering
the IDs instead of the pointers directly. Let's replace
cgroup->ancestor_ids[] with ->ancestors[] so that it's easy to access non-ID
ancestor fields.

This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences.

Namhyung, I think the change in bperf_cgroup is correct but couldn't figure
out how to test it (normal perf build wouldn't compile it). Can you please
see whether it's correct?

Thanks.

Looks ok to me. For the perf part,

Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]>

Note that you need to pass BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 when you build perf
to enable BPF stuff. IIRC Arnaldo will make it default at some point.

Thanks,
Namhyung

I should have changed the type to struct cgroup * but that's the space into
which cgroup_root->cgrp->ancestors[] stretch into.

Every cgroup knows all its ancestors through its ->ancestor_ids[]. There's

this makes the array useless for finding an actual ancestor cgroup forcing
cgroup_ancestor() to iteratively walk up the hierarchy instead. Let's
replace cgroup->ancestor_ids[] with ->ancestors[] and remove the walking-up

While at it, improve comments around cgroup_root->cgrp_ancestor_storage.

This patch shouldn't cause user-visible behavior differences.

v2: Update cgroup_ancestor() to use ->ancestors[].

v3: cgroup_root->cgrp_ancestor_storage's type is updated to match
cgroup->ancestors[]. Better comments.

I've realized that perf stat change needs backward compatibility.
Will send a fix soon.

Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: Support old kernels for bperf cgroup counting

The recent change in the cgroup will break the backward compatiblity in
the BPF program. It should support both old and new kernels using BPF
CO-RE technique.

Like the task_struct->__state handling in the offcpu analysis, we can
check the field name in the cgroup struct.

Arnaldo, I think this should go through the cgroup tree since it depends
on the earlier change there. I don't think it'd conflict with other
perf changes but please let me know if you see any trouble, thanks!

FWIW, looks fine to me and I'd be happy to route this through the cgroup
tree once it gets acked.

have you checked generated BPF code for this ancestors[level] access?
I'd expect CO-RE relocation for finding ancestors offset and then just
normal + level * 8 arithmetic, but would be nice to confirm. Apart
from this, looks good to me:

Thanks for your review!

How can I check the generated code? Do you have something works with
skeletons or do I have to save the BPF object somehow during the build?

skeleton is generated from ELF BPF object file. You can do
llvm-objdump -d <obj.bpf.o> to see instructions. Unfortunately you
can't see BPF CO-RE relocations this way, you'd have to use something
like my custom tool ([0]).

But anyways, I checked locally similar code pattern and I think it's
all good from BPF CO-RE perspective. I see appropriate relocations in
all the necessary places. So this should work.

Looks like it's acked enough but the patch doesn't apply anymore. Namhyung,
can you please refresh the patch? I'll route this through
cgroup/for-6.1-fixes unless somebody objects.

Sorry about the conflict. There was another change to get the perf
cgroup subsys id properly. Will send v2 soon.

The recent change in the cgroup will break the backward compatiblity in
the BPF program. It should support both old and new kernels using BPF
CO-RE technique.

Like the task_struct->__state handling in the offcpu analysis, we can
check the field name in the cgroup struct.

Yeah, applying just Namhyung's v2 patch gets perf back building, I'll
keep it there while processing the other patches so that I can test them
all together.

Hey, I noticed that the perf build is broken for the
tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bperf_cgroup.bpf.c skell, so I tried using b4
on this Namhyung patch, it ended up getting a newer version, by Tejun,
that mixes up kernel code and tooling, which, when I tried to apply
upstream didn't work.

Please try not to mix up kernel and tools/ changes in the same patch to
avoid these issues.

Also when changing tools/perf, please CC me.

I'm now back trying to apply v2 of this patch to see if it fixes my
build.

That mixes kernel and tools bits and touches
tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bperf_cgroup.bpf.c, hence my request to add me
to the CC list for patches touching tools/perf/.

My assumption that it was a new patch was because b4 somehow got to
v3_20220729_tj_cgroup_replace_cgroup_ancestor_ids_with_ancestors,
which has v3 and touches the tools cgroup bpf skel.

So it seems b4 is confused somehow.

Hope this clarifies.
