BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
- ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE`` was introduced in kernel version 5.2
|
|
|
|
``BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE`` is used to provide socket-local storage for BPF
|
|
programs. A map of type ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE`` declares the type of storage
|
|
to be provided and acts as the handle for accessing the socket-local
|
|
storage. The values for maps of type ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE`` are stored
|
|
locally with each socket instead of with the map. The kernel is responsible for
|
|
allocating storage for a socket when requested and for freeing the storage when
|
|
either the map or the socket is deleted.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
- The key type must be ``int`` and ``max_entries`` must be set to ``0``.
|
|
- The ``BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC`` flag must be used when creating a map for
|
|
socket-local storage.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
Kernel BPF
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
bpf_sk_storage_get()
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
void *bpf_sk_storage_get(struct bpf_map *map, void *sk, void *value, u64 flags)
|
|
|
|
Socket-local storage for ``map`` can be retrieved from socket ``sk`` using the
|
|
``bpf_sk_storage_get()`` helper. If the ``BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE``
|
|
flag is used then ``bpf_sk_storage_get()`` will create the storage for ``sk``
|
|
if it does not already exist. ``value`` can be used together with
|
|
``BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE`` to initialize the storage value, otherwise
|
|
it will be zero initialized. Returns a pointer to the storage on success, or
|
|
``NULL`` in case of failure.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
- ``sk`` is a kernel ``struct sock`` pointer for LSM or tracing programs.
|
|
- ``sk`` is a ``struct bpf_sock`` pointer for other program types.
|
|
|
|
bpf_sk_storage_delete()
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
long bpf_sk_storage_delete(struct bpf_map *map, void *sk)
|
|
|
|
Socket-local storage for ``map`` can be deleted from socket ``sk`` using the
|
|
``bpf_sk_storage_delete()`` helper. Returns ``0`` on success, or negative
|
|
error in case of failure.

----------

|
|
|
bpf_map_update_elem()
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
int bpf_map_update_elem(int map_fd, const void *key, const void *value, __u64 flags)
|
|
|
|
Socket-local storage for map ``map_fd`` can be added or updated locally to a
|
|
socket using the ``bpf_map_update_elem()`` libbpf function. The socket is
|
|
identified by a `socket` ``fd`` stored in the pointer ``key``. The pointer
|
|
``value`` has the data to be added or updated to the socket ``fd``. The type
|
|
and size of ``value`` should be the same as the value type of the map
|
|
definition.
|
|
|
|
The ``flags`` parameter can be used to control the update behaviour:
|
|
|
|
- ``BPF_ANY`` will create storage for `socket` ``fd`` or update existing storage.
|
|
- ``BPF_NOEXIST`` will create storage for `socket` ``fd`` only if it did not
|
|
already exist, otherwise the call will fail with ``-EEXIST``.
|
|
- ``BPF_EXIST`` will update existing storage for `socket` ``fd`` if it already
|
|
exists, otherwise the call will fail with ``-ENOENT``.
|
|
|
|
Returns ``0`` on success, or negative error in case of failure.
|
|
|
|
bpf_map_lookup_elem()
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
int bpf_map_lookup_elem(int map_fd, const void *key, void *value)
|
|
|
|
Socket-local storage for map ``map_fd`` can be retrieved from a socket using
|
|
the ``bpf_map_lookup_elem()`` libbpf function. The storage is retrieved from
|
|
the socket identified by a `socket` ``fd`` stored in the pointer
|
|
``key``. Returns ``0`` on success, or negative error in case of failure.
|
|
|
|
bpf_map_delete_elem()
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
int bpf_map_delete_elem(int map_fd, const void *key)
|
|
|
|
Socket-local storage for map ``map_fd`` can be deleted from a socket using the
|
|
``bpf_map_delete_elem()`` libbpf function. The storage is deleted from the
|
|
socket identified by a `socket` ``fd`` stored in the pointer ``key``. Returns
|
|
``0`` on success, or negative error in case of failure.

Examples
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Kernel BPF
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
This snippet shows how to declare socket-local storage in a BPF program:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
struct {
|
|
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_SK_STORAGE);
|
|
__uint(map_flags, BPF_F_NO_PREALLOC);
|
|
__type(key, int);
|
|
__type(value, struct my_storage);
|
|
} socket_storage SEC(".maps");
|
|
|
|
This snippet shows how to retrieve socket-local storage in a BPF program:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
SEC("sockops")
|
|
int _sockops(struct bpf_sock_ops *ctx)
|
|
{
|
|
struct my_storage *storage;
|
|
struct bpf_sock *sk;
|
|
|
|
sk = ctx->sk;
|
|
if (!sk)
|
|
return 1;
|
|
|
|
storage = bpf_sk_storage_get(&socket_storage, sk, 0,
|
|
BPF_LOCAL_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE);
|
|
if (!storage)
|
|
return 1;
|
|
|
|
/* Use 'storage' here */
|
|
|
|
return 1;
|
|
}
|
|
|
