bpf: Allow bpf_skb_event_output for a few prog types
Software event output is only enabled by a few prog types right now (TC, LWT out, XDP, sockops). Many other skb based prog types need bpf_skb_event_output to produce software event. Added socket_filter, cg_skb, sk_skb prog types to generate sw event. Test bpf code is generated from code snippet: struct TMP { uint64_t tmp; } tt; tt.tmp = 5; bpf_perf_event_output(skb, &connection_tracking_event_map, 0, &tt, sizeof(tt)); return 1; the bpf assembly from llvm is: 0: b7 02 00 00 05 00 00 00 r2 = 5 1: 7b 2a f8 ff 00 00 00 00 *(u64 *)(r10 - 8) = r2 2: bf a4 00 00 00 00 00 00 r4 = r10 3: 07 04 00 00 f8 ff ff ff r4 += -8 4: 18 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 r2 = 0ll 6: b7 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 r3 = 0 7: b7 05 00 00 08 00 00 00 r5 = 8 8: 85 00 00 00 19 00 00 00 call 25 9: b7 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 r0 = 1 10: 95 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 exit Signed-off-by: Allan Zhang <allanzhang@google.com> Acked-by: Song Liu <songliubraving@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
