selftests/bpf: add batched tp/raw_tp/fmodret tests
Utilize bpf_modify_return_test_tp() kfunc to have a fast way to trigger
tp/raw_tp/fmodret programs from another BPF program, which gives us
comparable batched benchmarks to (batched) kprobe/fentry benchmarks.
We don't switch kprobe/fentry batched benchmarks to this kfunc to make
bench tool usable on older kernels as well.

selftests/bpf: lazy-load trigger bench BPF programs
Instead of front-loading all possible benchmarking BPF programs for
trigger benchmarks, explicitly specify which BPF programs are used by
specific benchmark and load only it.
This allows to be more flexible in supporting older kernels, where some
program types might not be possible to load (e.g., those that rely on
newly added kfunc).

Remove "legacy" benchmarks triggered by syscalls in favor of newly added

Next patch will restore "feature parity" by adding back

selftests/bpf: add batched, mostly in-kernel BPF triggering benchmarks
Existing kprobe/fentry triggering benchmarks have 1-to-1 mapping between
one syscall execution and BPF program run. While we use a fast
get_pgid() syscall, syscall overhead can still be non-trivial.
This patch adds kprobe/fentry set of benchmarks significantly amortizing
the cost of syscall vs actual BPF triggering overhead. We do this by
employing BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN command to trigger "driver" raw_tp program
which does a tight parameterized loop calling cheap BPF helper
(bpf_get_numa_node_id()), to which kprobe/fentry programs are
attached for benchmarking.
This way 1 bpf() syscall causes N executions of BPF program being
benchmarked. N defaults to 100, but can be adjusted with
--trig-batch-iters CLI argument.
For comparison we also implement a new baseline program that instead of
triggering another BPF program just does N atomic per-CPU counter
increments, establishing the limit for all other types of program within
this batched benchmarking setup.
Taking the final set of benchmarks added in this patch set (including
tp/raw_tp/fmodret, added in later patch), and keeping for now "legacy"
syscall-driven benchmarks, we can capture all triggering benchmarks in
one place for comparison, before we remove the legacy ones (and rename
xxx-batched into just xxx).
$ benchs/run_bench_trigger.sh
usermode-count : 79.500 ± 0.024M/s
kernel-count : 49.949 ± 0.081M/s
syscall-count : 9.009 ± 0.007M/s

kprobe-multi-batch : 15.400 ± 0.007M/s
kretprobe-batch : 5.559 ± 0.011M/s
kretprobe-multi-batch: 5.861 ± 0.003M/s
fentry-legacy : 8.329 ± 0.004M/s
fexit-legacy : 6.239 ± 0.003M/s
fmodret-legacy : 6.595 ± 0.001M/s

tp-legacy : 6.382 ± 0.001M/s
kprobe-legacy : 5.528 ± 0.003M/s
kprobe-multi-legacy : 5.864 ± 0.022M/s
kretprobe-legacy : 3.081 ± 0.001M/s
kretprobe-multi-legacy: 3.193 ± 0.001M/s
Note how xxx-batch variants are measured with significantly higher
throughput, even though it's exactly the same in-kernel overhead. As
such, results can be compared only between benchmarks of the same kind
(syscall vs batched):
fentry-legacy : 8.329 ± 0.004M/s
fentry-batch : 31.002 ± 0.015M/s
kprobe-multi-legacy : 5.864 ± 0.022M/s
kprobe-multi-batch : 15.400 ± 0.007M/s
Note also that syscall-count is setting a theoretical limit for
syscall-triggered benchmarks, while kernel-count is setting similar
limits for batch variants. usermode-count is a happy and unachievable
case of user space counting without doing any syscalls, and is mostly
the measure of CPU speed for such a trivial benchmark.
As was mentioned, tp/raw_tp/fmodret require kernel-side kfunc to produce
similar benchmark, which we address in a separate patch.
Note that run_bench_trigger.sh allows to override a list of benchmarks
to run, which is very useful for performance work.

Some distros seem to enable the -fcf-protection=branch by default,
which breaks our setup on first instruction of uprobe trigger

Marking them with nocf_check attribute to skip that.
Ignoring unknown attribute warning in gcc for bench objects, because
nocf_check can be used only when -fcf-protection=branch is enabled,
otherwise we get a warning and break compilation.

It appears support for the gettid() wrapper is variable across glibc

selftests/bpf: scale benchmark counting by using per-CPU counters
When benchmarking with multiple threads (-pN, where N>1), we start
contending on single atomic counter that both BPF trigger benchmarks are
using, as well as "baseline" tests in user space (trig-base and
trig-uprobe-base benchmarks). As such, we start bottlenecking on
something completely irrelevant to benchmark at hand.
Scale counting up by using per-CPU counters on BPF side. On use space
side we do the next best thing: hash thread ID to approximate per-CPU
behavior. It seems to work quite well in practice.
To demonstrate the difference, I ran three benchmarks with 1, 2, 4, 8,
16, and 32 threads:
- trig-uprobe-base (no syscalls, pure tight counting loop in user-space);
- trig-base (get_pgid() syscall, atomic counter in user-space);
- trig-fentry (syscall to trigger fentry program, atomic uncontended per-CPU
counter on BPF side).
Command used:
for b in uprobe-base base fentry; do \
for p in 1 2 4 8 16 32; do \
printf "%-11s %2d: %s\n" $b $p \
"$(sudo ./bench -w2 -d5 -a -p$p trig-$b | tail -n1 | cut -d'(' -f1 | cut -d' ' -f3-)"; \
done; \
done
Before these changes, aggregate throughput across all threads doesn't
scale well with number of threads, it actually even falls sharply for
uprobe-base due to a very high contention:
uprobe-base 1: 138.998 ± 0.650M/s
uprobe-base 2: 70.526 ± 1.147M/s
uprobe-base 4: 63.114 ± 0.302M/s
uprobe-base 8: 54.177 ± 0.138M/s
uprobe-base 16: 45.439 ± 0.057M/s
uprobe-base 32: 37.163 ± 0.242M/s
base 1: 16.940 ± 0.182M/s
base 2: 19.231 ± 0.105M/s
base 4: 21.479 ± 0.038M/s
base 8: 23.030 ± 0.037M/s
base 16: 22.034 ± 0.004M/s
base 32: 18.152 ± 0.013M/s
fentry 1: 14.794 ± 0.054M/s
fentry 2: 17.341 ± 0.055M/s
fentry 4: 23.792 ± 0.024M/s
fentry 8: 21.557 ± 0.047M/s
fentry 16: 21.121 ± 0.004M/s
fentry 32: 17.067 ± 0.023M/s
After these changes, we see almost perfect linear scaling, as expected.
The sub-linear scaling when going from 8 to 16 threads is interesting
and consistent on my test machine, but I haven't investigated what is
causing it this peculiar slowdown (across all benchmarks, could be due
to hyperthreading effects, not sure).
uprobe-base 1: 139.980 ± 0.648M/s
