H A Drun_bench_trigger.shdiff 7df4e597ea2cfd677e65730948153d5544986a10 Tue Mar 26 17:21:47 CET 2024 Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org> 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).

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.
