<id>573b3aa6940661dc50c383213d428c27df78be7c</id>
<content type='text'>
I hit the following problem when I tried to use bpftool
to dump a percpu array.

  $ sudo ./bpftool map show
  61: percpu_array  name stub  flags 0x0
          key 4B  value 4B  max_entries 1  memlock 4096B
  ...
  $ sudo ./bpftool map dump id 61
  bpftool: malloc.c:2406: sysmalloc: Assertion
  `(old_top == initial_top (av) &amp;&amp; old_size == 0) || \
   ((unsigned long) (old_size) &gt;= MINSIZE &amp;&amp; \
   prev_inuse (old_top) &amp;&amp; \
   ((unsigned long) old_end &amp; (pagesize - 1)) == 0)'
  failed.
  Aborted

Further debugging revealed that this is due to
miscommunication between bpftool and kernel.
For example, for the above percpu_array with value size of 4B.
The map info returned to user space has value size of 4B.

In bpftool, the values array for lookup is allocated like:
   info-&gt;value_size * get_possible_cpus() = 4 * get_possible_cpus()
In kernel (kernel/bpf/syscall.c), the values array size is
rounded up to multiple of 8.
   round_up(map-&gt;value_size, 8) * num_possible_cpus()
   = 8 * num_possible_cpus()
So when kernel copies the values to user buffer, the kernel will
overwrite beyond user buffer boundary.

This patch fixed the issue by allocating and stepping through
percpu map value array properly in bpftool.

Users of BPF sooner or later discover perf_event_output() helpers
and BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY.  Dumping this array type is
not possible, however, we can add simple reading of perf events.
Create a new event_pipe subcommand for maps, this sub command
will only work with BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY maps.

Parts of the code from samples/bpf/trace_output_user.c.

Instead of spelling [hex] BYTES everywhere use DATA as keyword
for generalized value.  This will help us keep the messages
concise when longer command are added in the future.  It will
also be useful once BTF support comes.  We will only have to
change the definition of DATA.

<title>tools: bpftool: make it easier to feed hex bytes to bpftool</title>

<id>0c90f2243ec67eeacf9624ae52ab43c734fe0e93</id>
<content type='text'>
bpftool uses hexadecimal values when it dumps map contents:

    # bpftool map dump id 1337
    key: ff 13 37 ff  value: a1 b2 c3 d4 ff ff ff ff
    Found 1 element

In order to lookup or update values with bpftool, the natural reflex is
then to copy and paste the values to the command line, and to try to run
something like:

    # bpftool map update id 1337 key ff 13 37 ff \
            value 00 00 00 00 00 00 1a 2b
    Error: error parsing byte: ff

bpftool complains, because it uses strtoul() with a 0 base to parse the
bytes, and that without a "0x" prefix, the bytes are considered as
decimal values (or even octal if they start with "0").

To feed hexadecimal values instead, one needs to add "0x" prefixes
everywhere necessary:

    # bpftool map update id 1337 key 0xff 0x13 0x37 0xff \
            value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0x1a 0x2b

To make it easier to use hexadecimal values, add an optional "hex"
keyword to put after "key" or "value" to tell bpftool to consider the
digits as hexadecimal. We can now do:

    # bpftool map update id 1337 key hex ff 13 37 ff \
            value hex 0 0 0 0 0 0 1a 2b

Without the "hex" keyword, the bytes are still parsed according to
normal integer notation (decimal if no prefix, or hexadecimal or octal
if "0x" or "0" prefix is used, respectively).

The patch also add related documentation and bash completion for the
"hex" keyword.
