I think it would be way better to create a proper mechanism for that with permissions. tracepoints in the bpf core were introduced as introspection mechanism for debugging. Right now we have better ways to do introspection with ids, queries, etc that bpftool is using, so original purpose of those tracepoints is gone and they actually rot. Let's not repurpose them into this map notify logic. I don't want tracepoints in the bpf core to become a stable interface it will stiffen the development. Well, I need it exactly for introspection and debugging, and just need the missing ID (as it was introduced later). Can we just drop the sample program then? I would likely not use the sample program, because it is missing the PID+comm-name. I agree with Jesper. We could drop this sample program but, do you think it is worth spending some time to create another sample program that shows the correct or suggested way to do it? I believe it would be useful to have a program for this since I found it difficult to understand how to do it with the current documentation/samples and it seems I was not the only one hitting this problem. For my use, I can simply use perf record to debug what programs are changing the map ID: perf record -e bpf:bpf_map_* -a --filter 'id == 2' This should be a fairly common troubleshooting step. I want to figure-out if anybody else (another userspace program) is changing my map. This can easily be caused by two userspace control programs running at the same time. Sysadm/scripts made a mistake and started two instances. Without the map ID, I cannot know what map perf is talking about... That's in fact the real use case for the first two patches. Since bpf tracepoints are still a rather common (and easy to use) troubleshooting and monitoring tool why shouldn't we "enhance" their support with the newly added map/prog IDs?
[bpf-next PATCH 3/3] bpf: add sample program to trace map events
This patch adds a sample program, called trace_map_events, that shows how to capture map events and filter them based on the map id. The program accepts a list of map IDs, via the -i command line option, and filters all the map events related to those IDs (i.e., map_create/update/lookup/next_key). If no IDs are specified, all map events are listed and no filtering is performed. Sample usage: # trace_map_events -i -i -i ...
