2018-11-10bpftool: support loading flow dissectorStanislav Fomichev
This commit adds support for loading/attaching/detaching flow dissector program. When `bpftool loadall` is called with a flow_dissector prog (i.e. when the 'type flow_dissector' argument is passed), we load and pin all programs. User is responsible to construct the jump table for the tail calls. The last argument of `bpftool attach` is made optional for this use case. Example: bpftool prog load tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpf_flow.o \ /sys/fs/bpf/flow type flow_dissector \ pinmaps /sys/fs/bpf/flow bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 0 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/IP bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 1 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/IPV6 bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 2 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/IPV6OP bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 3 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/IPV6FR bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 4 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/MPLS bpftool map update pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/jmp_table \ key 5 0 0 0 \ value pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/VLAN bpftool prog attach pinned /sys/fs/bpf/flow/flow_dissector flow_dissector Tested by using the above lines to load the prog in the test_flow_dissector.sh selftest.

2018-11-10bpftool: add loadall commandStanislav Fomichev
This patch adds new *loadall* command which slightly differs from the existing *load*. *load* command loads all programs from the obj file, but pins only the first programs. *loadall* pins all programs from the obj file under specified directory. The intended usecase is flow_dissector, where we want to load a bunch of progs, pin them all and after that construct a jump table.

2018-11-09tools: bpftool: fix plain output and doc for --bpffs optionQuentin Monnet
Edit the documentation of the -f|--bpffs option to make it explicit that it dumps paths of pinned programs when bpftool is used to list the programs only, so that users do not believe they will see the name of the newly pinned program with "bpftool prog pin" or "bpftool prog load". Also fix the plain output: do not add a blank line after each program block, in order to remain consistent with what bpftool does when the option is not passed.

Names used to pin eBPF programs and maps under the eBPF virtual file system cannot contain a dot character, which is reserved for future extensions of this file system. Document this in bpftool man pages to avoid users getting confused if pinning fails because of a dot.

2018-10-15bpf: bpftool, add support for attaching programs to mapsJohn Fastabend
Sock map/hash introduce support for attaching programs to maps. To date I have been doing this with custom tooling but this is less than ideal as we shift to using bpftool as the single CLI for our BPF uses. This patch adds new sub commands 'attach' and 'detach' to the 'prog' command to attach programs to maps and then detach them.

2017-10-18tools: bpftool: use more common tag formatJakub Kicinski
Program tag is usually displayed as string of bytes without any separators (e.g. as "aa5520b1090cfeb6" vs MAC addr-like format bpftool uses currently: "aa:55:20:b1:09:0c:fe:b6"). Make bptfool use the more common format both for displaying the tag and selecting the program by tag. This was pointed out in review but I misunderstood the comment.
