This patchset includes a helper and an example to determine whether the probe is
currently executing in the context of a specific cgroup based on a cgroup bpf
map / array. The helper checks the cgroupsv2 hierarchy based on the handle in
the map and if the current cgroup is equal to it, or a descendant of it. The
helper was tested with the example program, and it was verified that the correct
behaviour occurs in the interrupt context.
In an earlier version of this patchset I had added an "opensnoop"-like tool, and
I realized I was basically reimplementing a lot of the code that already exists
in the bcc repo. So, instead I decided to write a test that creates a new mount
namespace, mounts up the cgroupv2 hierarchy, and does some basic tests. I used
the sync syscall as a canary for these tests because it's a simple, 0-arg
syscall. Once this patch is accepted, adding support to opensnoop will be easy.
I also added a task_under_cgroup_hierarchy function in cgroups.h, as this
pattern is used in a couple places. Converting those can be done in a later
patchset.
Thanks to Alexei, Tejun, and Daniel for providing review.
v1->v2: Clean up
v2->v3: Move around ifdefs out of *.c files, add an "integration" test
v3->v4: De-genercize arraymap fetching function;
rename helper from in_cgroup to under_cgroup (makes much more sense)
Split adding cgroups task_under_cgroup_hierarchy function
v4->v5: Fix formatting
Sargun Dhillon (3):
cgroup: Add task_under_cgroup_hierarchy cgroup inline function to
headers
bpf: Add bpf_current_task_under_cgroup helper
samples/bpf: Add test_current_task_under_cgroup test
