And I think 2 levels is enough when we use relay map in `/sys/kernel/debug/`: <dir_name>/<map_name>[#cpu]. The `dir_name` is necessary because user could use the same `map_name` in different bpf programs, and we can use it as an additional tag to distinguish them. The `dir_name` is set by user with relay_map_update_elem. Here is an example. Assume we have 2 relay maps (rmap_a and rmap_b) and 2 cpus, the debugfs will be like: ``` /sys/kernel/debug/<dir_name1>/rmap_a0 /sys/kernel/debug/<dir_name1>/rmap_a1 /sys/kernel/debug/<dir_name2>/rmap_b0 /sys/kernel/debug/<dir_name2>/rmap_b1 ``` So I think the key point here is that we just need one field to set the `dir_name`, either key or value. I chose key as NULL because I think it suggests "Normally map_update_elem should be invoked just once for a relay map". But I think it okay to use key instead, and value as NULL. >> + >> + /* set default subbuf num */ >> + attr->map_extra = attr->map_extra & UINT_MAX; >> + if (!attr->map_extra) >> + attr->map_extra = 8; >> + >> + if (!attr->map_name || strlen(attr->map_name) == 0) > > attr->map_name is allways != NULL > >> + return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL); >> + >> + rmap = bpf_map_area_alloc(sizeof(*rmap), NUMA_NO_NODE); >> + if (!rmap) >> + return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM); >> + >> + bpf_map_init_from_attr(&rmap->map, attr); >> + >> + rmap->relay_cb.create_buf_file = create_buf_file_handler; >> + rmap->relay_cb.remove_buf_file = remove_buf_file_handler; >> + if (attr->map_flags & BPF_F_OVERWRITE) >> + rmap->relay_cb.subbuf_start = subbuf_start_overwrite; >> + >> + rmap->relay_chan = relay_open(NULL, NULL, >> + attr->max_entries, attr->map_extra, >> + &rmap->relay_cb, NULL); > > wrong indentation > Got it.

TBH, I have thought of implement it with helpers (I'm not very familiar with kfuncs, but I think they could be similar?), but I was stumped by how to close the channel. We can create a relay channel, hold it with a map, but it could be difficult for the bpf program to close the channel with relay_close().

We need to store relay_cb, because the relay channel only uses a pointer of struct rchan_callbacks.

I will move it before relay_close, and check if rmap->relay_chan->parent is valid. Thanks.

And I think it > could be the difference compared with bpf_cpumask. I've learned more about kfunc and kptr, and find that kptr can be automatically released with a given map. Then, it is technically feasible to use relay interface with kfuncs. Specificially, creating a relay channel and getting the pointer with kfunc, transferring it as a kptr into a map, and then it lives with the map. Though I'm not sure if this is better than map-based implementation, as mostly it will be used with a map (I haven't thought of a case without a map yet). And with kfunc, it will be a little more complex to create a relay channel. Thanks.

Yes. kptr of bpf_cpumask can be destroyed by the freeing of map or doing it explicitly through bpf_kptr_xchg() and release kfunc. > > Though I'm not sure if this is better than map-based implementation, > as mostly it will be used with a map (I haven't thought of a case > without a map yet).

BPF_MAP_TYPE_RELAY is implemented based on relay interface, which creates per-cpu buffer to transfer data. Each buffer is essentially a list of fix-sized sub-buffers, and is exposed to user space as files in debugfs. attr->max_entries is used as subbuf size and attr->map_extra is used as subbuf num. Currently, the default value of subbuf num is 8. The data can be accessed by read or mmap via these files. For example, if there are 2 cpus, files could be `/sys/kernel/debug/mydir/my_rmap0` and `/sys/kernel/debug/mydir/my_rmap1`. Buffer-only mode is used to create the relay map, which just allocates the buffer without creating user-space files. Then user can setup the files with map_update_elem, thus allowing user to define the directory name in debugfs. map_update_elem is implemented in the following patch. A new map flag named BPF_F_OVERWRITE is introduced to set overwrite mode of relay map.
