So this flag only matters for the inner map's prototype. Not right now, we would have to open code bpf_map_meta_equal() to cut out that bit from the meta0/1 flags comparison. I wouldn't change bpf_map_meta_equal() itself given that bit can be reused for different purpose for other map types. > You also mentioned that not inlining array access should still be > fast.

Fast in the sense of that we can avoid a retpoline given the direct call to array_map_lookup_elem() as opposed to bpf_map_lookup_elem(). In the array_map_gen_lookup() we even have insn level optimizations such as replacing BPF_MUL with BPF_LSH with immediate elem size on power of 2 #elems as well as avoiding spectre masking (which the call one has not), presumably for cases like XDP we might want the best implementation if usage allows it. > The benefit would be that everything would just work without a special > flag.

Taking the above penalty aside for same sized-elems, simplest one would have been to just set inner_map_meta->ops to &array_map_no_inline_ops inside the bpf_map_meta_alloc().

Recent work in f4d05259213f ("bpf: Add map_meta_equal map ops") and 134fede4eecf ("bpf: Relax max_entries check for most of the inner map types") added support for dynamic inner max elements for most map-in-map types. Exceptions were maps like array or prog array where the map_gen_lookup() callback uses the maps' max_entries field as a constant when emitting instructions. We recently implemented Maglev consistent hashing into Cilium's load balancer which uses map-in-map with an outer map being hash and inner being array holding the Maglev backend table for each service. This has been designed this way in order to reduce overall memory consumption given the outer hash map allows to avoid preallocating a large, flat memory area for all services. Also, the number of service mappings is not always known a-priori. The use case for dynamic inner array map entries is to further reduce memory overhead, for example, some services might just have a small number of back ends while others could have a large number. Right now the Maglev backend table for small and large number of backends would need to have the same inner array map entries which adds a lot of unneeded overhead. Dynamic inner array map entries can be realized by avoiding the inlined code generation for their lookup. The lookup will still be efficient since it will be calling into array_map_lookup_elem() directly and thus avoiding retpoline. The patch adds a BPF_F_INNER_MAP flag to map creation which therefore skips inline code generation and relaxes array_map_meta_equal() check to ignore both maps' max_entries. Example code generation where inner map is dynamic sized array: # bpftool p d x i 125 int handle__sys_enter(void * ctx): ; int handle__sys_enter(void *ctx) 0: (b4) w1 = 0 ; int key = 0; 1: (63) *(u32 *)(r10 -4) = r1 2: (bf) r2 = r10 ; 3: (07) r2 += -4 ; inner_map = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&outer_arr_dyn, &key); 4: (18) r1 = map[id:468] 6: (07) r1 += 272 7: (61) r0 = *(u32 *)(r2 +0) 8: (35) if r0 >= 0x3 goto pc+5 9: (67) r0 <<= 3 10: (0f) r0 += r1 11: (79) r0 = *(u64 *)(r0 +0) 12: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+1 13: (05) goto pc+1 14: (b7) r0 = 0 15: (b4) w6 = -1 ; if (!inner_map) 16: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+6 17: (bf) r2 = r10 ; 18: (07) r2 += -4 ; val = bpf_map_lookup_elem(inner_map, &key); 19: (bf) r1 = r0 | No inlining but instead 20: (85) call array_map_lookup_elem#149280 | call to array_map_lookup_elem() ; return val ? *val : -1; | for inner array lookup. 21: (15) if r0 == 0x0 goto pc+1 ; return val ? *val : -1; 22: (61) r6 = *(u32 *)(r0 +0) ; } 23: (bc) w0 = w6 24: (95) exit Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Cc: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii.nakryiko@gmail.com> --- include/linux/bpf.h | 2 +- include/uapi/linux/bpf.h | 3 +++ kernel/bpf/arraymap.c | 17 +++++++++++------ kernel/bpf/hashtab.c | 6 +++--- kernel/bpf/verifier.c | 4 +++- net/xdp/xskmap.c | 2 +- tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h | 3 +++ 7 files changed, 25 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-)
