Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] block: expose blkcg io.stat to BPF
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 14:42:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817214205.723267-1-ziyang.meme@gmail.com> (raw)
Collecting cgroup statistics is expensive: the existing method is to
open and parse a cgroup file for every cgroup of interest. The memory
controller already has an efficient alternative through BPF; this series
extends that model to the block I/O controller's per-device io.stat.
Patch 1 adds the blkcg flush and per-device iterator.
Patch 2 adds a selftest that performs direct I/O on a private loop
device and compares every counter read by BPF with io.stat.
===
Changes since v1.
- Drop the blkcg acquire/release helpers. The program reads the io
controller's css from cgroup->subsys[] under RCU instead.
- Remove the kfuncs that read the blkg device ID and counters; BPF
programs can read those fields with BPF_CORE_READ().
- Keep the flush sleepable. It now takes a struct cgroup * and pins its
CSS internally.
- Make the blkg iterator take an RCU-protected CSS.
Tested on VM with v7.2-rc5.
