Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] cgroup: expose cpu.stat and io.stat to BPF
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 14:17:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820211758.3393984-1-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 CPU and block I/O controllers.
Patch 1 adds the CPU kfuncs, and patch 2 adds their selftest. Patch 3
adds the blkcg kfuncs, and patch 4 adds their selftest.
This v3 combines the two previously posted v2 series:
CPU v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260818002450.3071325-1-ziyang.meme@gmail.com/
blkcg v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260817214205.723267-1-ziyang.meme@gmail.com/
===
Changes since CPU v2:
- Rename bpf_cpu.c to bpf_cgroup.c and use unlikely() and container_of()
for the task_group conversion.
- Remove bpf_css_flush_rstat() and register the existing
css_rstat_flush() in the common kfunc set.
- Remove the SLEEPABLE mark bpf_cgroup_base_stat().
Changes since blkcg v2:
- Add bpf_cgroup_css() and bpf_css_release() to keep a controller css
alive across the sleepable rstat flush.
- Add an RCU-protected checked css-to-blkcg conversion and make the blkg
iterator take the typed blkcg pointer.
- Use the existing css_rstat_flush() and remove bpf_blkcg_flush_stats().
- Do not expose root io.stat values.
===
Changes since CPU v1:
- Make the rstat flush generic, move it to rstat.c, and make it take a css.
- Expose cgroup_base_stat directly instead of repacking its CPU times.
- Replace the throttled-time aggregation kfunc with a checked RCU cast in
the CPU cgroup BPF code. The cast preserves the verifier type needed for
the BPF program to perform the per-CPU sum itself.
- Remove the scheduler changes.
Built with LLVM. Pass test on v7.2-rc5.
