We'll test the BTF encoder using perf's eBPF integration, but really we can plain
use clang directly, setting up all its options.

Using perf's integration will save some time here, to see all it does, use
'perf trace -vv' plus the options used below, then all the steps will be shown.

Build perf from the latest kernel sources, use it with clang/llvm like:

  [root@seventh ~]# clang --version
  clang version 8.0.0 (http://llvm.org/git/clang.git 8587270a739ee30c926a76d5657e65e85b560f6e) (http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git 0566eefef9c3777bd780ec4cbb9efa764633b76c)
  Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
  Thread model: posix
  InstalledDir: /usr/local/bin
  [root@seventh ~]# llc --version | head -17
  LLVM (http://llvm.org/):
    LLVM version 8.0.0svn
    DEBUG build with assertions.
    Default target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    Host CPU: skylake

    Registered Targets:
      aarch64    - AArch64 (little endian)
      aarch64_be - AArch64 (big endian)

      bpfel      - BPF (little endian)
      hexagon    - Hexagon
  [root@seventh ~]# 

Then enable saving the object file build as part of perf's handling of foo.c type
events, i.e. eBPF programs that will be compiled with clang and then loaded with
sys_bpf() to possibly insert events in perf's ring buffer via bpf_perf_event_output(),
or interact with the system via bpf_trace_printk() or just work as filters, etc:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	dump-obj = true

Then run a simple example, found in the kernel sources:

  # perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null
  LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o
     0.000 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
     0.028 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
     0.291 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
  #

Notice that "LLVM: dumping..." line, look at the ELF sections in that file:

  [root@seventh perf]# readelf -SW tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o

file with the conversion from the DWARF sections to a new one, for BTF:

That new ".BTF" section should then be parseable by the kernel, that has a BTF
decoder, something not available for pahole at this time, but that will come in
a later version.

When pahole tries to read the DWARF info in that BPF ELF file, hello.o, we can se
a problem that will require us to add another option to the .perfconfig llvm section:

We need to pass some options to llvm, via the llvm.opts variable in ~/.perfconfig:

  [root@seventh perf]# cat ~/.perfconfig 
  [llvm]
	  dump-obj = true
	  clang-opt = -g
	  opts = -mattr=dwarfris
  [root@seventh perf]# perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null
  LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o
       0.000 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
       0.018 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
       0.209 __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
  [root@seventh perf]# pahole tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o

This is not needed when using elfutils >= 0.173, pahole will just work as above.

Now we need to go test the kernel, and to load that file with a BTF section we
can also use perf, passing the .o file instead of the .c one, skipping the
compilation phase and using the modified .o file, we will also run in system
wide mode, so taht we can keep that BPF object loaded and attached to the
tracepoint, so that we can use the kernel facilities to inspect the BTF file as
read and processed by the kernel:

  # perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c 2> /dev/null

Now to look if the kernel has the bpf filesystem:

  [acme@jouet perf]$ grep bpf /proc/filesystems 
  nodev	bpf
  [acme@jouet perf]$
  [root@jouet ~]# mount -t bpf nodev /sys/fs/bpf
  [root@jouet ~]# mount | grep bpf
  nodev on /sys/fs/bpf type bpf (rw,relatime)
  [root@jouet ~]# cd /sys/fs/bpf
  [root@jouet bpf]# ls -la
  total 0
  drwxrwxrwt.  2 root root 0 Aug 15 17:42 .
  drwxr-xr-x. 10 root root 0 Aug 13 15:04 ..
  [root@jouet bpf]#

Work is planned to allow using BTF info to pretty print from the bpf fs, see:

For bpftool, BTF pretty print support is missing
for per-cpu maps. bpffs print for per-cpu hash/array maps
need to be added as well. Will add them later.

To see what libbpf and its users, like perf, does when a ".BTF" ELF section is
found in a BPF object being loaded via sys_bpf(), we can use 'perf ftrace' to
show the sequence of events inside the kernel to load, validade and initialize
data structures related to the request:

  # perf ftrace -G *btf* perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.o cat /etc/passwd

This should be enough for us to validate pahole's BTF encoder, and now one can
use 'pahole -F btf' to obtain mostly the same results as with the default use
of '-F dwarf', modulo things like explicit alignments that are not present in
BTF and need some work to be inferred from existing non-natural alignment holes.
