tools: bpftool: add support for reporting the effective cgroup progs
Takshak said in the original submission: With different bpf attach_flags available to attach bpf programs specially with BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE and BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI, the list of effective bpf-programs available to any sub-cgroups really needs to be available for easy debugging. Using BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE flag, one can get the list of not only attached bpf-programs to a cgroup but also the inherited ones from parent cgroup. So a new option is introduced to use BPF_F_QUERY_EFFECTIVE query flag here to list all the effective bpf-programs available for execution at a specified cgroup. Reused modified test program test_cgroup_attach from tools/testing/selftests/bpf: # ./test_cgroup_attach With old bpftool: # bpftool cgroup show /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup-test-work-dir/cg1/ ID AttachType AttachFlags Name 271 egress multi pkt_cntr_1 272 egress multi pkt_cntr_2 Attached new program pkt_cntr_4 in cg2 gives following: # bpftool cgroup show /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup-test-work-dir/cg1/cg2 ID AttachType AttachFlags Name 273 egress override pkt_cntr_4 And with new "effective" option it shows all effective programs for cg2: # bpftool cgroup show /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup-test-work-dir/cg1/cg2 effective ID AttachType AttachFlags Name 273 egress override pkt_cntr_4 271 egress override pkt_cntr_1 272 egress override pkt_cntr_2 Compared to original submission use a local flag instead of global option. We need to clear query_flags on every command, in case batch mode wants to use varying settings. v2: (Takshak) - forbid duplicated flags; - fix cgroup path freeing.
