[Cilium] Hubble Source Code Study

 

Source Code Study:

https://github.com/cilium/cilium/blob/master/bpf/bpf_lxc.c#L1223
int handle_policy(struct __ctx_buff *ctx)
-> tail_ipv4_policy()
    |
    -> ipv4_policy()
        |
        V
        https://github.com/cilium/cilium/blob/master/bpf/lib/policy_log.h#L46
        send_policy_verdict_notify()
在此function放入 struct policy_verdict_notify 格式化的資料
        |
    -> ctx_event_output()
   (這function是被remap來自skb_event_output()
   會將event送到perf's ring buffer in Kernel)
  
#Cilium 有 perf reader 可以從 Kernel 讀 perf's ring buffer 然後解開msg
https://github.com/cilium/ebpf/blob/master/perf/reader.go


#另外一個會送send_trace_notify()的來源 (有很多bpf的點都會送)
https://github.com/cilium/cilium/blob/master/bpf/bpf_network.c
int from_network(struct __ctx_buff *ctx)
   |
   V
   https://github.com/cilium/cilium/blob/master/bpf/lib/trace.h
   send_trace_notify()
   這個function會發送packet tracing events是很重要的flow來源

#上面兩個例子的notify type 是 CILIUM_NOTIFY_POLICY_VERDICT & CILIUM_NOTIFY_TRACE
#到了Hubble就會是Flow (Layer3/4)主要來源
case monitorAPI.MessageTypeDrop,
monitorAPI.MessageTypeTrace,
monitorAPI.MessageTypePolicyVerdict:
return p.l34.Decode(payload, decoded)
case monitorAPI.MessageTypeAccessLog:
return p.l7.Decode(payload, decoded)

 
BPF datapath events 定義在這

#跟container有關的send_trace_notify()的來源
https://github.com/cilium/cilium/blob/master/bpf/bpf_lxc.c
tail_handle_ipv4()
-> handle_ipv4_from_lxc()
   |
   V

   send_trace_notify()

[ODL] Import ODL Controller using Maven into Eclipse on Windows 10

 

Prerequisites

Java

目前使用的是OpenJDK, 需在Windows的系統環境變數做"JAVA_HOME"設定, 變數值為安裝的JDK路徑

Eclipse

需先在Windows 10上安裝Eclipse IDE, 目前使用的版本是 2019-09 R (4.13)

Maven

下載並解壓縮完成後, 請在系統環境變數做"MAVEN_HOME" and "M2_HOME"設定如下:

Import ODL Controller using Maven into Eclipse

Eclipse 環境設定 for Maven路徑


Install m2e plugin

Help --> Install New Software
在 "Work with" 選擇 m2e release repository 或是 自行增加 ( 輸入 URL 後按下 "Add" )
勾選Maven Integration for Eclipse, 然後按下 "Finish"

把Maven's "Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration" 改選為 "Ignore"

Import ODL Controller


切換到 tag: v3.0.2
$git checkout tags/v3.0.2

Project --> Import

以上述方式import project, 只剩下這種的Maven Error:
"Execution generate-depends-file of goal org.apache.servicemix.tooling:depends-maven-plugin:1.4.0:generate-depends-file failed"

[eBPF] The example of using BCC's trace.py script


If you want to use a container to run BCC's script, you can follow the instructions to build a Docker image and run it as a container.

Dockerfile

[Tracing] Use BCC tools to do dynamic tracing in Linux user space

Here is a very simple example of using BCC to trace a program and get the data from the function's argument.

A Simple Test Code in C: "test.c"
#include <stdio.h>

// student structure
struct student {
  char id[15];
  char firstname[64];
  char lastname[64];
  float points;
};
// function declaration
void getDetail(struct student *);
void displayDetail(struct student *);

int main(void) {
  // student structure variable
  struct student std[1];
  // get student detail
  getDetail(std);
  // display student detail
  displayDetail(std);
  return 0;
}

// function definition
void getDetail(struct student *ptr) {
  int i;
  for (i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
    printf("Enter detail of student #%d\n", (i + 1));
    printf("Enter ID: ");
    scanf("%s", ptr->id);
    printf("Enter first name: ");
    scanf("%s", ptr->firstname);
    printf("Enter last name: ");
    scanf("%s", ptr->lastname);
    printf("Enter Points: ");
    scanf("%f", &ptr->points);
    // update pointer to point at next element
    // of the array std
    ptr++;
  }
}

void displayDetail(struct student *ptr) {
  int i;
  for (i = 0; i < 1; i++) {
    printf("\nDetail of student #%d\n", (i + 1));
    // display result via ptr variable
    printf("\nResult via ptr\n");
    printf("ID: %s\n", ptr->id);
    printf("First Name: %s\n", ptr->firstname);
    printf("Last Name: %s\n", ptr->lastname);
    printf("Points: %f\n", ptr->points);
    // update pointer to point at next element
    // of the array std
    ptr++;
  }
}

The simple BCC example code: "mytrace.py"
It will get and print out the string of firstname when it runs
from __future__ import print_function
from bcc import BPF
from time import strftime
import argparse


# load BPF program
bpf_text = """
#include <uapi/linux/ptrace.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
struct str_t {
    u64 pid;
    char str[80];
};

// student structure
struct student {
  char id[15];
  char firstname[64];
  char lastname[64];
  float points;
};

BPF_PERF_OUTPUT(events);
int printret(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
    struct str_t data  = {};
    char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN] = {};
    u32 pid;
    if (!PT_REGS_RC(ctx))
        return 0;
    pid = bpf_get_current_pid_tgid();
    data.pid = pid;
    bpf_probe_read(&data.str, sizeof(data.str),
        ((struct student *)PT_REGS_RC(ctx))->firstname);
    bpf_get_current_comm(&comm, sizeof(comm));
    events.perf_submit(ctx,&data,sizeof(data));
    return 0;
};
"""

b = BPF(text=bpf_text)
b.attach_uprobe(name="<...your test binary file location...>/test",
        sym="displayDetail", fn_name="printret")

# header
print("%-9s %-6s %s" % ("TIME", "PID", "ARGUMENT"))

def print_event(cpu, data, size):
    event = b["events"].event(data)
    print("%-9s %-6d %s" % (strftime("%H:%M:%S"), event.pid,
                            event.str.decode('utf-8', 'replace')))

b["events"].open_perf_buffer(print_event)
while 1:
    try:
        b.perf_buffer_poll()
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        exit()
Here is the steps:
$ sudo python mytrace.py

# open another terminal
$ gcc -o test test.c
$ ./test
Enter detail of student #1
Enter ID: 1234
Enter first name: Danny
Enter last name: Liu
Enter Points: 100

Detail of student #1

Result via ptr
ID: 1234
First Name: Danny
Last Name: Liu
Points: 100.000000
Then you will see the tracing message in your previous terminal as follows:
(print out the first name from function's argument)
$ sudo python mytrace.py
TIME      PID    ARGUMENT
17:01:32  7265   Danny

[Darknet][Python] Support using Numpy array as image input instead of image path in Darknet Python API

When I dealt with Darknet's detect function in Python, I found that there is only one way for accepting an image file path as the argument, which is convenient for inferencing images from files.  But, it is not very well for images from video files or cameras.
Due to this reason, I dig out some solutions already on the Internet, and modify as follows:

[Spring Boot] My first Spring Boot Project for demo

Recently, the term "Microservices" is very hot in the cloud service/architecture and it gets my attention. So, I want to learn more about what it is. Furthermore, I also notice Spring Cloud is a very popular microservice framework based on Spring Boot and it provides tools for developers to quickly build some of the common patterns in distributed systems (e.g. configuration management, service discovery, circuit breakers, intelligent routing, micro-proxy, control bus, one-time tokens, global locks, leadership election, distributed sessions, cluster state)
