    do with us? • 2) What is Rucy for, and Why? • 3) What is going on behind Rucy • Overview, BPF Opcode and mruby VM Opcode, Transpilation • 4) Conclusion, demo aiming at the future ࠓ೔࿩͢಺༰Ͱ͢ɻ 3VDZͷ࿩Λ͢Δલʹલఏ஌͕ࣝͨ͘͞Μ͋ΔͷͰɺॱ࣍આ໌͍͖ͯ͠·͢ɻ
  3. BPF is: • One of the latest Linux SOTAs •

    Used, for example, in the following areas: • Networking • Server Tracing (Observability) • Do you know DTrace? What BPF can do is almost like that. • Device Access Auditing for containers #1'͸-JOVYͷ࠷ઌ୺ٕज़ͷҰͭͰ͢ɻωοτϫʔΫɺύϑΥʔϚϯεɾτϨʔεɺ ίϯςφ಺෦ͷσόΠεΞΫηε੍ޚͷ಺෦ͳͲͰ࢖ΘΕ͍ͯ·͢ɻ

  6. To begin with: Can BPF be used via Ruby? •

    The answer is Yes. • I created RbBCC • BCC is a BPF SDK for Python, and Lua... • I need Ruby’s one. So created. • BCC uses FFI(ctypes) to access libbcc, then RbBCC uses Fiddle. • RbBCC can do basic traces as BCC do. • RbBCC is one of the results of a Ruby Association Grant in 2019.

  7. BCC’s pitfalls • Tools with (Rb)BCC do the whole BPF

    compilation process • When it starts tracing - Just In Time • It causes: • 1) overhead • 2) large number of files required to build • The compilation process needs LLVM, clang and kernel headers. ͔͠͠ɺ#$$ʢ3C#$$ʣ͸ɺτϨʔεͷ࠷ॳʹ#1'ϓϩάϥϜΛͦͷ৔ͰίϯύΠϧ͠·͢ɻ Φʔόʔϔου΍ɺίϯύΠϧʹඞཁͳ؀ڥͷංେԽͳͲ໰୊͕͋Γ·͢ɻ
  8. Brand-new BPF tool for Ruby • Linux community recommends to

    precompile the "BPF binary” • As tools using on-the-fly build are such problematic • Tools should be served as “One Binary” ✴ There are also mechanisms to absorb differences in execution environments such as the kernel version. ✴ These portable one-binary commands are called BPF CO-RE (Compile Once, Run Everywhere).

  9. “One Binary” in Ruby • mruby seems to be the

    best way • to achieve the "one binary for everything" goal. • But - "BPF binary” can only be created in C, effectively NSVCZΛ࢖͑͹ϫϯόΠφϦΛ࡞Δ͜ͱ͕Ͱ͖ͦ͏Ͱ͢ɻ Ͱ͕͢ɺʮ#1'όΠφϦʯ΋༻ҙ͠ͳ͍ͱ͍͚·ͤΜɻ͜Ε͸࣮࣭తʹ$ݴޠͰ͔͠ॻ͚·ͤΜɻ
  10. Making a BPF binary • We need to pass the

    C code to the clang command: • I decided to make a tool that enable Rubyists - • To make "BPF binaries" without writing any C code! ✴ In fact, Rust can create BPF binaries using RedBPF crate. But - this is RubyKaigi. 🆕 ͡Ό͋ɺશ෦3VCZͰॻ͚ΔΑ͏ʹ͠·͠ΐ͏ɻ
  11. Summary so far: • BPF is an emerging Linux technology

    • used in fast firewalls, lightweight tracers, and containers security. • You can use BPF technology from Ruby via BCC. • But BCC is problematic because it compiles on the fly. • Precompiled "One binary" is recommended. • You need to write C language for the "BPF binary" part. • Writing every part of BPF program in Ruby is a desire of Rubyists. ͜͜·Ͱͷ·ͱΊͰ͢ɻ ͱʹ͔͘ɺ#1'ʹؔΘΔ͢΂ͯͷύʔτΛ3VCZͰॻ͖ͨ͋͘Γ·ͤΜ͔ʁ
  12. Reprise: what is Rucy • Rucy is a “Ruby Compiler”

    to BPF target. • In other words: • Rucy generates “BPF binary” directly from a plain-old Ruby script. ✴ Rucy is named after “Ruby Compiler” (Ru-C -> Rucy) 3VDZʢ3V$ʣ͸ʮ3VCZ$PNQJMFSʯͰ͢ɻ ͩ͘Μͷʮ#1'όΠφϦʯΛɺ3VCZεΫϦϓτ͔Β௚઀ίϯύΠϧͯ͠ੜ੒͠·͢ɻ

  14. BPF OpCode Overview • BPF has its own VM and

    OpCode set. • The VM can use 10 registers • BPF instructions are basically 64bit fixed length • Instruction classes are: LD, LDX, ST, STX, ALU, JMP, and ALU64 • Layout: ASCII C Struct #1'͸ɺಠࣗͷϨδελϚγϯ7.Λ࣋ͪ·͢ɻͷϨδελ͕͋Γɺ ໋ྩ͸͓͓ΉͶCJUͷݻఆ௕Ͱ͢ɻόΠφϦϨΠΞ΢τ͸εϥΠυͷ௨ΓͰ͢ɻ
  15. Mruby OpCode Overview • Like CRuby, mruby has its VM

    and OpCodes • can use 65536 registers, recommended to use only 256. • Instructions are in variable length • It depends on what kind of operands it will take. • The sizes of the operand variable ... • B (8 bits), S (16 bits), W (24 bits), and Z (no operand) NSVCZ΋ϨδελϚγϯͷ7.͕͋Γ·͢ɻϨδελ͸ͨ͘͞Μ࢖͑·͢ɻ ໋ྩ͸Մม௕Ͱ͢ɻ#ɺ4ɺ8ɺ;ͷΦϖϥϯυ͕͋Γ·͢ɻ

  22. Conclusion • We can create a BPF binary object from

    Ruby script directly. • This BPF object + mruby + libbpf = whole command binary • Less context switch for programers • Shared data structures (in the future? Not yet implemented...) 3VCZΛίϯύΠϧͯ͠#1'Λ࡞Γ·ͨ͠ɻશ෦3VCZͰॻ͚Δͱศརͩͱࢥ͍·͢ɻ কདྷ͸3VCZͷΫϥεͰɺΧʔωϧͱϢʔβϥϯυͷσʔλߏ଄Λڞ༗Ͱ͖Ε͹ͱɻকདྷ͸ɻ

  24. Tracing TCP’s connect on the host • By mruby cli

    tool embedded with Rucy BPF object
  25. Restrictions and aiming at the future • Only implemented the

    really minimum BPF functionality. • 🙆: Generate very basic BPF opcodes • 🙆: Call BPF-specific helper functions (e.g. bpf_trace_printk()) • 🙅: Handle a BPF Map data structure • 🙅: Inject parameters via rodata, ... • Gradually implement all of them.
