eBPF performance tests should perform end-to-end tests #594

Open Alan-Jowett opened 3 years ago

Alan-Jowett commented 3 years ago

eBPF performance tests currently only focus on the platform and execution context.

It would make sense to add the ability to run more meaningful end-to-end performance tests that loaded eBPF programs + maps and measure performance in situ.

Proposal: Build a library of cross-platform eBPF performance tests built on top of BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN and libbpf. This will permit running the same tests on Linux and Windows for cross platform performance comparisons.

  1. Perf test for LRU and hash map
  2. Write empty ebpf program and measure the invocation of eBPF program.

I would recommend updating bpftool to allow it to set CPU id for the bpftool prog run command. This will allow using bpftool for performance measurements without needing to write a new tool.
