bpf_doc.py parses bpf.h header to collect information about various API elements (such as BPF helpers) and then dump them in one of the supported formats: rst docs and a C header. It's useful for external tools to be able to consume this information in an easy-to-parse format such as JSON. Implement JSON printers and add --json command line argument. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20250506000605.497296-1-isolodrai@xxxxxxxx/ Signed-off-by: Ihor Solodrai <isolodrai@xxxxxxxx> --- scripts/bpf_doc.py | 112 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ 1 file changed, 98 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/bpf_doc.py b/scripts/bpf_doc.py index e74a01a85070..d669a0e16bf2 100755 --- a/scripts/bpf_doc.py +++ b/scripts/bpf_doc.py @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ from __future__ import print_function import argparse +import json import re import sys, os import subprocess @@ -43,6 +44,14 @@ class APIElement(object): self.ret = ret self.attrs = attrs + def to_dict(self): + return { + 'proto': self.proto, + 'desc': self.desc, + 'ret': self.ret, + 'attrs': self.attrs + } + class Helper(APIElement): """ @@ -81,6 +90,11 @@ class Helper(APIElement): return res + def to_dict(self): + d = super().to_dict() + d.update(self.proto_break_down()) + return d + ATTRS = { '__bpf_fastcall': 'bpf_fastcall' @@ -675,7 +689,7 @@ COMMANDS self.print_elem(command) -class PrinterHelpers(Printer): +class PrinterHelpersHeader(Printer): """ A printer for dumping collected information about helpers as C header to be included from BPF program. @@ -896,6 +910,43 @@ class PrinterHelpers(Printer): print(') = (void *) %d;' % helper.enum_val) print('') + +class PrinterHelpersJSON(Printer): + """ + A printer for dumping collected information about helpers as a JSON file. + @parser: A HeaderParser with Helper objects + """ + + def __init__(self, parser): + self.elements = parser.helpers + self.elem_number_check( + parser.desc_unique_helpers, + parser.define_unique_helpers, + "helper", + "___BPF_FUNC_MAPPER", + ) + + def print_all(self): + helper_dicts = [helper.to_dict() for helper in self.elements] + out_dict = {'helpers': helper_dicts} + print(json.dumps(out_dict, indent=4)) + + +class PrinterSyscallJSON(Printer): + """ + A printer for dumping collected syscall information as a JSON file. + @parser: A HeaderParser with APIElement objects + """ + + def __init__(self, parser): + self.elements = parser.commands + self.elem_number_check(parser.desc_syscalls, parser.enum_syscalls, 'syscall', 'bpf_cmd') + + def print_all(self): + syscall_dicts = [syscall.to_dict() for syscall in self.elements] + out_dict = {'syscall': syscall_dicts} + print(json.dumps(out_dict, indent=4)) + ############################################################################### # If script is launched from scripts/ from kernel tree and can access @@ -910,6 +961,19 @@ printers = { 'syscall': PrinterSyscallRST, } +# target -> output format -> printer +printers = { + 'helpers': { + 'rst': PrinterHelpersRST, + 'json': PrinterHelpersJSON, + 'header': PrinterHelpersHeader, + }, + 'syscall': { + 'rst': PrinterSyscallRST, + 'json': PrinterSyscallJSON + }, +} + argParser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description=""" Parse eBPF header file and generate documentation for the eBPF API.
