bpfib

bpfib is a CLI tool that contains various subcommands useful for IP routing with BPF.

Subcommands

lookup

bpfib lookup is an ip route get, but for bpf_fib_lookup. In some cases, regular Linux FIB lookup and bpf_fib_lookup produces different results for the same parameter. For example, bpf_fib_lookup is forwarding only (cannot handle the local routes), and unicast only (cannot handle multicast routes, Light Weight Tunnel routes such as MPLS or SRv6 routes). This means ip route get does not always reflect the result of FIB lookup with bpf_fib_lookup. This command allows you to lookup FIB from BPF's perspective, but without writing BPF program.

Usage

Lookup FIB using bpf_fib_lookup helper function

Usage: lookup [flags] dest iif [options]

Options:

	totlen		<length>			Total length of the IP packet
	tos		<tos in hex>			ToS for IPv4
	flowinfo	<flowinfo in hex>		Flow Label + Priority for IPv6
	from		<address>			Source address
	l4proto		<tcp|udp>			L4 protocol
	sport		<port>				Source port
	dport		<port>				Destination port

Flags:
      --direct   Set direct option (BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_DIRECT)
  -h, --help     help for lookup
      --output   Set output option (BPF_FIB_LOOKUP_OUTPUT)

Example

$ ip r show dev eth0 table all
default via 10.1.33.1 proto dhcp metric 600
...
local 10.1.33.24 table local proto kernel scope host src 10.1.33.24

$ ip -d r get 10.1.33.1 dev eth0
unicast 10.1.33.1 dev eth0 table main src 10.1.33.24 uid 1000
    cache

$ bpfib lookup 10.1.33.1 eth0
10.1.33.1 dev eth0 mtu 1500 smac f0:9e:4a:8c:0d:34 dmac e4:83:26:4b:ad:bd metric 600

$ ip -d r get 10.1.33.24 dev eth0
local 10.1.33.24 dev lo table local src 10.1.33.24 uid 1000
    cache <local>

$ bpfib lookup 10.1.33.24 eth0
Not Forwarded (BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NOT_FWDED)
