Maciej Fijalkowski says: ==================== Hi! This small set can be considered as a followup after recent addition of support for tailcalls in bpf subprograms and is focused on optimizing x64 JIT prologue and epilogue sections. Turns out the popping tail call counter is not needed anymore and %rsp handling when stack depth is 0 can be skipped. For longer explanations, please see commit messages. Thank you, Maciej ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

There is no particular reason for keeping the "sub 0, %rsp" insn within the BPF's x64 JIT prologue. When tail call code was skipping the whole prologue section these 7 bytes that represent the rsp subtraction could not be simply discarded as the jump target address would be broken. An option to address that would be to substitute it with nop7. Right now tail call is skipping only first 11 bytes of target program's prologue and "sub X, %rsp" is the first insn that is processed, so if stack depth is zero then this insn could be omitted without the need for nop7 swap. Therefore, do not emit the "sub 0, %rsp" in prologue when program is not making use of R10 register. Also, make the emission of "add X, %rsp" conditional in tail call code logic and take into account the presence of mentioned insn when calculating the jump offsets.

Back when all of the callee-saved registers where always pushed to stack in x64 JIT prologue, tail call counter was placed at the bottom of the BPF program's stack frame that had a following layout: +-------------+ | ret addr | +-------------+ | rbp | <- rbp +-------------+ | | | free space | | from: | | sub $x,%rsp | | | +-------------+ | rbx | +-------------+ | r13 | +-------------+ | r14 | +-------------+ | r15 | +-------------+ | tail call | <- rsp | counter | +-------------+ In order to restore the callee saved registers, epilogue needed to explicitly toss away the tail call counter via "pop %rbx" insn, so that %rsp would be back at the place where %r15 was stored. Currently, the tail call counter is placed on stack *before* the callee saved registers (brackets on rbx through r15 mean that they are now pushed to stack only if they are used): +-------------+ | ret addr | +-------------+ | rbp | <- rbp +-------------+ | | | free space | | from: | | sub $x,%rsp | | | +-------------+ | tail call | | counter | +-------------+ ( rbx ) +-------------+ ( r13 ) +-------------+ ( r14 ) +-------------+ ( r15 ) <- rsp +-------------+ For the record, the epilogue insns consist of (assuming all of the callee saved registers are used by program): pop %r15 pop %r14 pop %r13 pop %rbx pop %rcx leaveq retq "pop %rbx" for getting rid of tail call counter was not an option anymore as it would overwrite the restored value of %rbx register, so it was changed to use the %rcx register. Since epilogue can start popping the callee saved registers right away without any additional work, the "pop %rcx" could be dropped altogether as "leave" insn will simply move the %rbp to %rsp. IOW, tail call counter does not need the explicit handling. Having in mind the explanation above and the actual reason for that, let's piggy back on "leave" insn for discarding the tail call counter from stack and remove the "pop %rcx" from epilogue.

Toke Høiland-Jørgensen says: ==================== This series adds support attaching freplace BPF programs to multiple targets. This is needed to support incremental attachment of multiple XDP programs using the libxdp dispatcher model. Patch 1 moves prog_aux->linked_prog and the trampoline to be embedded in bpf_tracing_link on attach, and freed by the link release logic, and introduces a mutex to protect the writing of the pointers in prog->aux. Based on this refactoring (and previously applied patches), it becomes pretty straight-forward to support multiple-attach for freplace programs (patch 2). This is simply a matter of creating a second bpf_tracing_link if a target is supplied. However, for API consistency with other types of link attach, this option is added to the BPF_LINK_CREATE API instead of extending bpf_raw_tracepoint_open(). Patch 3 is a port of Jiri Olsa's patch to support fentry/fexit on freplace programs. His approach of getting the target type from the target program reference no longer works after we've gotten rid of linked_prog (because the bpf_tracing_link reference disappears on attach). Instead, we used the saved reference to the target prog type that is also used to verify compatibility on secondary freplace attachment. Patch 4 is the accompanying libbpf update, and patches 5-7 are selftests: patch 5 tests for the multi-freplace functionality itself; patch 6 is Jiri's previous selftest for the fentry-to-freplace fix; patch 7 is a test for the change introduced in the previously-applied patches, blocking MODIFY_RETURN functions from attaching to other BPF programs. With this series, libxdp and xdp-tools can successfully attach multiple programs one at a time. To play with this, use the 'freplace-multi-attach' branch of xdp-tools: $ git clone --recurse-submodules --branch freplace-multi-attach https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-tools $ cd xdp-tools/xdp-loader $ make $ sudo ./xdp-loader load veth0 ../lib/testing/xdp_drop.o $ sudo ./xdp-loader load veth0 ../lib/testing/xdp_pass.o $ sudo ./xdp-loader status The series is also available here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/toke/linux.git/log/?h=bpf-freplace-multi-attach-alt-10 Changelog: v10: - Dial back the s/tgt_/dst_/ replacement a bit - Fix smatch warning (from ktest robot) - Rebase to bpf-next, drop already-applied patches v9: - Clarify commit message of patch 3 - Add new struct bpf_attach_target_info for returning from bpf_check_attach_target() and passing to bpf_trampoline_get() - Move trampoline key computation into a helper - Make sure we don't break bpffs debug umh - Add some comment blocks explaining the logic flow in bpf_tracing_prog_attach() - s/tgt_/dst_/ in prog->aux, and for local variables using those members - Always drop dst_trampoline and dst_prog from prog->aux on first attach - Don't remove syscall fmod_ret test from selftest benchmarks - Add saved_ prefix to dst_{prog,attach}_type members in prog_aux - Drop prog argument from check_attach_modify_return() - Add comment about possible NULL of tr_link->tgt_prog on link_release() v8: - Add a separate error message when trying to attach FMOD_REPLACE to tgt_prog - Better error messages in bpf_program__attach_freplace() - Don't lock mutex when setting tgt_* pointers in prog create and verifier - Remove fmod_ret programs from benchmarks in selftests (new patch 11) - Fix a few other nits in selftests v7: - Add back missing ptype == prog->type check in link_create() - Use tracing_bpf_link_attach() instead of separate freplace_bpf_link_attach() - Don't break attachment of bpf_iters in libbpf (by clobbering link_create.iter_info) v6: - Rebase to latest bpf-next - Simplify logic in bpf_tracing_prog_attach() - Don't create a new attach_type for link_create(), disambiguate on prog->type instead - Use raw_tracepoint_open() in libbpf bpf_program__attach_ftrace() if called with NULL target - Switch bpf_program__attach_ftrace() to take function name as parameter instead of btf_id - Add a patch disallowing MODIFY_RETURN programs from attaching to other BPF programs, and an accompanying selftest (patches 1 and 10) v5: - Fix typo in inline function definition of bpf_trampoline_get() - Don't put bpf_tracing_link in prog->aux, use a mutex to protect tgt_prog and trampoline instead, and move them to the link on attach. - Restore Jiri as author of the last selftest patch v4: - Cleanup the refactored check_attach_btf_id() to make the logic easier to follow - Fix cleanup paths for bpf_tracing_link - Use xchg() for removing the bpf_tracing_link from prog->aux and restore on (some) failures - Use BPF_LINK_CREATE operation to create link with target instead of extending raw_tracepoint_open - Fold update of tools/ UAPI header into main patch - Update arg dereference patch to use skeletons and set_attach_target() v3: - Get rid of prog_aux->linked_prog entirely in favour of a bpf_tracing_link - Incorporate Jiri's fix for attaching fentry to freplace programs v2: - Drop the log arguments from bpf_raw_tracepoint_open - Fix kbot errors - Rebase to latest bpf-next ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Eelco reported we can't properly access arguments if the tracing program is attached to extension program. Having following program: SEC("classifier/test_pkt_md_access") int test_pkt_md_access(struct __sk_buff *skb) with its extension: SEC("freplace/test_pkt_md_access") int test_pkt_md_access_new(struct __sk_buff *skb) and tracing that extension with: SEC("fentry/test_pkt_md_access_new") int BPF_PROG(fentry, struct sk_buff *skb) It's not possible to access skb argument in the fentry program, with following error from verifier: ; int BPF_PROG(fentry, struct sk_buff *skb) 0: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r1 +0) invalid bpf_context access off=0 size=8 The problem is that btf_ctx_access gets the context type for the traced program, which is in this case the extension. But when we trace extension program, we want to get the context type of the program that the extension is attached to, so we can access the argument properly in the trace program. This version of the patch is tweaked slightly from Jiri's original one, since the refactoring in the previous patches means we have to get the target prog type from the new variable in prog->aux instead of directly from the target prog.

This enables support for attaching freplace programs to multiple attach points. It does this by amending the UAPI for bpf_link_Create with a target btf ID that can be used to supply the new attachment point along with the target program fd. The target must be compatible with the target that was supplied at program load time. The implementation reuses the checks that were factored out of check_attach_btf_id() to ensure compatibility between the BTF types of the old and new attachment. If these match, a new bpf_tracing_link will be created for the new attach target, allowing multiple attachments to co-exist simultaneously. The code could theoretically support multiple-attach of other types of tracing programs as well, but since I don't have a use case for any of those, there is no API support for doing so.

In preparation for allowing multiple attachments of freplace programs, move the references to the target program and trampoline into the bpf_tracing_link structure when that is created. To do this atomically, introduce a new mutex in prog->aux to protect writing to the two pointers to target prog and trampoline, and rename the members to make it clear that they are related. With this change, it is no longer possible to attach the same tracing program multiple times (detaching in-between), since the reference from the tracing program to the target disappears on the first attach. However, since the next patch will let the caller supply an attach target, that will also make it possible to attach to the same place multiple times.

Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== Add support for loading and storing BTF in either little- or big-endian integer encodings, regardless of host endianness. This allows users of libbpf to not care about endianness when they don't want to and transparently open/load BTF of any endianness. libbpf will preserve original endianness and will convert output raw data as necessary back to original endianness, if necessary. This allows tools like pahole to be ignorant to such issues during cross-compilation. While working with BTF data in memory, the endianness is always native to the host. Convetion can happen only during btf__get_raw_data() call, and only in a raw data copy. Additionally, it's possible to force output BTF endianness through new btf__set_endianness() API. This which allows to create flexible tools doing arbitrary conversions of BTF endianness, just by relying on libbpf.

Teach BTF to recognized wrong endianness and transparently convert it internally to host endianness. Original endianness of BTF will be preserved and used during btf__get_raw_data() to convert resulting raw data to the same endianness and a source raw_data. This means that little-endian host can parse big-endian BTF with no issues, all the type data will be presented to the client application in native endianness, but when it's time for emitting BTF to persist it in a file (e.g., after BTF deduplication), original non-native endianness will be preserved and stored. It's possible to query original endianness of BTF data with new btf__endianness() API. It's also possible to override desired output endianness with btf__set_endianness(), so that if application needs to load, say, big-endian BTF and store it as little-endian BTF, it's possible to manually override this. If btf__set_endianness() was used to change endianness, btf__endianness() will reflect overridden endianness. Given there are no known use cases for supporting cross-endianness for .BTF.ext, loading .BTF.ext in non-native endianness is not supported.

Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== This patch set introduces a new set of BTF APIs to libbpf that allow to conveniently produce BTF types and strings. These APIs will allow libbpf to do more intrusive modifications of program's BTF (by rewriting it, at least as of right now), which is necessary for the upcoming libbpf static linking. But they are complete and generic, so can be adopted by anyone who has a need to produce BTF type information. One such example outside of libbpf is pahole, which was actually converted to these APIs (locally, pending landing of these changes in libbpf) completely and shows reduction in amount of custom pahole code necessary and brings nice savings in memory usage (about 370MB reduction at peak for my kernel configuration) and even BTF deduplication times (one second reduction, 23.7s -> 22.7s). Memory savings are due to avoiding pahole's own copy of "uncompressed" raw BTF data. Time reduction comes from faster string search and deduplication by relying on hashmap instead of BST used by pahole's own code. Consequently, these APIs are already tested on real-world complicated kernel BTF, but there is also pretty extensive selftest doing extra validations. Selftests in patch #3 add a set of generic ASSERT_{EQ,STREQ,ERR,OK} macros that are useful for writing shorter and less repretitive selftests. I decided to keep them local to that selftest for now, but if they prove to be useful in more contexts we should move them to test_progs.h. And few more (e.g., inequality tests) macros are probably necessary to have a more complete set.

BTF strings are used not just for names, they can be arbitrary strings used for CO-RE relocations, line/func infos, etc. Thus "name_by_offset" terminology is too specific and might be misleading. Instead, introduce btf__str_by_offset() API which uses generic string terminology.

Add APIs for appending new BTF types at the end of BTF object. Each BTF kind has either one API of the form btf__add_<kind>(). For types that have variable amount of additional items (struct/union, enum, func_proto, datasec), additional API is provided to emit each such item. E.g., for emitting a struct, one would use the following sequence of API calls: btf__add_struct(...); btf__add_field(...); ... btf__add_field(...); Each btf__add_field() will ensure that the last BTF type is of STRUCT or UNION kind and will automatically increment that type's vlen field. All the strings are provided as C strings (const char *), not a string offset. This significantly improves usability of BTF writer APIs. All such strings will be automatically appended to string section or existing string will be re-used, if such string was already added previously. Each API attempts to do all the reasonable validations, like enforcing non-empty names for entities with required names, proper value bounds, various bit offset restrictions, etc. Type ID validation is minimal because it's possible to emit a type that refers to type that will be emitted later, so libbpf has no way to enforce such cases. User must be careful to properly emit all the necessary types and specify type IDs that will be valid in the finally generated BTF. Each of btf__add_<kind>() APIs return new type ID on success or negative value on error. APIs like btf__add_field() that emit additional items return zero on success and negative value on error.

Alan Maguire says: ==================== This series attempts to provide a simple way for BPF programs (and in future other consumers) to utilize BPF Type Format (BTF) information to display kernel data structures in-kernel. The use case this functionality is applied to here is to support a snprintf()-like helper to copy a BTF representation of kernel data to a string, and a BPF seq file helper to display BTF data for an iterator. There is already support in kernel/bpf/btf.c for "show" functionality; the changes here generalize that support from seq-file specific verifier display to the more generic case and add another specific use case; rather than seq_printf()ing the show data, it is copied to a supplied string using a snprintf()-like function. Other future consumers of the show functionality could include a bpf_printk_btf() function which printk()ed the data instead. Oops messaging in particular would be an interesting application for such functionality. The above potential use case hints at a potential reply to a reasonable objection that such typed display should be solved by tracing programs, where the in-kernel tracing records data and the userspace program prints it out. While this is certainly the recommended approach for most cases, I believe having an in-kernel mechanism would be valuable also. Critically in BPF programs it greatly simplifies debugging and tracing of such data to invoking a simple helper. One challenge raised in an earlier iteration of this work - where the BTF printing was implemented as a printk() format specifier - was that the amount of data printed per printk() was large, and other format specifiers were far simpler. Here we sidestep that concern by printing components of the BTF representation as we go for the seq file case, and in the string case the snprintf()-like operation is intended to be a basis for perf event or ringbuf output. The reasons for avoiding bpf_trace_printk are that 1. bpf_trace_printk() strings are restricted in size and cannot display anything beyond trivial data structures; and 2. bpf_trace_printk() is for debugging purposes only. As Alexei suggested, a bpf_trace_puts() helper could solve this in the future but it still would be limited by the 1000 byte limit for traced strings. Default output for an sk_buff looks like this (zeroed fields are omitted): (struct sk_buff){ .transport_header = (__u16)65535, .mac_header = (__u16)65535, .end = (sk_buff_data_t)192, .head = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b, .data = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b, .truesize = (unsigned int)768, .users = (refcount_t){ .refs = (atomic_t){ .counter = (int)1, }, }, } Flags can modify aspects of output format; see patch 3 for more details. Changes since v6: - Updated safe data size to 32, object name size to 80. This increases the number of safe copies done, but performance is not a key goal here. WRT name size the largest type name length in bpf-next according to "pahole -s" is 64 bytes, so that still gives room for additional type qualifiers, parens etc within the name limit (Alexei, patch 2) - Remove inlines and converted as many #defines to functions as was possible. In a few cases - btf_show_type_value[s]() specifically - I left these as macros as btf_show_type_value[s]() prepends and appends format strings to the format specifier (in order to include indentation, delimiters etc so a macro makes that simpler (Alexei, patch 2) - Handle btf_resolve_size() error in btf_show_obj_safe() (Alexei, patch 2) - Removed clang loop unroll in BTF snprintf test (Alexei) - switched to using bpf_core_type_id_kernel(type) as suggested by Andrii, and Alexei noted that __builtin_btf_type_id(,1) should be used (patch 4) - Added skip logic if __builtin_btf_type_id is not available (patches 4,8) - Bumped limits on bpf iters to support printing larger structures (Alexei, patch 5) - Updated overflow bpf_iter tests to reflect new iter max size (patch 6) - Updated seq helper to use type id only (Alexei, patch 7) - Updated BTF task iter test to use task struct instead of struct fs_struct since new limits allow a task_struct to be displayed (patch 8) - Fixed E2BIG handling in iter task (Alexei, patch 8) Changes since v5: - Moved btf print prepare into patch 3, type show seq with flags into patch 2 (Alexei, patches 2,3) - Fixed build bot warnings around static declarations and printf attributes - Renamed functions to snprintf_btf/seq_printf_btf (Alexei, patches 3-6) Changes since v4: - Changed approach from a BPF trace event-centric design to one utilizing a snprintf()-like helper and an iter helper (Alexei, patches 3,5) - Added tests to verify BTF output (patch 4) - Added support to tests for verifying BTF type_id-based display as well as type name via __builtin_btf_type_id (Andrii, patch 4). - Augmented task iter tests to cover the BTF-based seq helper. Because a task_struct's BTF-based representation would overflow the PAGE_SIZE limit on iterator data, the "struct fs_struct" (task->fs) is displayed for each task instead (Alexei, patch 6). Changes since v3: - Moved to RFC since the approach is different (and bpf-next is closed) - Rather than using a printk() format specifier as the means of invoking BTF-enabled display, a dedicated BPF helper is used. This solves the issue of printk() having to output large amounts of data using a complex mechanism such as BTF traversal, but still provides a way for the display of such data to be achieved via BPF programs. Future work could include a bpf_printk_btf() function to invoke display via printk() where the elements of a data structure are printk()ed one at a time. Thanks to Petr Mladek, Andy Shevchenko and Rasmus Villemoes who took time to look at the earlier printk() format-specifier-focused version of this and provided feedback clarifying the problems with that approach. - Added trace id to the bpf_trace_printk events as a means of separating output from standard bpf_trace_printk() events, ensuring it can be easily parsed by the reader. - Added bpf_trace_btf() helper tests which do simple verification of the various display options. Changes since v2: - Alexei and Yonghong suggested it would be good to use probe_kernel_read() on to-be-shown data to ensure safety during operation. Safe copy via probe_kernel_read() to a buffer object in "struct btf_show" is used to support this. A few different approaches were explored including dynamic allocation and per-cpu buffers. The downside of dynamic allocation is that it would be done during BPF program execution for bpf_trace_printk()s using %pT format specifiers. The problem with per-cpu buffers is we'd have to manage preemption and since the display of an object occurs over an extended period and in printk context where we'd rather not change preemption status, it seemed tricky to manage buffer safety while considering preemption. The approach of utilizing stack buffer space via the "struct btf_show" seemed like the simplest approach. The stack size of the associated functions which have a "struct btf_show" on their stack to support show operation (btf_type_snprintf_show() and btf_type_seq_show()) stays under 500 bytes. The compromise here is the safe buffer we use is small - 256 bytes - and as a result multiple probe_kernel_read()s are needed for larger objects. Most objects of interest are smaller than this (e.g. "struct sk_buff" is 224 bytes), and while task_struct is a notable exception at ~8K, performance is not the priority for BTF-based display. (Alexei and Yonghong, patch 2). - safe buffer use is the default behaviour (and is mandatory for BPF) but unsafe display - meaning no safe copy is done and we operate on the object itself - is supported via a 'u' option. - pointers are prefixed with 0x for clarity (Alexei, patch 2) - added additional comments and explanations around BTF show code, especially around determining whether objects such zeroed. Also tried to comment safe object scheme used. (Yonghong, patch 2) - added late_initcall() to initialize vmlinux BTF so that it would not have to be initialized during printk operation (Alexei, patch 5) - removed CONFIG_BTF_PRINTF config option as it is not needed; CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF can be used to gate test behaviour and determining behaviour of type-based printk can be done via retrieval of BTF data; if it's not there BTF was unavailable or broken (Alexei, patches 4,6) - fix bpf_trace_printk test to use vmlinux.h and globals via skeleton infrastructure, removing need for perf events (Andrii, patch 8) Changes since v1: - changed format to be more drgn-like, rendering indented type info along with type names by default (Alexei) - zeroed values are omitted (Arnaldo) by default unless the '0' modifier is specified (Alexei) - added an option to print pointer values without obfuscation. The reason to do this is the sysctls controlling pointer display are likely to be irrelevant in many if not most tracing contexts. Some questions on this in the outstanding questions section below... - reworked printk format specifer so that we no longer rely on format %pT<type> but instead use a struct * which contains type information (Rasmus). This simplifies the printk parsing, makes use more dynamic and also allows specification by BTF id as well as name. - removed incorrect patch which tried to fix dereferencing of resolved BTF info for vmlinux; instead we skip modifiers for the relevant case (array element type determination) (Alexei). - fixed issues with negative snprintf format length (Rasmus) - added test cases for various data structure formats; base types, typedefs, structs, etc. - tests now iterate through all typedef, enum, struct and unions defined for vmlinux BTF and render a version of the target dummy value which is either all zeros or all 0xff values; the idea is this exercises the "skip if zero" and "print everything" cases. - added support in BPF for using the %pT format specifier in bpf_trace_printk() - added BPF tests which ensure %pT format specifier use works (Alexei). ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

A helper is added to support tracing kernel type information in BPF using the BPF Type Format (BTF). Its signature is long bpf_snprintf_btf(char *str, u32 str_size, struct btf_ptr *ptr, u32 btf_ptr_size, u64 flags); struct btf_ptr * specifies - a pointer to the data to be traced - the BTF id of the type of data pointed to - a flags field is provided for future use; these flags are not to be confused with the BTF_F_* flags below that control how the btf_ptr is displayed; the flags member of the struct btf_ptr may be used to disambiguate types in kernel versus module BTF, etc; the main distinction is the flags relate to the type and information needed in identifying it; not how it is displayed. For example a BPF program with a struct sk_buff *skb could do the following: static struct btf_ptr b = { }; b.ptr = skb; b.type_id = __builtin_btf_type_id(struct sk_buff, 1); bpf_snprintf_btf(str, sizeof(str), &b, sizeof(b), 0, 0); Default output looks like this: (struct sk_buff){ .transport_header = (__u16)65535, .mac_header = (__u16)65535, .end = (sk_buff_data_t)192, .head = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b, .data = (unsigned char *)0x000000007524fd8b, .truesize = (unsigned int)768, .users = (refcount_t){ .refs = (atomic_t){ .counter = (int)1, }, }, } Flags modifying display are as follows: - BTF_F_COMPACT: no formatting around type information - BTF_F_NONAME: no struct/union member names/types - BTF_F_PTR_RAW: show raw (unobfuscated) pointer values; equivalent to %px. - BTF_F_ZERO: show zero-valued struct/union members; they are not displayed by default Signed-off-by: Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/1601292670-1616-4-git-send-email-alan.maguire@oracle.com

generalize the "seq_show" seq file support in btf.c to support a generic show callback of which we support two instances; the current seq file show, and a show with snprintf() behaviour which instead writes the type data to a supplied string. Both classes of show function call btf_type_show() with different targets; the seq file or the string to be written. In the string case we need to track additional data - length left in string to write and length to return that we would have written (a la snprintf). By default show will display type information, field members and their types and values etc, and the information is indented based upon structure depth. Zeroed fields are omitted. Show however supports flags which modify its behaviour: BTF_SHOW_COMPACT - suppress newline/indent. BTF_SHOW_NONAME - suppress show of type and member names. BTF_SHOW_PTR_RAW - do not obfuscate pointer values. BTF_SHOW_UNSAFE - do not copy data to safe buffer before display. BTF_SHOW_ZERO - show zeroed values (by default they are not shown).
