From: Viktor Malik on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/merge_requests/2749#note_1617578830 Argh, compiler/linker arguments in BPF Makefiles are sometimes a mess. But, since the error occurs when linking `libbpf.a` for `samples/bpf/bpftool`, let's take the same approach as we do for selftests and reuse the bpftool that we've already built. This will require one more patch to `samples/bpf/Makefile`: ```diff diff --git a/samples/bpf/Makefile b/samples/bpf/Makefile index 4ccf4236031c..ce9c2eea82d4 100644 --- a/samples/bpf/Makefile +++ b/samples/bpf/Makefile @@ -253,8 +253,9 @@ $(LIBBPF): $(wildcard $(LIBBPF_SRC)/*.[ch] $(LIBBPF_SRC)/Makefile) | $(LIBBPF_OU BPFTOOLDIR := $(TOOLS_PATH)/bpf/bpftool BPFTOOL_OUTPUT := $(abspath $(BPF_SAMPLES_PATH))/bpftool -BPFTOOL := $(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT)/bootstrap/bpftool -$(BPFTOOL): $(wildcard $(BPFTOOLDIR)/*.[ch] $(BPFTOOLDIR)/Makefile) | $(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT) +DEFAULT_BPFTOOL := $(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT)/bootstrap/bpftool +BPFTOOL ?= $(DEFAULT_BPFTOOL) +$(DEFAULT_BPFTOOL): $(wildcard $(BPFTOOLDIR)/*.[ch] $(BPFTOOLDIR)/Makefile) | $(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT) $(MAKE) -C $(BPFTOOLDIR) srctree=$(BPF_SAMPLES_PATH)/../../ \ OUTPUT=$(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT)/ bootstrap ``` and the specfile change: ```suggestion:-0+0 %{make} %{?_smp_mflags} TPROGS_USER_CFLAGS="%{?build_hostcflags}" TPROGS_USER_LDFLAGS="%{?build_ldflags}" BPFTOOL="$(pwd)/tools/bpf/bpftool/bpftool" ARCH=$Arch V=1 M=samples/bpf/ VMLINUX_H="${RPM_VMLINUX_H}" || true ``` This way, the samples successfully build for me. Unfortunately, rpmbuild fails later when stripping the BPF programs `samples/bpf/*_kern.o` (another binutils problem?), but we should be able to resolve that by just not stripping them. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
