[PATCH 3/3] bpftool: Allow to link libbpf dynamically

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently we support only static linking with kernel's libbpf
(tools/lib/bpf). This patch adds LIBBPF_DYNAMIC compile variable
that triggers libbpf detection and bpf dynamic linking:

  $ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool make LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1

If libbpf is not installed, build (with LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1) stops with:

  $ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1
    Auto-detecting system features:
    ...                        libbfd: [ on  ]
    ...        disassembler-four-args: [ on  ]
    ...                          zlib: [ on  ]
    ...                        libbpf: [ OFF ]

  Makefile:102: *** Error: libbpf-devel is missing, please install it.  Stop.

Adding specific bpftool's libbpf check for libbpf_netlink_open (LIBBPF_0.0.6)
which is the latest we need for bpftool at the moment.

Adding LIBBPF_DIR compile variable to allow linking with
libbpf installed into specific directory:

  $ make -C tools/lib/bpf/ prefix=/tmp/libbpf/ install_lib install_headers
  $ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool/ LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 LIBBPF_DIR=/tmp/libbpf/

It might be needed to clean build tree first because features
framework does not detect the change properly:

  $ make -C tools/build/feature clean
  $ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool/ clean
