When i use the command 'make M=samples/bpf' to compile samples/bpf code in ubuntu 22.04, the error info occured: Cannot find a vmlinux for VMLINUX_BTF at any of " /home/ubuntu/code/linux/vmlinux", build the kernel or set VMLINUX_BTF or VMLINUX_H variable Others often encounter this kind of issue, new kernel has the vmlinux, so we can set the path in error info which seems more intuitive, like: Cannot find a vmlinux for VMLINUX_BTF at any of " /home/ubuntu/code/linux/vmlinux", buiild the kernel or set VMLINUX_BTF like "VMLINUX_BTF=/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux" or VMLINUX_H variable Signed-off-by: Tao Chen <chen.dylane@xxxxxxxxx> --- samples/bpf/Makefile | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/samples/bpf/Makefile b/samples/bpf/Makefile index 4ccf4236031c..6fbe9345eb6a 100644 --- a/samples/bpf/Makefile +++ b/samples/bpf/Makefile @@ -326,7 +326,7 @@ $(obj)/vmlinux.h: $(VMLINUX_BTF) $(BPFTOOL) ifeq ($(VMLINUX_H),) ifeq ($(VMLINUX_BTF),) $(error Cannot find a vmlinux for VMLINUX_BTF at any of "$(VMLINUX_BTF_PATHS)",\ - build the kernel or set VMLINUX_BTF or VMLINUX_H variable) + build the kernel or set VMLINUX_BTF like "VMLINUX_BTF=/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux" or VMLINUX_H variable) endif $(Q)$(BPFTOOL) btf dump file $(VMLINUX_BTF) format c > $@ else -- 2.34.1
