If any of them pulls in some x86-specific stuff, you would get this problem. Try to minimize the amount of includes you have there, maybe the issue will go away. If not, one other way would be to generate vmlinux.h for your specific kernel build. It will have memory layout of all the structs identical to what you get from kernel headers. Then you can replace all those includes with a single #include "vmlinux.h". You can disable CO-RE part with #define BPF_NO_PRESERVE_ACCESS_INDEX before vmlinux.h is included. But I'm a bit puzzled how your approach is going to work without CO-RE if you ever intend to run your program on more than one build of the kernel. Different kernel builds/versions might have different memory layouts of the structs you are relying on, so you'd need to compile them for each kernel build separately. So it's either CO-RE or on-the-host compilation (what BCC is doing). And if you are moving away from BCC, but not adopting CO-RE, I'm not sure how you are going to deal with that issue. > > This is still WIP (the move to libbpf), and libbpf should be added as > a submodule to the project root > > > > Unfortunately, CO-RE is not (yet) an option. > > > I'm currently making the move from bcc to libbpf, and our application > > > needs to support kernel 4.14, and work on all environments. > > > > Kernel version is not a big problem, it's vmlinux BTF availability > > that could be a problem. vmlinux BTF can be added into any version of > > kernel with pahole -J, post factum, but that assumes you have some > > control over how kernels are built and distributed, of course. > > > > > > > > > [...]
