libbpf: Make libbpf_version.h non-auto-generated

2021-09-13T22:36:47Z

Turn previously auto-generated libbpf_version.h header into a normal header file. This prevents various tricky Makefile integration issues, simplifies the overall build process, but also allows to further extend it with some more versioning-related APIs in the future. To prevent accidental out-of-sync versions as defined by libbpf.map and libbpf_version.h, Makefile checks their consistency at build time. Simultaneously with this change bump libbpf.map to v0.6. Also undo adding libbpf's output directory into include path for kernel/bpf/preload, bpftool, and resolve_btfids, which is not necessary because libbpf_version.h is just a normal header like any other.

libbpf: Stop using feature-detection Makefiles

2021-02-04T00:22:00Z

Libbpf's Makefile relies on Linux tools infrastructure's feature detection framework, but libbpf's needs are very modest: it detects the presence of libelf and libz, both of which are mandatory. So it doesn't benefit much from the framework, but pays significant costs in terms of maintainability and debugging experience, when something goes wrong. The other feature detector, testing for the presernce of minimal BPF API in system headers is long obsolete as well, providing no value. So stop using feature detection and just assume the presence of libelf and libz during build time. Worst case, user will get a clear and actionable linker error, e.g.: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lelf On the other hand, we completely bypass recurring issues various users reported over time with false negatives of feature detection (libelf or libz not being detected, while they are actually present in the system).

selftests/bpf: Bring back c++ include/link test

2019-12-05T01:57:55Z

Commit 5c26f9a78358 ("libbpf: Don't use cxx to test_libpf target") converted existing c++ test to c. We still want to include and link against libbpf from c++ code, so reinstate this test back, this time in a form of a selftest with a clear comment about its purpose. v2: * -lelf -> $(LDLIBS) (Andrii Nakryiko) Fixes: 5c26f9a78358 ("libbpf: Don't use cxx to test_libpf target") Signed-off-by: Stanislav Fomichev Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20191202215931.248178-1-sdf@google.com

libbpf: Move bpf_{helpers, helper_defs, endian, tracing}.h into libbpf

2019-10-08T21:16:03Z

Move bpf_helpers.h, bpf_tracing.h, and bpf_endian.h into libbpf. Move bpf_helper_defs.h generation into libbpf's Makefile. Ensure all those headers are installed along the other libbpf headers. Also, adjust selftests and samples include path to include libbpf now.
