2024-08-05tools build: Correct bpf fixdep dependenciesBrian Norris1-0/+1
The dependencies in tools/lib/bpf/Makefile are incorrect. Before we recurse to build $(BPF_IN_STATIC), we need to build its 'fixdep' executable. I can't use the usual shortcut from Makefile.include: <target>: <sources> fixdep because its 'fixdep' target relies on $(OUTPUT), and $(OUTPUT) differs in the parent 'make' versus the child 'make' -- so I imitate it via open-coding. I tweak a few $(MAKE) invocations while I'm at it, because 1. I'm adding a new recursive make; and 2. these recursive 'make's print spurious lines about files that are "up to date" (which isn't normally a feature in Kbuild subtargets) or "jobserver not available" (see [1]) I also need to tweak the assignment of the OUTPUT variable, so that relative path builds work. For example, for 'make tools/lib/bpf', OUTPUT is unset, and is usually treated as "cwd" -- but recursive make will change cwd and so OUTPUT has a new meaning. For consistency, I ensure OUTPUT is always an absolute path. And $(Q) gets a backup definition in tools/build/Makefile.include, because Makefile.include is sometimes included without tools/build/Makefile, so the "quiet command" stuff doesn't actually work consistently without it. After this change, top-level builds result in an empty grep result from: $ grep 'cannot find fixdep' $(find tools/ -name '*.cmd') [1] https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/MAKE-Variable.html If we're not using $(MAKE) directly, then we need to use more '+'.

2021-09-13libbpf: Make libbpf_version.h non-auto-generatedAndrii Nakryiko1-1/+0
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.

2021-02-04libbpf: Stop using feature-detection MakefilesAndrii Nakryiko1-1/+0
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).

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 <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <[email protected]> Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko <[email protected]> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]
2019-10-08libbpf: Move bpf_{helpers, helper_defs, endian, tracing}.h into libbpfAndrii Nakryiko1-0/+1
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.

2015-08-07bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library and add bpf feature checkWang Nan1-0/+2
This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates 'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories. Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent. Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found, the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure 'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found. Because libbpf requires 'kern_version' field set for 'union bpf_attr' (bpfdep" is used for that dependency), Kernel BPF API is also checked by intruducing a new feature check 'bpf' into tools/build/feature, which checks the existence and version of linux/bpf.h. When building libbpf, it searches that file from include/uapi/linux in kernel source tree (controlled by FEATURE_CHECK_CFLAGS-bpf). Since it searches kernel source tree it reside, installing of newest kernel headers is not required, except we are trying to port these files to an old kernel. To avoid checking that file when perf building, the newly introduced 'bpf' feature check doesn't added into FEATURE_TESTS and FEATURE_DISPLAY by default in tools/build/Makefile.feature, but added into libbpf's specific.
