| eBPF sample programs
 | |
| ====================
 | |
| 
 | |
| This directory contains a test stubs, verifier test-suite and examples
 | |
| for using eBPF. The examples use libbpf from tools/lib/bpf.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Build dependencies
 | |
| ==================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Compiling requires having installed:
 | |
|  * clang >= version 3.4.0
 | |
|  * llvm >= version 3.7.1
 | |
| 
 | |
| Note that LLVM's tool 'llc' must support target 'bpf', list version
 | |
| and supported targets with command: ``llc --version``
 | |
| 
 | |
| Kernel headers
 | |
| --------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are usually dependencies to header files of the current kernel.
 | |
| To avoid installing devel kernel headers system wide, as a normal
 | |
| user, simply call::
 | |
| 
 | |
|  make headers_install
 | |
| 
 | |
| This will creates a local "usr/include" directory in the git/build top
 | |
| level directory, that the make system automatically pickup first.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Compiling
 | |
| =========
 | |
| 
 | |
| For building the BPF samples, issue the below command from the kernel
 | |
| top level directory::
 | |
| 
 | |
|  make samples/bpf/
 | |
| 
 | |
| Do notice the "/" slash after the directory name.
 | |
| 
 | |
| It is also possible to call make from this directory.  This will just
 | |
| hide the the invocation of make as above with the appended "/".
 | |
| 
 | |
| Manually compiling LLVM with 'bpf' support
 | |
| ------------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| Since version 3.7.0, LLVM adds a proper LLVM backend target for the
 | |
| BPF bytecode architecture.
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default llvm will build all non-experimental backends including bpf.
 | |
| To generate a smaller llc binary one can use::
 | |
| 
 | |
|  -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="BPF"
 | |
| 
 | |
| Quick sniplet for manually compiling LLVM and clang
 | |
| (build dependencies are cmake and gcc-c++)::
 | |
| 
 | |
|  $ git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
 | |
|  $ cd llvm/tools
 | |
|  $ git clone --depth 1 http://llvm.org/git/clang.git
 | |
|  $ cd ..; mkdir build; cd build
 | |
|  $ cmake .. -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="BPF;X86"
 | |
|  $ make -j $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)
 | |
| 
 | |
| It is also possible to point make to the newly compiled 'llc' or
 | |
| 'clang' command via redefining LLC or CLANG on the make command line::
 | |
| 
 | |
|  make samples/bpf/ LLC=~/git/llvm/build/bin/llc CLANG=~/git/llvm/build/bin/clang
 | |
| 
 | |
| Cross compiling samples
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| In order to cross-compile, say for arm64 targets, export CROSS_COMPILE and ARCH
 | |
| environment variables before calling make. This will direct make to build
 | |
| samples for the cross target.
 | |
| 
 | |
| export ARCH=arm64
 | |
| export CROSS_COMPILE="aarch64-linux-gnu-"
 | |
| make samples/bpf/ LLC=~/git/llvm/build/bin/llc CLANG=~/git/llvm/build/bin/clang
 |
