Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-05-24 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Björn Töpel cleans up AF_XDP (removes rebind, explicit cache alignment from uapi, etc). 2) David Ahern adds mtu checks to bpf_ipv{4,6}_fib_lookup() helpers. 3) Jesper Dangaard Brouer adds bulking support to ndo_xdp_xmit. 4) Jiong Wang adds support for indirect and arithmetic shifts to NFP 5) Martin KaFai Lau cleans up BTF uapi and makes the btf_header extensible. 6) Mathieu Xhonneux adds an End.BPF action to seg6local with BPF helpers allowing to edit/grow/shrink a SRH and apply on a packet generic SRv6 actions. 7) Sandipan Das adds support for bpf2bpf function calls in ppc64 JIT. 8) Yonghong Song adds BPF_TASK_FD_QUERY command for introspection of tracing events. 9) other misc fixes from Gustavo A. R. Silva, Sirio Balmelli, John Fastabend, and Magnus Karlsson ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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
