libbpf: add bpf_object__load_xattr() API function to pass log_level libbpf was recently made aware of the log_level attribute for programs, used to specify the level of information expected to be dumped by the verifier. Function bpf_prog_load_xattr() got support for this log_level parameter. But some applications using libbpf rely on another function to load programs, bpf_object__load(), which does accept any parameter for log level. Create an API function based on bpf_object__load(), but accepting an "attr" object as a parameter. Then add a log_level field to that object, so that applications calling the new bpf_object__load_xattr() can pick the desired log level. v3: - Rewrite commit log. v2: - We are in a new cycle, bump libbpf extraversion number.

This is a mirror of bpf-next linux tree's tools/lib/bpf
directory plus its supporting header files.
The following files will by sync'ed with bpf-next repo:
src/
<-> bpf-next/tools/lib/bpf/
include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h
<-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h
include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
<-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
include/uapi/linux/btf.h
<-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/btf.h
include/uapi/linux/if_link.h
<-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/if_link.h
include/uapi/linux/if_xdp.h

Other header files at this repo (include/linux/*.h
) are reduced versions of their counterpart files at bpf-next's tools/include/linux/*.h
to make compilation successful.
libelf is an internal dependency of libbpf and thus it is required to link against and must be installed on the system for applications to work. pkg-config is used by default to find libelf, and the program called can be overridden with PKG_CONFIG
. If using pkg-config
at build time is not desired, it can be disabled by setting NO_PKG_CONFIG=1
when calling make.
To build both static libbpf.a and shared libbpf.so:
$ cd src
$ make
To build only static libbpf.a library in directory build/ and install them together with libbpf headers in a staging directory root/:
$ cd src $ mkdir build root $ BUILD_STATIC_ONLY=y OBJDIR=build DESTDIR=root make install
To build both static libbpf.a and shared libbpf.so against a custom libelf dependency installed in /build/root/ and install them together with libbpf headers in a build directory /build/root/:
$ cd src $ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/build/root/lib64/pkgconfig DESTDIR=/build/root make install
To integrate libbpf into a project which uses Meson building system define [wrap-git]
file in subprojects
folder. To add libbpf dependency to the parent parent project, e.g. for libbpf_static_dep:
libbpf_obj = subproject('libbpf', required : true) libbpf_static_dep = libbpf_proj.get_variable('libbpf_static_dep')
To validate changes to meson.build
$ python3 meson.py build $ ninja -C build/
To install headers, libs and pkgconfig
$ cd build
$ ninja install
