This adds libbpf support for BTF Var and DataSec kinds. Main point here is that libbpf needs to do some preparatory work before the whole BTF object can be loaded into the kernel, that is, fixing up of DataSec size taken from the ELF section size and non-static variable offset which needs to be taken from the ELF's string section. Upstream LLVM doesn't fix these up since at time of BTF emission it is too early in the compilation process thus this information isn't available yet, hence loader needs to take care of it. Note, deduplication handling has not been in the scope of this work and needs to be addressed in a future commit.

This is a mirror of bpf-next linux tree (https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next) bpf-next/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 <-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/if_xdp.h include/uapi/linux/netlink.h <-> bpf-next/tools/include/uapi/linux/netlink.h include/tools/libc_compat.h <-> bpf-next/tools/include/tools/libc_compat.h Other header files at this repo (include/linux/*.h) are reduced versions of their counterpart files at bpf-next/tools/include/linux/*.h to make compilation successful. Build ===== 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
