bcc uses libbpf repo as a submodule. It brings in libbpf source
code and builds everything together to produce shared libraries.
With latest libbpf, I got the following errors:
/bin/ld: libbcc_bpf.so.0.10.0: version node not found for symbol xsk_umem__create@LIBBPF_0.0.2
/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [src/cc/libbcc_bpf.so.0.10.0] Error 1
In xsk.c, we have
asm(".symver xsk_umem__create_v0_0_2, xsk_umem__create@LIBBPF_0.0.2");
asm(".symver xsk_umem__create_v0_0_4, xsk_umem__create@@LIBBPF_0.0.4");
The linker thinks the built is for LIBBPF but cannot find proper version
LIBBPF_0.0.2/4, so emit errors.
I also confirmed that using libbpf.a to produce a shared library also
has issues:
-bash-4.4$ cat t.c
extern void *xsk_umem__create;
void * test() { return xsk_umem__create; }
-bash-4.4$ gcc -c -fPIC t.c
-bash-4.4$ gcc -shared t.o libbpf.a -o t.so
/bin/ld: t.so: version node not found for symbol xsk_umem__create@LIBBPF_0.0.2
/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
-bash-4.4$
Symbol versioning does happens in commonly used libraries, e.g., elfutils
and glibc. For static libraries, for a versioned symbol, the old definitions
will be ignored, and the symbol will be an alias to the latest definition.
For example, glibc sched_setaffinity is versioned.
-bash-4.4$ readelf -s /usr/lib64/libc.so.6 | grep sched_setaffinity
756: 000000000013d3d0 13 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 sched_setaffinity@GLIBC_2.3.3
757: 00000000000e2e70 455 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 sched_setaffinity@@GLIBC_2.3.4
1800: 0000000000000000 0 FILE LOCAL DEFAULT ABS sched_setaffinity.c
4228: 00000000000e2e70 455 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 13 __sched_setaffinity_new
4648: 000000000013d3d0 13 FUNC LOCAL DEFAULT 13 __sched_setaffinity_old
7338: 000000000013d3d0 13 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 sched_setaffinity@GLIBC_2
7380: 00000000000e2e70 455 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 sched_setaffinity@@GLIBC_
-bash-4.4$
For static library, the definition of sched_setaffinity aliases to the new definition.
-bash-4.4$ readelf -s /usr/lib64/libc.a | grep sched_setaffinity
File: /usr/lib64/libc.a(sched_setaffinity.o)
8: 0000000000000000 455 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 __sched_setaffinity_new
12: 0000000000000000 455 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 1 sched_setaffinity
For both elfutils and glibc, additional macros are used to control different handling
of symbol versioning w.r.t static and shared libraries.
For elfutils, the macro is SYMBOL_VERSIONING
(https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=blob;f=lib/eu-config.h).
For glibc, the macro is SHARED
(https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=include/shlib-compat.h;hb=refs/heads/master)
This patch used SHARED as the macro name. After this patch, the libbpf.a has
-bash-4.4$ readelf -s libbpf.a | grep xsk_umem__create
372: 0000000000017145 1190 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 xsk_umem__create_v0_0_4
405: 0000000000017145 1190 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 xsk_umem__create
499: 00000000000175eb 103 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 xsk_umem__create_v0_0_2
-bash-4.4$
No versioned symbols for xsk_umem__create.
The libbpf.a can be used to build a shared library succesfully.
-bash-4.4$ cat t.c
extern void *xsk_umem__create;
void * test() { return xsk_umem__create; }
-bash-4.4$ gcc -c -fPIC t.c
-bash-4.4$ gcc -shared t.o libbpf.a -o t.so
-bash-4.4$
