The next example scripts need the definition for the BPF functions, i.e.
things like BPF_FUNC_probe_read, and in time will require lots of other
definitions found in uapi/linux/bpf.h, so include it from the bpf.h file
included from the eBPF scripts build with clang via '-e bpf_script.c'
like in this example:
$ tail -8 tools/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
#include <bpf.h>
int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
{
return sec == 5;
}
license(GPL);
$
That 'bpf.h' include in the 5sec.c eBPF example will come from a set of
header files crafted for building eBPF objects, that in a end-user
system will come from:
/usr/lib/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h
And will include <uapi/linux/bpf.h> either from the place where the
kernel was built, or from a kernel-devel rpm package like:
-working-directory /lib/modules/4.17.9-100.fc27.x86_64/build
That is set up by tools/perf/util/llvm-utils.c, and can be overriden
by setting the 'kbuild-dir' variable in the "llvm" ~/.perfconfig file,
like:
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
kbuild-dir = /home/foo/git/build/linux
This usually doesn't need any change, just documenting here my findings
while working with this code.
In the future we may want to instead just use what is in
/usr/include/linux/bpf.h, that comes from the UAPI provided from the
kernel sources, for now, to avoid getting the kernel's non-UAPI
"linux/bpf.h" file, that will cause clang to fail and is not what we
want anyway (no BPF function definitions, etc), do it explicitely by
asking for "uapi/linux/bpf.h".
