Installing libbpf
- 1st: install the libelf library
sudo apt-get install -y libelf-dev
- 2nd: get and install the libbpf related files
export DESTDIR=<installation dir> export PREFIX="" git clone https://github.com/libbpf/libbpf.git cd libbpf cd src make install
- 3rd: get and install the libxpd related files
export DESTDIR=<installation dir> export PREFIX="" git clone https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-tools.git cd xdp-tools
- Follow the instructions in xdp-tools/README.md file for compilation. Note: there is no need to do a git submodule on libbpf.
Instructions are at https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-tutorial , go to the setup_dependencies.org link at https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-tutorial/blob/master/setup_dependencies.org
This tells us to
// (to get bpftool) sudo apt install linux-tools-common linux-tools-generic sudo apt install clang llvm libpcap-dev build-essential sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) // you will need to use clang 11 for this to work so install and set commands to this version sudo apt install clang-11 clang-format-11 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang clang /usr/bin/clang-11 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang++ clang++ /usr/bin/clang++-11 100 sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/clang-format clang-format /usr/bin/clang-format-11 100 // check to see if this worked by doing ls -al /usr/bin/clang* ls -al /etc/alternatives/clang* // now one can do ./configure
- Clone the repository
git clone --recurse-submodules -b v1.50 --depth 1 --shallow-submodules https://github.com/grpc/grpc
- Build the package
