[PATCH bpf-next 00/11] samples: bpf: improve/fix cross-compilation

From: Ivan Khoronzhuk
Date: Tue Sep 10 2019 - 06:39:50 EST


This series contains mainly fixes/improvements for cross-compilation
but not only, tested for arm, arm64, but intended for any arch.
Also verified on native build (not cross compilation) for x86_64
and arm.

Initial RFC link:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/8/29/1665

Prev. version:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg597823.html

Besides the patches given here, the RFC also contains couple patches
related to llvm clang
arm: include: asm: swab: mask rev16 instruction for clang
arm: include: asm: unified: mask .syntax unified for clang
They are necessarily to verify arm build.

The change touches not only cross-compilation and can have impact on
other archs and build environments, so might be good idea to verify
it in order to add appropriate changes, some warn options could be
tuned also.

All is tasted on x86-64 with clang installed (has to be built containing
targets for arm, arm64..., see llvm -v, usually it's present already)

Instructions to test native on x86_64
=================================================
Native build on x86_64 is done in usual way and shouldn't have difference
except HOSTCC is now printed as CC wile building the samples.

Instructions to test cross compilation on arm64
=================================================
#Toolchain used for test:
gcc version 8.3.0
(GNU Toolchain for the A-profile Architecture 8.3-2019.03 (arm-rel-8.36))

# Get some arm64 FS, containing at least libelf

ti-processor-sdk-linux-am65xx-evm-06.00.00.07-Linux-x86-Install.bin

# Install this binary to some dir, say "sdk".
# Configure kernel (use defconfig as no matter), but clean everything
# before.
make ARCH=arm64 -C tools/ clean
make ARCH=arm64 -C samples/bpf clean
make ARCH=arm64 clean
make ARCH=arm64 defconfig

# The kernel version used in sdk doesn't correspond to checked one,
# but for this verification only headers need to be syched,
# so install them:
make ARCH=arm64 headers_install

# or on SDK if need keep them in sync (not necessarily to verify):

make ARCH=arm64 INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/../sdk/\
ti-processor-sdk-linux-am65xx-evm-06.00.00.07/linux-devkit/sysroots/\
aarch64-linux/usr headers_install

Instructions to test cross compilation on arm
=================================================
#Toolchains used for test:

Based on bpf-next/master

v2..v1:
- restructured patches order
- split "samples: bpf: Makefile: base progs build on Makefile.progs"
to make change more readable. It added couple nice extra patches.
- removed redundant patch:
"samples: bpf: Makefile: remove target for native build"
- added fix:
"samples: bpf: makefile: fix cookie_uid_helper_example obj build"
- limited -D option filter only for arm
- improved comments
- added couple instructions to verify cross compilation for arm and
arm64 arches based on TI am57xx and am65xx sdks.
- corrected include a little order
