[RFC PATCH v9 03/50] bpf tools: Introduce 'bpf' library to tools

From: Wang Nan
Date: Fri Jun 26 2015 - 10:31:28 EST


This is the first patch of libbpf. The goal of libbpf is to create a
standard way for accessing eBPF object files. This patch creates
'Makefile' and 'Build' for it, allows 'make' to build libbpf.a and
libbpf.so, 'make install' to put them into proper directories.
Most part of Makefile is borrowed from traceevent.

Before building, it checks the existence of libelf in Makefile, and deny
to build if not found. Instead of throwing an error if libelf not found,
the error raises in a phony target "elfdep". This design is to ensure
'make clean' still workable even if libelf is not found.

Kernel BPF API is also checked. "bpfdep" is used for it.
