![]() We recently changed bpftool's Makefile to make it install libbpf's headers locally instead of pulling them from the source directory of the library. Although bpftool needs two versions of libbpf, a "regular" one and a "bootstrap" version, we would only install headers for the regular libbpf build. Given that this build always occurs before the bootstrap build when building bpftool, this is enough to ensure that the bootstrap bpftool will have access to the headers exported through the regular libbpf build. However, this did not account for the case when we only want the bootstrap version of bpftool, through the "bootstrap" target. For example, perf needs the bootstrap version only, to generate BPF skeletons. In that case, when are the headers installed? For some time, the issue has been masked, because we had a step (the installation of headers internal to libbpf) which would depend on the regular build of libbpf and hence trigger the export of the headers, just for the sake of creating a directory. But this changed with commit |
