bpftool: Add LLVM as default library for disassembling JIT-ed programs
To disassemble instructions for JIT-ed programs, bpftool has relied on the libbfd library. This has been problematic in the past: libbfd's interface is not meant to be stable and has changed several times. For building bpftool, we have to detect how the libbfd version on the system behaves, which is why we have to handle features disassembler-four-args and disassembler-init-styled in the Makefile. When it comes to shipping bpftool, this has also caused issues with several distribution maintainers unwilling to support the feature (see for example Debian's page for binutils-dev, which ships libbfd: "Note that building Debian packages which depend on the shared libbfd is Not Allowed." [0]). For these reasons, we add support for LLVM as an alternative to libbfd for disassembling instructions of JIT-ed programs. Thanks to the preparation work in the previous commits, it's easy to add the library by passing the relevant compilation options in the Makefile, and by adding the functions for setting up the LLVM disassembler in file jit_disasm.c. The LLVM disassembler requires the LLVM development package (usually llvm-dev or llvm-devel). The expectation is that the interface for this disassembler will be more stable. There is a note in LLVM's Developer Policy [1] stating that the stability for the C API is "best effort" and not guaranteed, but at least there is some effort to keep compatibility when possible (which hasn't really been the case for libbfd so far). Furthermore, the Debian page for the related LLVM package does not caution against linking to the lib, as binutils-dev page does. Naturally, the display of disassembled instructions comes with a few minor differences. Here is a sample output with libbfd (already supported before this patch): # bpftool prog dump jited id 56 bpf_prog_6deef7357e7b4530: 0: nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 5: xchg %ax,%ax 7: push %rbp 8: mov %rsp,%rbp b: push %rbx c: push %r13 e: push %r14 10: mov %rdi,%rbx 13: movzwq 0xb4(%rbx),%r13 1b: xor %r14d,%r14d 1e: or $0x2,%r14d 22: mov $0x1,%eax 27: cmp $0x2,%r14 2b: jne 0x000000000000002f 2d: xor %eax,%eax 2f: pop %r14 31: pop %r13 33: pop %rbx 34: leave 35: ret LLVM supports several variants that we could set when initialising the disassembler, for example with: LLVMSetDisasmOptions(*ctx, LLVMDisassembler_Option_AsmPrinterVariant); but the default printer is used for now. Here is the output with LLVM: # bpftool prog dump jited id 56 bpf_prog_6deef7357e7b4530: 0: nopl (%rax,%rax) 5: nop 7: pushq %rbp 8: movq %rsp, %rbp b: pushq %rbx c: pushq %r13 e: pushq %r14 10: movq %rdi, %rbx 13: movzwq 180(%rbx), %r13 1b: xorl %r14d, %r14d 1e: orl $2, %r14d 22: movl $1, %eax 27: cmpq $2, %r14 2b: jne 0x2f 2d: xorl %eax, %eax 2f: popq %r14 31: popq %r13 33: popq %rbx 34: leave 35: retq The LLVM disassembler comes as the default choice, with libbfd as a fall-back. Of course, we could replace libbfd entirely and avoid supporting two different libraries. One reason for keeping libbfd is that, right now, it works well, we have all we need in terms of features detection in the Makefile, so it provides a fallback for disassembling JIT-ed programs if libbfd is installed but LLVM is not. The other motivation is that libbfd supports nfp instruction for Netronome's SmartNICs and can be used to disassemble offloaded programs, something that LLVM cannot do. If libbfd's interface breaks again in the future, we might reconsider keeping support for it.
