Daniel Borkmann 96a8eb1eee bpf: fix samples to add fake KBUILD_MODNAME
Some of the sample files are causing issues when they are loaded with tc
and cls_bpf, meaning tc bails out while trying to parse the resulting ELF
file as program/map/etc sections are not present, which can be easily
spotted with readelf(1).

Currently, BPF samples are including some of the kernel headers and mid
term we should change them to refrain from this, really. When dynamic
debugging is enabled, we bail out due to undeclared KBUILD_MODNAME, which
is easily overlooked in the build as clang spills this along with other
noisy warnings from various header includes, and llc still generates an
ELF file with mentioned characteristics. For just playing around with BPF
examples, this can be a bit of a hurdle to take.

Just add a fake KBUILD_MODNAME as a band-aid to fix the issue, same is
done in xdp*_kern samples already.

Fixes: 6afb1e28b8 ("samples/bpf: Add tunnel set/get tests.")

README.rst

eBPF sample programs
====================

This directory contains a mini eBPF library, test stubs, verifier
test-suite and examples for using eBPF.

Build dependencies
==================

Compiling requires having installed:
 * clang >= version 3.4.0
 * llvm >= version 3.7.1

Note that LLVM's tool 'llc' must support target 'bpf', list version
and supported targets with command: ``llc --version``

Kernel headers
--------------

There are usually dependencies to header files of the current kernel.
To avoid installing devel kernel headers system wide, as a normal
user, simply call::

 make headers_install

This will creates a local "usr/include" directory in the git/build top
level directory, that the make system automatically pickup first.

Compiling
=========

For building the BPF samples, issue the below command from the kernel
top level directory::

 make samples/bpf/

Do notice the "/" slash after the directory name.

It is also possible to call make from this directory.  This will just
hide the the invocation of make as above with the appended "/".

Manually compiling LLVM with 'bpf' support
------------------------------------------

Since version 3.7.0, LLVM adds a proper LLVM backend target for the
BPF bytecode architecture.

By default llvm will build all non-experimental backends including bpf.
To generate a smaller llc binary one can use::

 -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="BPF"

Quick sniplet for manually compiling LLVM and clang
(build dependencies are cmake and gcc-c++)::

 $ git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
 $ cd llvm/tools
 $ git clone --depth 1 http://llvm.org/git/clang.git
 $ cd ..; mkdir build; cd build
 $ cmake .. -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="BPF;X86"
 $ make -j $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN)

It is also possible to point make to the newly compiled 'llc' or
'clang' command via redefining LLC or CLANG on the make command line::

 make samples/bpf/ LLC=~/git/llvm/build/bin/llc CLANG=~/git/llvm/build/bin/clang
