AF_XDP support is deprecated in libbpf since v0.7.0 [1]. The libxdp library now provides the functionality which once was in libbpf and which the AF_XDP PMD relies on. This commit updates the AF_XDP meson build to use the libxdp library if a version >= v1.2.2 is available. If it is not available, only versions of libbpf prior to v0.7.0 are allowed, as they still contain the required AF_XDP functionality.
libbpf still remains a dependency even if libxdp is present, as we use libbpf APIs for program loading. The minimum required kernel version for libxdp for use with AF_XDP is v5.3. For the library to be fully-featured, a kernel v5.10 or newer is recommended. The full compatibility information can be found in the libxdp README. v1.2.2 of libxdp includes an important fix required for linking with DPDK which is why this version or greater is required. Meson uses pkg-config to verify the version of libxdp on the system, so it is necessary that the library is discoverable using pkg-config in order for the PMD to use it. To verify this, you can run: pkg-config --modversion libxdp [1] https://github.com/libbpf/libbpf/commit/277846bc6c15 Signed-off-by: Ciara Loftus <ciara.lof...@intel.com> --- v2: * Set minimum libxdp version at v1.2.2 RFC -> v1: * Set minimum libxdp version at v1.3.0 * Don't provide alternative to discovery via pkg-config * Add missing newline to end of file --- doc/guides/nics/af_xdp.rst | 6 ++-- doc/guides/rel_notes/release_22_03.rst | 4 +++ drivers/net/af_xdp/compat.h | 4 +++ drivers/net/af_xdp/meson.build | 39 +++++++++++++++++++++----- drivers/net/af_xdp/rte_eth_af_xdp.c | 1 - 5 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/guides/nics/af_xdp.rst b/doc/guides/nics/af_xdp.rst index c9d0e1ad6c..db02ea1984 100644 --- a/doc/guides/nics/af_xdp.rst +++ b/doc/guides/nics/af_xdp.rst @@ -43,9 +43,7 @@ Prerequisites This is a Linux-specific PMD, thus the following prerequisites apply: * A Linux Kernel (version > v4.18) with XDP sockets configuration enabled; -* libbpf (within kernel version > v5.1-rc4) with latest af_xdp support installed, - User can install libbpf via `make install_lib` && `make install_headers` in - <kernel src tree>/tools/lib/bpf; +* Both libxdp >=v1.2.2 and libbpf libraries installed, or, libbpf <=v0.6.0 * A Kernel bound interface to attach to; * For need_wakeup feature, it requires kernel version later than v5.3-rc1; * For PMD zero copy, it requires kernel version later than v5.4-rc1; @@ -143,4 +141,4 @@ Limitations NAPI context from a watchdog timer instead of from softirqs.
