v0.4.8-libbpf-1.2.0

What's Changed

This software release includes several changes and improvements. The most significant change is the bump to version 1.2.0 of the libbpf library. The changes in this release include:

• The libbpfgo library now calls bpf_object__open_mem directly from Go instead of doing so via a C wrapper, which creates two new helper functions in libbpfgo.h: bpf_object_open_opts_new() and bpf_object_open_opts_free(). This change was made by @geyslan.
• The logger now passes raw libbpf print output to the consumer, letting them decide how to format it, and the callback log level has been fixed. This logger improvement was made by @geyslan.
• Several build improvements were made, including fixing the compile_commands.json generation (#316), turning clang into the default compiler (#317), and removing gcc-multilib as a dependency (#321).
• Various linting chores and updates were made, including using clang-format-12 (#320), adding the revive linter (#320), and including all C and H files in the fmt command (#320).
• The selftests should be used also as samples (#320), and the selftests no longer depend on UAPI headers (#321).
• All package dependencies have been updated in the Go module (#323).

v0.4.4-libbpf-1.0.1

Fixes included:

• fix: re-introduce memory bumping (#265)

v0.4.3-libbpf-1.0.1

This is a very small release in which the main purpose is to (finally) fully separate the helpers module from libbpfgo by removing dependence on libbpfgo within helpers. This also includes an awesome new feature for setting global variables.

What's Changed

• Redefine BPFProgType constants and remove libbpfgo import by @grantseltzer in #263
• Add InitGlobalVariable to support setting global variables in bpf code by @mozillazg in #258

Full Changelog: v0.4.2-libbpf-1.0.1...v0.4.3-libbpf-1.0.1

v0.4.2-libbpf-1.0.1

This is a patch release updating the libbpf submodule and intended support for libbpf v1.0.1 from the previous release (v0.4.1-libbpf-1.0.0) which used libbpf v1.0.0. There are otherwise no changes.

v0.4.1-libbpf-1.0.0

v0.4.1-libbpf-1.0.0

This release of libbpfgo is meant to used with libbpf v1.0.0

Breaking Changes

• The package github.com/aquasecurity/libbpfgo/helpers is now contained in its own module. You can now upgrade it as a dependency independently of libbpfgo.
  You may run into errors when running go mod tidy that can be fixed by clearing your go cache or explicitly go geting the latest version of it.
  • Each release will cut new releases of both the helpers and libbpfgo module, but upgrading one does not require you to upgrade the other.

New features

• Introduced a vagrantfile for running tests in a working VM environment (#237)

Improvements/Fixes

• The value of errno is now properly saved before calls to printf (#256 - Thanks @mozillazg)
• CGO code is now in its own header file (#257 - Thanks @mozillazg!)
• Fixed an issue with how cgo handled bitmap padding optimizations in libbpf (#246)
• Optimized retrieving kernel symbols from symbol table, now caches by address and name (#241)
