libbpf: auto-resolve programs/libraries when necessary for uprobes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
bpf_program__attach_uprobe_opts() requires a binary_path argument
specifying binary to instrument.  Supporting simply specifying
"libc.so.6" or "foo" should be possible too.

Library search checks LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then /usr/lib64, /usr/lib.
This allows users to run BPF programs prefixed with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path2/lib while still searching standard locations.
Similarly for non .so files, we check PATH and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.

Path determination will be useful for auto-attach of BPF uprobe programs
using SEC() definition.
