A compiler and runtime framework to help you build and distribute eBPF program easier.

eunomia-bpf is a dynamic loading library/runtime and a compile toolchain framework, aim at helping you build and distribute eBPF programs easier.

With eunnomia-bpf, you can:

• A library to simplify writing eBPF programs:
  • simplify building CO-RE¹ libbpf eBPF applications: write eBPF kernel code only and automatically exposing your data with perf event or ring buffer from kernel.
  • Automatically sample the data from hash maps and print hists in userspace.
  • Automatically generate and config command line arguments for eBPF programs.
  • You can writing the kernel part in both BCC and libbpf styles.
• Build eBPF programs with Wasm²: see Wasm-bpf project
  • Runtime, libraries and toolchains to write eBPF with Wasm in C/C++, Rust, Go...covering the use cases from tracing, networking, security.
• simplify distributing eBPF programs:
  • A tool for push, pull and run pre-compiled eBPF programs as OCI images in Wasm module
  • Run eBPF programs from cloud or URL within 1 line of bash without recompiling, kernel version and architecture independent.
  • Dynamically load eBPF programs with JSON config file or Wasm module.

For more information, see documents/introduction.md.

• example bpf programs: examples/bpftools

You can get pre-compiled eBPF programs running from the cloud to the kernel in 1 line of bash:

# download the release from https://github.com/eunomia-bpf/eunomia-bpf/releases/latest/download/ecli
$ wget https://aka.pw/bpf-ecli -O ecli && chmod +x ./ecli
$ sudo ./ecli run https://eunomia-bpf.github.io/eunomia-bpf/sigsnoop/package.json # simply run a pre-compiled ebpf code from a url

You can also use a server to manage and dynamically install eBPF programs.

Start the server:

$ sudo ./ecli-server
[2023-08-08 02:02:03.864009 +08:00] INFO [server/src/main.rs:95] Serving at 127.0.0.1:8527

Use the ecli to control the remote server and manage multiple eBPF programs:

$ ./ecli client start sigsnoop.json # start the program
1
$ ./ecli client log 1 # get the log of the program

02:05:59  79731 79730  17     0      which

For more information, see documents/src/ecli/server.md.

• Install the ecli tool for running eBPF program from the cloud:

  $ wget https://aka.pw/bpf-ecli -O ecli && chmod +x ./ecli
  $ ./ecli -h
  ecli subcommands, including run, push, pull, login, logout
  
  Usage: ecli-rs [PROG] [EXTRA_ARGS]... [COMMAND]
  
  Commands:
    run     run ebpf program
    client  Client operations
    push    
    pull    pull oci image from registry
    login   login to oci registry
    logout  logout from registry
    help    Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
  
  Arguments:
    [PROG]           Not preferred. Only for compatibility to older versions. Ebpf program URL or local path, set it `-` to read the program from stdin
    [EXTRA_ARGS]...  Not preferred. Only for compatibility to older versions. Extra args to the program; For wasm program, it will be passed directly to it; For JSON program, it will be passed to the generated argument parser
  
  Options:
    -h, --help  Print help
  ....

• Install the ecc compiler-toolchain for compiling eBPF kernel code to a config file or Wasm module(clang, llvm, and libclang should be installed for compiling):

  $ wget https://github.com/eunomia-bpf/eunomia-bpf/releases/latest/download/ecc && chmod +x ./ecc
  $ ./ecc -h
  eunomia-bpf compiler
  Usage: ecc [OPTIONS] <SOURCE_PATH> [EXPORT_EVENT_HEADER]
  ....

  or use the docker image for compile:

  # for x86_64 and aarch64
  docker run -it -v `pwd`/:/src/ ghcr.io/eunomia-bpf/ecc-`uname -m`:latest # compile with docker. `pwd` should contains *.bpf.c files and *.h files.

• build the compiler, runtime library and tools:

  see build for building details.

See examples for details about simple eBPF tools and eunomia-bpf library usage.

See github.com/eunomia-bpf/wasm-bpf/tree/main/examples for Wasm eBPF programs and examples.
