Compiling and installing UDP-notif collector

Dependencies

This project uses autotools and gcc to compile and package the library.

On Ubuntu:

$ sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool make automake gcc pkg-config

On Centos (tested on Centos 8):

$ sudo yum install autoconf libtool make automake pkgconf

Optional Dependencies

Using tcmalloc (Optional)

This project can use tcmalloc for memory management allowing better performance.

On Ubuntu:

$ sudo apt-get install libgoogle-perftools-dev

On Centos (tested on Centos 8):

$ sudo yum install gperftools gperftools-devel

Installing

To install the library on a linux machine.

$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure       # See ./configure --help for options
$ make
$ make install      # Usually needs sudo permissions
$ ./export.sh       # Optional: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH with /usr/local/lib in global variable to allow linking process

Configure options

There are some custom ./configure options :

  • --with-examples: compile examples directory. Not compiled by default.
  • --with-ebpf-example: compile eBPF example. Not compiled by default. It check eBPF dependencies too.
  • --with-test: compile testdirectory. Not compiled by default.
  • --with-pkgconfigdir=[/own_path/pkgconfig]: overwrite pkgconfig directory to install .pc file [default: ${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig]
  • --enable-tcmalloc: enable compilation with tcmalloc instead of native malloc. tcmalloc should be installed first.
  • --with-linux=[/own_path/linux/src]: linux source code necesary for eBPF compilation [default: /usr/src/linux]. (On Ubuntu use /usr/src/-generic version)

Uninstalling

$ make uninstall    # Usually need sudo permissions

You should remove the export of the lib in your bashrc manually yourself to fully remove the lib.
