# bcc snap
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is an unconfined snap of the BPF Compiler Collection (BCC), a toolkit for
|
||
|
|
creating efficient kernel tracing and manipulation programs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First, install snapcraft, e.g. on Ubuntu:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo apt install snapcraft
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clone the bcc repo (if you haven't done so already) and create the snap:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone https://github.com/iovisor/bcc.git
|
||
|
|
cd snapcraft
|
||
|
|
make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note: running `make` just gets the version from the current bcc gito
|
||
|
|
repository and uses this in the snapcraft yaml file to version the bcc
|
||
|
|
snap. The Makefile basically runs snapcraft to snap up bcc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Install the snap by running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo snap install --devmode bcc_*.snap
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One may need to ensure the snap plugins are enabled for the snap using:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo snap connect bcc:mount-observe
|
||
|
|
sudo snap connect bcc:system-observe
|
||
|
|
sudo snap connect bcc:system-trace
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now run a bcc tool, for example, to run opensnoop use:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo bcc.opensnoop
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that this may fail to build and run if you do not have the kernel
|
||
|
|
headers installed or perhaps the kernel config is not set up correctly.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This snap has been tested using the mainly 4.8 and 4.9 kernels built
|
||
|
|
with the Ubuntu Yakkety and Zesty kernel configs as well as the default
|
||
|
|
Ubuntu 4.8 Yakkey and 4.9 Zesty kernels.
