[FEATURE] Build options to disable libbpf and Linux kernel interoperability #175

Closed agentzh closed 1 month ago

agentzh commented 6 months ago

Currently, the bpftime build always includes libbpf and Linux kernel interoperability, which we don't need in our use cases. It would be nice to have a build option to exclude these things to have much smaller binaries (and also smaller images in the global shm?).

I heard that it might also make it easier to port bpftime to other operating systems like macOS and *BSD (or even Windows?).

@yunwei37 @Officeyutong should we try to create bpftime without making libbpf? Should I add this option?
