## Prerequisites
1. Install bpf-linker: `cargo install bpf-linker`
1. stable rust toolchains: `rustup toolchain install stable`
1. nightly rust toolchains: `rustup toolchain install nightly --component rust-src`
1. (if cross-compiling) rustup target: `rustup target add ${ARCH}-unknown-linux-musl`
1. (if cross-compiling) LLVM: (e.g.) `brew install llvm` (on macOS)
1. (if cross-compiling) C toolchain: (e.g.) [`brew install filosottile/musl-cross/musl-cross` ](https://github.com/FiloSottile/homebrew-musl-cross ) (on macOS)
1. bpf-linker: `cargo install bpf-linker` (`--no-default-features` on macOS)
## Build & Run

Cargo build scripts are used to automatically build the eBPF correctly and include it in the
program. When not using `xtask run` , eBPF code generation is skipped for a faster developer
experience; this compromise necessitates the use of `xtask` to actually build the eBPF.
## Cross-compiling on macOS
Cross compilation should work on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.
```bash
AYA_BUILD_EBPF=true \
CC=${ARCH}-linux-musl-gcc \
RUSTFLAGS="-C linker=${ARCH}-linux-musl-gcc" \
cargo build --package {{project-name}} --release --target=${ARCH}-unknown-linux-musl
```
The cross-compiled program `target/${ARCH}-unknown-linux-musl/release/{{project-name}}` can be
copied to a Linux server or VM and run there.
