The rationale was that bpftool's features are loosely tied to BPF features in the kernel, and that we could defer versioning to the kernel repository itself. But this versioning scheme is confusing today, because a bpftool binary should be able to work with both older and newer kernels, even if some of its recent features won't be available on older systems. Furthermore, if bpftool is ported to other systems in the future, keeping a Linux-based version number is not a good option. Looking at other options, we could either have a totally independent scheme for bpftool, or we could align it on libbpf's version number (with an offset on the major version number, to avoid going backwards). The latter comes with a few drawbacks: - We may want bpftool releases in-between two libbpf versions. We can always append pre-release numbers to distinguish versions, although those won't look as "official" as something with a proper release number. But at the same time, having bpftool with version numbers that look "official" hasn't really been an issue so far. - If no new feature lands in bpftool for some time, we may move from e.g. 6.7.0 to 6.8.0 when libbpf levels up and have two different versions which are in fact the same. - Following libbpf's versioning scheme sounds better than kernel's, but ultimately it doesn't make too much sense either, because even though bpftool uses the lib a lot, its behaviour is not that much conditioned by the internal evolution of the library (or by new APIs that it may not use). Having an independent versioning scheme solves the above, but at the cost of heavier maintenance. Developers will likely forget to increase the numbers when adding features or bug fixes, and we would take the risk of having to send occasional "catch-up" patches just to update the version number. Based on these considerations, this patch aligns bpftool's version number on libbpf's. This is not a perfect solution, but 1) it's certainly an improvement over the current scheme, 2) the issues raised above are all minor at the moment, and 3) we can still move to an independent scheme in the future if we realise we need it. Given that libbpf is currently at version 0.7.0, and bpftool, before this patch, was at 5.16, we use an offset of 6 for the major version, bumping bpftool to 6.7.0. Libbpf does not export its patch number; leave bpftool's patch number at 0 for now. It remains possible to manually override the version number by setting BPFTOOL_VERSION when calling make.
