Subject: [RFC PATCH 10/20] tools/build: Add a feature test for bpftool-btf
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 11:05:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831090524.106845-11-gmonaco@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831090524.106845-1-gmonaco@redhat.com>

RV can run bpf monitors and also build them, only the latter requires
the vmlinux.h from bpftool btf.

Add a feature so that RV can be built with BPF support without having to
build in-tree BPF monitors if not supported on the system.
