Subject: [PATCH bpf-next] bpftool: Remove zlib feature test from Makefile
Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2022 21:04:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220705200456.285943-1-quentin@isovalent.com> (raw)
The feature test to detect the availability of zlib in bpftool's
Makefile does not bring much. The library is not optional: it may or may
not be required along libbfd for disassembling instructions, but in any
case it is necessary to build feature.o or even libbpf, on which bpftool
depends.
If we remove the feature test, we lose the nicely formatted error
message, but we get a compiler error about "zlib.h: No such file or
directory", which is equally informative. Let's get rid of the test.
