Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3]  Assume libbpf 1.0+
Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2023 17:01:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230116010115.490713-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

libbpf 1.0 was a major change in API. Perf has partially supported
older libbpf's but an implementation may be:
..
       pr_err("%s: not support, update libbpf\n", __func__);
       return -ENOTSUP;
..

Rather than build a binary that would fail at runtime it is
preferrential just to build libbpf statically and link against
that. The static version is in the kernel tools tree and newer than
1.0.

These patches change the libbpf test to only pass when at least
version 1.0 is installed, then remove the conditional build and
feature logic.

The issue is discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230106151320.619514-1-irogers@google.com/
perf bpf:

A variant of this fix was added to Linux 6.2 in:
"perf bpf: Avoid build breakage with libbpf < 0.8.0 + LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1"
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y71+eh00Ju7WeEFX@kernel.org/
This change goes further in removing logic that is now no longer
necessary.

v2. Rebase now that breakage fix patch is in linus/master.

Ian Rogers (3):
  tools build: Pass libbpf feature only if libbpf 1.0+
  perf build: Remove libbpf pre-1.0 feature tests
  perf bpf: Remove pre libbpf 1.0 conditional logic
