Subject: [for-next][PATCH 1/9] tools/build: Use SYSTEM_BPFTOOL for system bpftool
Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2025 10:55:50 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250326145603.801808440@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250326145549.978154551@goodmis.org

From: Tomas Glozar <tglozar@redhat.com>

The feature test for system bpftool uses BPFTOOL as the variable to set
its path, defaulting to just "bpftool" if not set by the user.

This conflicts with selftests and a few other utilities, which expect
BPFTOOL to be set to the in-tree bpftool path by default. For example,
bpftool selftests fail to build:

$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf/
make: Entering directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'

make: *** No rule to make target 'bpftool', needed by '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include/vmlinux.h'.  Stop.
make: Leaving directory '/home/tglozar/dev/linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf'

Fix the problem by renaming the variable used for system bpftool from
BPFTOOL to SYSTEM_BPFTOOL, so that the new usage does not conflict with
the existing one of BPFTOOL.
