[FYI PATCH 1/1] perf build: Stop using __weak bpf_map_create() to handle older libbpf versions

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu May 26 2022 - 11:07:52 EST


I'm carrying this one in my perf/core branch to fix the build with latest torvalds/master.

- Arnaldo

----

By adding a feature test for bpf_map_create() and providing a fallback if
it isn't present in older versions of libbpf.

This also fixes the build with torvalds/master at this point:

$ git log --oneline -5 torvalds/master
babf0bb978e3c9fc (torvalds/master) Merge tag 'xfs-5.19-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux

fbe86daca0ba878b Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi
$

Coping with:

$ git log --oneline -2 d16495a982324f75
d16495a982324f75 libbpf: remove bpf_create_map*() APIs
e2371b1632b1c61c libbpf: start 1.0 development cycle
$

As the __weak function fails to build as it calls the now removed
bpf_create_map() API.

Testing:

$ rpm -q libbpf-devel
libbpf-devel-0.4.0-2.fc35.x86_64
$
$ make -C tools/perf BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1 LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1 O=/tmp/build/perf install-bin
