Subject: libbpf build broken on musl libc (Alpine Linux)

Hi guys,

	Ingo updated tip/perf/core and this made me notice that perf is
not building on systems using !glibc, like Alpine Linux, that uses musl
libc. This ends up as:

This is handled in tools/perf/ by using tools/lib/str_error_r.c, that
was introduced with the cset at the end of this message.

After lunch I'll work on a patch to fix this, 

Thanks,

commit c8b5f2c96d1bf6cefcbe12f67dce0b892fe20512

    tools: Introduce str_error_r()
    
    The tools so far have been using the strerror_r() GNU variant, that
    returns a string, be it the buffer passed or something else.
    
    But that, besides being tricky in cases where we expect that the
    function using strerror_r() returns the error formatted in a provided
    buffer (we have to check if it returned something else and copy that
    instead), breaks the build on systems not using glibc, like Alpine
    Linux, where musl libc is used.
    
    So, introduce yet another wrapper, str_error_r(), that has the GNU
    interface, but uses the portable XSI variant of strerror_r(), so that
    users rest asured that the provided buffer is used and it is what is
    returned.
