Subject: Building perf with BUILD_BPF_SKEL=1
Hi guys,
At some point we should switch to building with BPF skels by
default as there are many features that are implemented that way in
perf:

Since I'm finally using the Firefly ARM board the fine folks at
Librecomputer gave us at Kernel Recipes, I'm noticing issues as I go on
adding the components, for instance:
/bin/sh: 2: llvm-strip: not found
make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:1136: /tmp/build/perf/util/bpf_skel/.tmp/bperf_follower.bpf.o] Error 127

So this is just me taking notes, feel free to fix it if you want ;-)

perf should check for that and give per-distro hints on how to overcome
those, for instance, on ubuntu I had to:
acme@...-rk3399-pc:~/git/perf$ dpkg -L llvm-14 | grep strip

First this was run with -e
~acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c, and as
I have:
root@...-rk3399-pc:~# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
dump-obj = true
clang-opt = -g
[trace]
show_zeros = no
show_duration = no
no_inherit = yes
args_alignment = 40
root@...-rk3399-pc:~#
Then that 'dump-obj' ends up keeping the .o BPF bytecode saved:
root@...-rk3399-pc:~# file ~acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, eBPF, version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped
root@...-rk3399-pc:~#
And I can reuse it to skip compiling it using clang (version 14 on this
ubuntu 22.04.1 system).
Now trying some of those bpf skels:
