Ouch, so probably we need just to reintroduce that one
tools/build/feature/test-llvm.cpp file.
Building perf these days ends up using bpftool, and the end result as
noticed with me testing perf, perf trace with bpf, etc didn't change, so
I didn't notice :-\
And:
ifeq ($(feature-llvm),1)
# If LLVM is available, use it for JIT disassembly
CFLAGS += -DHAVE_LLVM_SUPPORT
LLVM_CONFIG_LIB_COMPONENTS := mcdisassembler all-targets
CFLAGS += $(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) --cflags --libs $(LLVM_CONFIG_LIB_COMPONENTS))
LIBS += $(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) --libs $(LLVM_CONFIG_LIB_COMPONENTS))
ifeq ($(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) --shared-mode),static)
LIBS += $(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) --system-libs $(LLVM_CONFIG_LIB_COMPONENTS))
LIBS += -lstdc++
endif
LDFLAGS += $(shell $(LLVM_CONFIG) --ldflags)
else
# Fall back on libbfd
ifeq ($(feature-libbfd),1)
LIBS += -lbfd -ldl -lopcodes
else ifeq ($(feature-libbfd-liberty),1)
LIBS += -lbfd -ldl -lopcodes -liberty
else ifeq ($(feature-libbfd-liberty-z),1)
LIBS += -lbfd -ldl -lopcodes -liberty -lz
endif
# If one of the above feature combinations is set, we support libbfd
ifneq ($(filter -lbfd,$(LIBS)),)
CFLAGS += -DHAVE_LIBBFD_SUPPORT
# Libbfd interface changed over time, figure out what we need
ifeq ($(feature-disassembler-four-args), 1)
CFLAGS += -DDISASM_FOUR_ARGS_SIGNATURE
endif
ifeq ($(feature-disassembler-init-styled), 1)
CFLAGS += -DDISASM_INIT_STYLED
endif
endif
endif
And there is a fallback to using binutils, so most people ended up not
noticing.
I wonder how to improve the current situation to detect these kinds of
problems in the future, i.e. how to notice that some file needed by some
Makefile, etc got removed or that some feature test fails because some
change in the test .c files makes them fail and thus activates fallbacks
like the one above :-\
So if I just get this back:
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools-next]$ cat tools/build/feature/test-llvm.cpp
// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
#include "llvm/Support/ManagedStatic.h"
#include "llvm/Support/raw_ostream.h"
#define NUM_VERSION (((LLVM_VERSION_MAJOR) << 16) + (LLVM_VERSION_MINOR << 8) + LLVM_VERSION_PATCH)
#if NUM_VERSION < 0x030900
# error "LLVM version too low"
#endif
int main()
{
llvm::errs() << "Hello World!\n";
llvm::llvm_shutdown();
return 0;
}
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools-next]$
And install the llvm-devel package then it back working:
⬢[acme@...lbox perf-tools-next]$ make -C tools/bpf/bpftool

I'll get this merged in my perf-tools-fixes-for-v6.6 that I'll submit
tomorrow to Linus, thanks for reporting!
I'll add your:
Reported-by: Manu Bretelle <chantr4@...il.com>
And:
Fixes: 56b11a2126bf2f42 ("perf bpf: Remove support for embedding clang for compiling BPF events (-e foo.c)")
Ok?
