Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf build: Require at least clang 16.0.6 to build BPF
skeletons
Howard reported problems using perf features that use BPF:
perf $ clang -v
Debian clang version 15.0.6
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /bin
Found candidate GCC installation: /bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12
Selected GCC installation: /bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12
Candidate multilib: .;@m64
Selected multilib: .;@m64
perf $ ./perf trace -e write --max-events=1
libbpf: prog 'sys_enter_rename': BPF program load failed: Permission denied
libbpf: prog 'sys_enter_rename': -- BEGIN PROG LOAD LOG --
0: R1=ctx() R10=fp0
But it works with:
perf $ clang -v
Debian clang version 16.0.6 (15~deb12u1)
Target: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /bin
Found candidate GCC installation: /bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12
Selected GCC installation: /bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/12
Candidate multilib: .;@m64
Selected multilib: .;@m64
perf $ ./perf trace -e write --max-events=1
0.000 ( 0.009 ms): gmain/1448 write(fd: 4, buf: \1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0, count: 8) = 8 (kworker/0:0-eve)
perf $
So lets make that the required version, if you happen to have a slightly
older version where this work, please report so that we can adjust the
minimum required version.
