Thinking about this requirement again... Do you think it would be worth
adding (as a follow-up) a feature check on the availability of clang
with global data support to bpftool's Makefile? So that we could compile
out program profiling if clang is not present or does not support it.
Just like libbfd support is optional already.
I'm asking mostly because a number of distributions now package bpftool,
and e.g. Ubuntu builds it from kernel source when creating its
linux-images and linux-tools-* packages. And I am pretty sure the build
environment does not have latest clang/LLVM, but it would be great to
remain able to build bpftool.
Best regards,
Quentin
