Super cool, using the same idiom as the kernel and living in the kernel
sources has its advantages 8-)

But see below,

Why are you using this 'err' variable? It is only set here and at the
end, i.e. one write, one read. We could as well have that out: block
return -1 straight away.

Else we could do, see below

err = 0;

return err;

And delete the rest.

but I see, you used the same pattern in the first #ifdef HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
block :-)

Anyway, since we're fixing up that other case, we might as well
streamline this, please check the patch below.

So, that is what I'm applying, please holler if I introduced some
problem:
