[PATCH 1/2] tools lib bpf: Provide wrapper for strerror_r to build in !_GNU_SOURCE systems

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Sep 18 2018 - 11:38:03 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

Same problem that got fixed in a similar fashion in tools/perf/ in
c8b5f2c96d1b ("tools: Introduce str_error_r()"), fix it in the same
way, licensing needs to be sorted out to libbpf to use libapi, so,
for this simple case, just get the same wrapper in tools/lib/bpf.

This makes libbpf and its users (bpftool, selftests, perf) to build
again in Alpine Linux 3.[45678] and edge.
