[PATCH bpf] libbpf: Fix build on read-only filesystems
From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Sun Dec 22 2019 - 22:05:42 EST
I got the following error when I tried to build perf on a read-only
filesystem with O=dir option.
$ cd /some/where/ro/linux/tools/perf
$ make O=$HOME/build/perf
...
CC /home/namhyung/build/perf/lib.o
/bin/sh: bpf_helper_defs.h: Read-only file system
make[3]: *** [Makefile:184: bpf_helper_defs.h] Error 1
make[2]: *** [Makefile.perf:778: /home/namhyung/build/perf/libbpf.a] Error 2
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
LD /home/namhyung/build/perf/libperf-in.o
AR /home/namhyung/build/perf/libperf.a
PERF_VERSION = 5.4.0
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:225: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2
It was becaused bpf_helper_defs.h was generated in current directory.
Move it to OUTPUT directory.
