Greg,

c733c19fda7b ("libbpf: Fix BTF data layout checks and allow empty
BTF") should either be dropped, or fixed like the below:

diff --git a/tools/lib/bpf/btf.c b/tools/lib/bpf/btf.c
index 3380aadb7465..41daf0fa95b9 100644
--- a/tools/lib/bpf/btf.c
+++ b/tools/lib/bpf/btf.c
@@ -101,7 +101,7 @@ static int btf_parse_hdr(struct btf *btf)
}

if (meta_left < hdr->str_off + hdr->str_len) {
- pr_debug("Invalid BTF total size:%u\n", btf->raw_size);
+ pr_debug("Invalid BTF total size:%u\n", btf->data_size);
return -EINVAL;
}

Not sure which one you'd prefer. Both will fix perf build.
