[PATCH v3 2/3] samples/bpf: fix broken vmlinux path for VMLINUX_BTF
From: Jinghao Jia
Date: Mon Feb 03 2025 - 03:56:27 EST
Commit 13b25489b6f8 ("kbuild: change working directory to external
module directory with M=") changed kbuild working directory of bpf
sample programs to samples/bpf, which broke the vmlinux path for
VMLINUX_BTF, as the Makefiles assume the current work directory to be
the kernel output directory and use a relative path (i.e., ./vmlinux):
Makefile:316: *** Cannot find a vmlinux for VMLINUX_BTF at any of " /path/to/linux/samples/bpf/vmlinux", build the kernel or set VMLINUX_BTF like "VMLINUX_BTF=/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux" or VMLINUX_H variable. Stop.
Correctly refer to the kernel output directory using $(objtree).
