I believe the order of the libraries is relevant, and it seems the static libbpf should be passed before the dynamic libs. Here I could fix the build with the static library on my setup by prepending the library path instead, like this: LIBS := $(LIBBPF) $(LIBS) On the plus side, all build attempts from tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_bpftool_build.sh pass successfully on my setup with dynamic linking from your branch. > +endif > + > include $(wildcard $(OUTPUT)*.d) > > all: $(OUTPUT)bpftool Thanks, Quentin
