I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong (missing include?), or this
is a genuine error
Seems like your clang/llvm version might be too old.
I'm using clang 10.0.1
Ah, okay, I see. Would this diff do the trick for you?
Yes! Now it compiles without any problems!
Great, thx, I'll cook proper fix and check with clang6 as Yonghong mentioned.
Am I the only one confused here?... Yonghong said it should be
supported as early as clang 6, Yaniv is using Clang 10 and is still
getting this error. Let's figure out what's the problem before adding
unnecessary checks.
I think it's not the clang_major check that helped, rather __bpf__
check. So please hold off on the fix, let's get to the bottom of this
first.
I don't see confusion here (maybe other than which minimal clang/llvm version
libbpf should support). If we do `#if __clang_major__ >= 6 && defined(__bpf__)`
for the final patch, then this means that user passed clang -target bpf and
the min supported version for inline assembly was there, otherwise we fall back
to bpf_tail_call. In Yaniv's case, he probably had native target with -emit-llvm
and then used llc invocation.
