See README.rst in selftests/bpf:
Kernel function call test and Clang version
===========================================
Some selftests (e.g. kfunc_call and bpf_tcp_ca) require a LLVM support
to generate extern function in BTF. It was introduced in `Clang 13`__.
Without it, the error from compiling bpf selftests looks like:
.. code-block:: console
libbpf: failed to find BTF for extern 'tcp_slow_start' [25] section: -2
