So just request bootstrap, but not try to share libbpf between samples/bpf and bpftool? Especially that is this "samples", such complexity in Makefile seems like a micro-optimization. > >> + $(MAKE) -C $(BPFTOOLDIR) srctree=$(BPF_SAMPLES_PATH)/../../ \ > >> + OUTPUT=$(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT)/ bootstrap > >> +endif > >> > >> $(LIBBPF_OUTPUT) $(BPFTOOL_OUTPUT): > >> $(call msg,MKDIR,$@) > > > > . > >
