compile error while running make in example/c about libbpf-bootstrap

[ANOLASC]

Clang 10 is pretty old. Try upgrading to something newer. Also please check that your Clang supports BPF target.

Make success by upgrading clang to 15. Thx.

You can either update your LLVM or apply the following diff:

diff --git a/examples/c/usdt.bpf.c b/examples/c/usdt.bpf.c

Applied it. Now have a new error

@ANOLASC, please try to repull libbpf-bootstrap (we've updated libbpf and other stuff meanwhile) and try again? You shouldn't need BPF_USDT_HAS_BPF_COOKIE anymore, btw.

Please also make sure you are using a decently recent LLVM/Clang (as recent as you can). Please also report what Clang version you are using. Thanks.

Still got the same error issue-1313523553.

I use apt to install clang.

clang --version

clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1
