[ Upstream commit d888eaac4fb1df30320bb1305a8f78efe86524c6 ]
When building bpf selftest with make -j, I'm randomly getting build failures such as this one:
In file included from progs/bpf_flow.c:19: [...]/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/tools/include/bpf/bpf_helpers.h:11:10: fatal error: 'bpf_helper_defs.h' file not found #include "bpf_helper_defs.h" ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The file that fails the build varies between runs but it's always in the progs/ subdir.
The reason is a missing make dependency on libbpf for the .o files in progs/. There was a dependency before commit 3ac2e20fba07e but that commit removed it to prevent unneeded rebuilds. However, that only works if libbpf has been built already; the 'wildcard' prerequisite does not trigger when there's no bpf_helper_defs.h generated yet.
Keep the libbpf as an order-only prerequisite to satisfy both goals. It is always built before the progs/ objects but it does not trigger unnecessary rebuilds by itself.
