The following errors are showing up when compiling rtla with clang:

clang: warning: optimization flag '-ffat-lto-objects' is not supported [-Wignored-optimization-argument]
For what it's worth, this flag is supported in clang 17.0.0 and newer:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/610fc5cbcc8b68879c562f6458608afe...
Good! still, I am getting this error on fedora, with this clang version:
bristot@x1:~/src/git/linux/tools/tracing/rtla$ clang --version clang version 17.0.6 (Fedora 17.0.6-1.fc39) Target: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /usr/bin
:-(
But if it is not critical, just dropping the flag like you have done here rather than conditionally supporting it is probably easier.
Yeah, I will drop it for now, and keep monitoring.
Thanks Natan! -- Daniel
