      selftests/bpf: Fix pyperf180 compilation failure with clang18 · 100888fb
      Yonghong Song authored
      With latest clang18 (main branch of llvm-project repo), when building bpf selftests,
          [~/work/bpf-next (master)]$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf LLVM=1 -j
      
      The following compilation error happens:
          fatal error: error in backend: Branch target out of insn range
          ...
          Stack dump:
          0.      Program arguments: clang -g -Wall -Werror -D__TARGET_ARCH_x86 -mlittle-endian

      The compilation failure only happens to cpu=v2 and cpu=v3. cpu=v4 is okay
      since cpu=v4 supports 32-bit branch target offset.
      
      The above failure is due to upstream llvm patch [1] where some inlining behavior
      are changed in clang18.
      
      To workaround the issue, previously all 180 loop iterations are fully unrolled.
      The bpf macro __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ (implemented in clang18 recently) is used to avoid
      unrolling changes if cpu=v4. If __BPF_CPU_VERSION__ is not available and the
      compiler is clang18, the unrollng amount is unconditionally reduced.
