Subject: [PATCH v1 1/2] perf bpf-event: Use libbpf version rather than feature check
Date: Thu,  2 Oct 2025 18:23:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251003012349.2396685-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

The feature check guarded the -DHAVE_LIBBPF_STRINGS_SUPPORT is
unnecessary as it is sufficient and easier to use the
LIBBPF_CURRENT_VERSION_GEQ macro.
