Hi all,

After merging the bpf-next tree, today's linux-next build (perf) failed
like this:

util/bpf-event.c: In function 'btf__load_from_kernel_by_id':
util/bpf-event.c:27:8: error: 'btf__get_from_id' is deprecated: libbpf v0.6+: use btf__load_from_kernel_by_id instead [-Werror=deprecated-declarations]

Caused by commit

  0b46b7550560 ("libbpf: Add LIBBPF_DEPRECATED_SINCE macro for scheduling API deprecations")

Should be fixed by [0], when applied to perf tree. Thanks for reporting!

I have used the bpf-next tree from next-20210913 for today.
