    While testing this I noticed that the perf binary got huge, can't this
    be done in some other way, i.e. using dynamic library?

    [root@jouet ~]# size /tmp/perf
    text data bss dec hex filename
    75333688 1421584 23962176 100717448 600d388 /tmp/perf
    [root@jouet ~]#

    I've built it with this:

    make LIBCLANGLLVM=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin

    the resulting binary:

    [acme@jouet linux]$
    [acme@jouet linux]$ ls -la ~/bin/perf
    -rwxr-xr-x. 2 acme acme 131689136 Dec 2 12:31 /home/acme/bin/perf
    [acme@jouet linux]$ ls -lah ~/bin/perf
    -rwxr-xr-x. 2 acme acme 126M Dec 2 12:31 /home/acme/bin/perf
    [acme@jouet linux]$

    Huge, after stripping it:

    [acme@jouet linux]$ ls -la /tmp/perf
    -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 76759056 Dec 2 12:33 /tmp/perf
    [acme@jouet linux]$ ls -lah /tmp/perf
    -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 74M Dec 2 12:33 /tmp/perf
    [acme@jouet linux]$

    Still huge :-\

    Ok, this needs explicitely enabling, but then, for distros, if we want
    this feature to be enabled...

    I think we should try to help distributions to ship a basic perf binary
    in a base package that doesn't brings many libraries, like was done for
    the gtk UI, and also we should start providing RPM specfiles and debian
    (and others, hopefully contributed by other people with interest in
    other distros), to help in getting a sane package split, i.e. want
    llvm/bpf? install the 'perf-ebpf' rpm/deb/whatever package and incur in
    these costs.

    But being a n00b on llvm/clang libraries, etc, my question goes back to:
    can we have this using a libllvm.so or libclang.so dynamic libraries?

    See this, out of hand :-\ Tell me I'm doing something wrong :-)
