didn't work for me

Also missing libpfm4-dev libtraceevent-dev pkg-config

With sudo apt install libpfm4-dev libtraceevent-dev pkg-config the compilation error issue get solved.

With sudo apt install libpfm4-dev libtraceevent-dev pkg-config the compilation error issue get solved.

Had the same issue as crucinal1, and that solution worked.

With sudo apt install libpfm4-dev libtraceevent-dev pkg-config the compilation error issue get solved.

For people seeing errors, try make -j8 WERROR=0, as the kernel automatically turns warning into errors. This stops that behaviour.
