Since we need it to resolve the AIO symbols, otherwise we fail with: $ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-all.make.output /usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccEqrj36.o: undefined reference to symbol 'aio_return64@@GLIBC_2.2.5' /usr/bin/ld: //usr/lib64/librt.so.1: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status $ When we added the aio support in 'perf record' only the test-libaio.bin target got the -lrt, i.e. the feature detection slow path. Fix it.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
