The 'if' keyword is a define that expands to complex code when
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES is selected, which causes a 'perf test LLVM'
failure like:
$ ./perf test LLVM
35: LLVM search and compile :
35.1: Basic BPF llvm compile : Ok
35.2: kbuild searching : Ok
35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation: FAILED!
35.4: Compile source for BPF relocation : Skip
The only affected test case is bpf-script-test-prologue.c
because it uses kernel headers and has 'if' inside.
This patch undefines 'if' to make it passes perf test.
More detailed analysis from a message in this thread, also by Wang:
The problem is caused by following relocation information:
$ readelf -a ./llvmsubtest3
...

...
Relocation section '.relfunc=null_lseek file->f_mode offset orig' at
offset 0x490 contains 4 entries:

So I think the failure is because you enabled CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES.
I can reproduce your buggy result by selecting
CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES in my kbuild:
$ ./perf test LLVM
35: LLVM search and compile :
35.1: Basic BPF llvm compile : Ok
35.2: kbuild searching : Ok
35.3: Compile source for BPF prologue generation: FAILED!
35.4: Compile source for BPF relocation : Skip
Simply undef CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES in clang opts not working
because it is introduced by "#include <uapi/linux/fs.h>", which override
cmdline options. So I think the best way is to undefine 'if' inside BPF
script.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
