In linux-next tree compiling the perf tool with additional make flags EXTRA_CFLAGS="-Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -O2" causes a compiler error. It is the warning 'variable may be used uninitialized' which is treated as error: I compile it using a FEDORA 28 installation, my gcc compiler version: gcc (GCC) 8.0.1 20180324 (Red Hat 8.0.1-0.20). The file that causes the error is tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.c.

README
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. 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.
