The crash is fixed, it builds one step more, then fails at:

[root at PC-server-ldb bpf]# make CROSS_COMPILE=ppc-linux- ARCH=powerpc V=1
/root/gen_ldb/linux-powerpc/tools/testing/selftests/bpf/host-tools/sbin/bpftool gen skeleton

libbpf: elf: endianness mismatch in atomic_bounds.
Error: failed to open BPF object file: Endian mismatch

I'm cross-building on x86 for powerpc/32

[root at PC-server-ldb bpf]# file atomic_bounds.o
atomic_bounds.o: ELF 64-bit MSB relocatable, eBPF, version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped
