I said:

Because, as clang says: "error: no such file or directory: '/root/./foo.c'"

It doesn't exists :-)

Right, probably leaving the .c enabler to be the last one, together with
a "hello_bpf.c" that we can use in testing it is best.

Excellent idea, you could even save the intermediary .o file and use it
in another test :-)

Sometimes we can't straight away test some infrastructure because the
patch at hand is just glue, that will later be used by a tool, 'perf
record', say, in those cases we can test this glue by using it in a
'perf test' entry.
