The -lelf flag needs to be specified *after* the object files, otherwise
the output library produced by some compilers doesn't contain a link to
libelf.so:
(Example from Debian testing run on Travis.)
$ ldd libelf.so
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffcbfda9000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f75f8d24000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f75f8f0f000)
Linking against such library then produces 'undefined reference to ...'
errors unless the target links against libelf as well. After this commit
the built library references the libelf library correctly:
$ ldd libbpf.so
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc821f1000)
libelf.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libelf.so.1 (0x00007f70ea3ec000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f70ea22c000)
libz.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 (0x00007f70ea20f000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f70ea433000)
