When I was building bcc using LLVM18 on Ubuntu, I encountered various issues. The system version I was using is as follows:
lsb_release -a

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
Release:        22.04

At first, I made modifications to CMakeLists.txt based on the results of executing cmake ... I added

cmake_policy(set CMP0075 NEW)

within the if logic that checks for versions greater than 3.12.0, in order to avoid the CMP0075 issue. Additionally, to output the results of certain options, I added the following print statements at the end:

message(STATUS "C Compiler: ${CMAKE_C_COMPILER}")
message(STATUS "C++ Compiler: ${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}")
message(STATUS "Linker: ${CMAKE_LINKER}")
message(STATUS "C Compiler Flags: ${CMAKE_C_FLAGS}")
message(STATUS "C++ Compiler Flags: ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS}")
message(STATUS "Linker Flags: ${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS}")

And the result output of cmake .. is:

After these operations, I performed the cmake ..and make commands according to the documentation, but ultimately encountered the following error:

Based on the error message, I suspected there might be a conflict in the libraries (I don't have much knowledge of C/C++ itself, this is just a simple guess based on google and ChatGPT). Therefore, I modified the CMakeLists.txt file, making changes to the following parts:

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -Wall -stdlib=libc++")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -Wall ${CXX_ISYSTEM_DIRS} -stdlib=libc++")

It would then report a massive number of undefined reference errors at the stage of [ 39%] Linking CXX executable CGroupTest.For example:

usr/bin/ld: ../../src/cc/libbcc.a(bpf_module.cc.o): in function `ebpf::BPFModule::dump_ir(llvm::Module&)':
bpf_module.cc:(.text+0x112d): undefined reference to `llvm::PassBuilder::PassBuilder(llvm::TargetMachine*, llvm::PipelineTuningOptions, std::__1::optional<llvm::PGOOptions>, llvm::PassInstrumentationCallbacks*)'
/usr/bin/ld: bpf_module.cc:(.text+0x1203): undefined reference to `llvm::PrintModulePass::PrintModulePass(llvm::raw_ostream&, std::__1::basic_string<char, std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char> > const&, bool, bool)'

bpf_module.cc:(.text+0x39e9): undefined reference to `llvm::EngineBuilder::EngineBuilder(std::__1::unique_ptr<llvm::Module, std::__1::default_delete<llvm::Module> >)'

The above is just a part of the entire error output, which is approximately 30,000 lines long and mostly consists of various undefined reference errors. What confuses me is that the previous cmake output already shows that the choosenlinker is ld.lld, but here it seems the linker is still /usr/bin/ld.And even if I only modified the CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS part, the same error was reported.

And the cmake version I use is 3.22.1. I installed LLVM according to the Automatic installation script on the LLVM apt package page and manually created a symbolic link for ld.lld to ld.lld-18(version is Ubuntu LLD 18.1.8 (compatible with GNU linkers)). The ld version is GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.38

I am able to compile BCC with LLVM 18.1.3. Here is my output for cmake if that helps:

cmake output
CC=clang CXX=clang++ cmake -B build .
CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:3 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 will be removed from a future version of
  CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value or use a ...<max> suffix to tell
  CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

According to the documentation, bison and flex are required. Why is it that in your output, bison and flex were not found, yet the build was still successful? Did I misunderstand something? Please point out my mistake, thank you.
