So, the first helper is the one shortening a variable/function section
attribute, from, for instance:
char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";
to:
char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
Convert empty.c to that and it becomes:
# cat ~acme/lib/examples/perf/bpf/empty.c
#include <bpf.h>
char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
int _version SEC("version") = LINUX_VERSION_CODE;
