ERR_get_error_all() exists only in OpenSSL 3.0 and later. Older versions
lack this API, causing build failure:

Use the deprecated ERR_get_error_line_data() for OpenSSL < 3.0, and keep
using ERR_get_error_all() when available.

Thanks, but this should be addressed in bpf-next already, see commit
90ae54b4c7ec ("bpftool: Allow bpftool to build with openssl < 3")

Thanks for the info.  I suspect someone has fixed it so I did not find
it on the perf mailing list (I should search bpf ML).  Please ignore
this one.
