So after uninstalling the libopencsd that comes with fedora 34 and
cloning the upstream OpenCSD git repo, building it and installing in
/usr/local/ it seems to work as expected:

⬢[acme@toolbox perf]$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf ;
⬢[acme@toolbox perf]$ make O=/tmp/build/perf VF=1 CORESIGHT=1 O=/tmp/build/perf -C tools/perf install-bin |& grep -i opencsd

This doesn't explain that 'make -C tools/perf build-test' error, perhaps
it is reusing the feature dump (feature detection), done without
CORESIGHT=1, when building with CORESIGHT=1 :-\

Anyway, please consider making the build fail when CORESIGHT=1 is passed
explicitely and that tools/build/feature-libopencsd.c feature test fails
instead of silently building the tool _without_ the explicitely asked
for feature.

Thanks,
