Description
As you maybe already noticed, some people are working on XDP Support in OpenWrt.
As loader we currently have:
- iproute2
- ubpf
- WIP xdp-tools
Here are some hacky OpenWrt examples from me:
Soon, there will be some OpenWrt tutorial. Further, I highly recommend XDP-Tutorial.
As u can see in the WIP xdp-tools, everything just fails, since I use clang to cross-compile.
*** ERROR: Cannot find tool clang
Can we add clang to the workflow to have support for packages that want to make use of xdp?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the GitHub workflow used to build OpenWrt packages and compare its tool availability with the WIP xdp-tools package in PR 14739. Confirm how clang is expected to participate in cross-compilation; the work is done when the workflow can build packages that require clang without the “Cannot find tool clang” error.
