We still need a little bit more info, because I couldn't find libasan in
the clang that ships with fedora:30 and not on the selection used to
build from the clang repo in my machine:

[acme@quaco perf]$ rm -rf /tmp/build/perf ; mkdir -p /tmp/build/perf
[acme@quaco perf]$ make -C tools/perf CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address -DADDRESS_SANITIZER=1" O=/tmp/build/perf
make: Entering directory '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf'
BUILD: Doing 'make -j8' parallel build
HOSTCC /tmp/build/perf/fixdep.o
HOSTLD /tmp/build/perf/fixdep-in.o
LINK /tmp/build/perf/fixdep

Makefile.config:368: *** No gnu/libc-version.h found, please install glibc-dev[el]. Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.perf:219: sub-make] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:70: all] Error 2

[acme@quaco perf]$ cat /tmp/build/perf/feature/test-glibc.make.output
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find /opt/llvm/lib/clang/9.0.0/lib/linux/libclang_rt.asan-x86_64.a: No such file or directory
clang-8: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
[acme@quaco perf]$

So I'll check and select that to get to the set of instructions needed
to use this.
