No openjdk development package found, please install JDK package,

[NobinPegasus]

I have my java installed and linked.
Still when I run another config it shows no openjdk development package found.

Is the build system looking for a specific version of the openjdk? From the example in the error message it looks like it's looking for JDK 8.
Maybe try installing the specified version of the JDK?
Otherwise, you may have to hack the makefile, or some of the other files in the build system to get it to accept JDK V21.

Another thought occurs to me - was there anything like a configure script alongside the makefile? If so, perhaps try running ./configure before running make. That will check your build environment and will modify any ancilliary build files, to include any library paths, or paths to other external dependencies (like the JDK), in order to sucessfully build the program on your machine.
If there is a configure script - it should be able to pick up the correct path to the JDK and will set up whatever paths it needs. Again, that's only IF there is a configure script in the source code for that program.

What is this "perf" that you're trying to build?
Where did you get it from?
If we can see what it is, and where you got it from - we can take a look at whatever files are in the sources and help you get to the bottom of the problem.
At the moment, I'm just blindly stabbing in the dark!
