I'm no expert on building/cross compiling but I think you are missing some
options here. with-sysroot is probably one of them.

I think this should do the trick:

./configure --with-sysroot=/64_sw/git/zvi_vered/MY_PROJ/linux4.9.20/boot/rootfs
--prefix /

Another possibility would be using DESTDIR on make install.

The prefix is used to bake in the path used by lttng-sessiond for
consumerd lookup.

We use libdir as the base path.

  --libdir=DIR            object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
