Loading BTF and BTF.ext from ELF file is a common need. Instead of requiring every user to re-implement it, let's provide this API from libbpf itself. It's mostly copy/paste from `bpftool btf dump` implementation, which will be switched to libbpf's version in next patch. btf__parse_elf allows to load BTF and optionally BTF.ext. This is also useful for tests that need to load/work with BTF, loaded from test ELF files. Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andriin@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
