libbpf: Postpone BTF ID finding for TRACING programs to load phase
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Move BTF ID determination for BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACING programs to a load phase.
Performing it at open step is inconvenient, because it prevents BPF skeleton
generation on older host kernel, which doesn't contain BTF_KIND_FUNCs
information in vmlinux BTF. This is a common set up, though, when, e.g.,
selftests are compiled on older host kernel, but the test program itself is
executed in qemu VM with bleeding edge kernel. Having this BTF searching
performed at load time allows to successfully use bpf_object__open() for
codegen and inspection of BPF object file.
