Hi Alan, I see in your cover letter that you tried to address the nits
from my review on v3 for patch 11, but it seems the changes got lost at
some point, please double-check.

> If the -R <base_btf> option is used, we can display BTF that has been

> bpftool btf dump -R /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux bpf_testmod.ko

> The latter mirrors how the kernel will handle such split

Please add the missing double-dash on --relocate-base-btf
