skeleton is generated from ELF BPF object file. You can do
llvm-objdump -d <obj.bpf.o> to see instructions. Unfortunately you
can't see BPF CO-RE relocations this way, you'd have to use something
like my custom tool ([0]).
But anyways, I checked locally similar code pattern and I think it's
all good from BPF CO-RE perspective. I see appropriate relocations in
all the necessary places. So this should work.
