Hi Masahiro,

An upgrade from gcc 11 to gcc 12, BTF section increase and a number of
duplicate IDs reported by resolve_btfids matches the description of
the following thread:

https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/Y%2FP1yxAuV6Wj3A0K@xxxxxxxxxx/

The issue is caused by change in GNU assembler DWARF generation.
I've sent a patch to fix it a few weeks ago and it is merged in
dwarves master:

a9498899109d ("dwarf_loader: Fix for BTF id drift caused by adding unspecified types")

Could you please grab a fresh version of dwarves from:

git@xxxxxxxxxx:acmel/dwarves.git

compile 'pahole' and try with?

Thanks,
Eduard
