Hi, thanks for looking into this!

Can we also please support referencing by name for "bpftool btf list"?
This will require collecting a list of the different programs with a
matching name, like we do for "bpftool prog list name <foo>" (but dumps
should still fail if there are more than one program matching, for
consistency with "bpftool prog dump").

"info_len" instead of "len" would be more explicit, and this can
probably be a const.

sizeof(info) is the same as before, no need to reassign "len" (and we
can use "len" in the memset()).

There's no guarantee that "info.name" is set, here. Some BTF objects are
anonymous and won't have a name. I'm getting a segfault from this
strncmp() when trying the patch locally, because I've got anonymous BTF
objects loaded and I end up passing a null pointer to the function. Can
you please fix this?

A follow-up question is how to handle anonymous objects. Given that
we want to filter on names, we should probably allow empty name as well:
"bpftool btf list name ''" should list anonymous objects, what do you
think?

We will also need to update the command description in the relevant man
page (.../Documentation/bpftool-btf.rst), and the bash completion
(.../bash-completion/bpftool).

Here's what I'd suggest for the bash completion:
