Hi, I'm prepping up pahole 1.26, the noticeable thing for BTF encoding are Alan's patches (--btf_features, --btf_features_strict and --supported_btf_features). There was a fix for BTF loading, namely the signedness of enumerations, but that isn't used when building the kernel, just when pretty printing from BTF. I also have a few fixes and new features in the pretty printing code, but again, that isn't involved when building the kernel. If you have time, please do some tests and report results. You can find it in the usual places: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/devel/pahole/pahole.git https://github.com/acmel/dwarves.git In the master branch. Thanks a lot! - Arnaldo
