From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>
This is initially about BTF encoding, we want to load DWARF and encode
BTF from it in a way that is reproducible, i.e. no matter how many
threads we use for the loading/encoding process, the output will be the
same, i.e. the BTF ids produced will be the same for all builds.
This first path just adds the conf_load field and allows it to be asked
for with the '--reproducible_build' option in pahole.
At some point we'll use with --btf_features=+reproducible_build or
'--btf_features=default --btf_features=reproducible_build' to keep the
default set of BTF features and be able to use this in the Linux kernel
build system without doing an extra pahole version check for the
availability of --reproducible_build with pahole versions that already
support --btf_features and thus would ignore "reproducible_build".
