I just sent the patch to bpf-next to move to using --btf_features for pahole v1.26 and later [1] Alan [1] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20240501175035.2476830-1-alan.maguire@xxxxxxxxxx/ > - Arnaldo > >> Suggested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> >> Signed-off-by: Alan Maguire <alan.maguire@xxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> man-pages/pahole.1 | 2 +- >> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/man-pages/pahole.1 b/man-pages/pahole.1 >> index e3c58e0..19bf197 100644 >> --- a/man-pages/pahole.1 >> +++ b/man-pages/pahole.1 >> @@ -290,7 +290,7 @@ Allow using all the BTF features supported by pahole. >> >> .TP >> .B \-\-btf_features=FEATURE_LIST >> -Encode BTF using the specified feature list, or specify 'default' for all standard features supported.

This option can be used as an alternative to using multiple BTF-related options, and 'default' represents the standard set of BTF features that are in use for kernel BTF generation, so is useful as a shortcut for testing the latest set of standard features. However kernel builds will call out specific features rather than using 'default' to ensure that the desired features are enabled regardless of pahole version and associated 'default' set.
