Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v2] bpftool: Use sysfs vmlinux when dumping BTF by ID
Date:   Thu,  5 May 2022 15:05:08 +0200
Message-Id: <20220505130507.130670-1-larysa.zaremba@intel.com>

Currently, dumping almost all BTFs specified by id requires
using the -B option to pass the base BTF. For kernel module
BTFs the vmlinux BTF sysfs path should work.

This patch simplifies dumping by ID usage by attempting to
use vmlinux BTF from sysfs, if the first try of loading BTF by ID
fails with certain conditions and the ID corresponds to a kernel
module BTF.
