Andrii Nakryiko 063183bf04 libbpf: split initialization and loading of BTF
Libbpf does sanitization of BTF before loading it into kernel, if kernel
doesn't support some of newer BTF features. This removes some of the
important information from BTF (e.g., DATASEC and VAR description),
which will be used for map construction. This patch splits BTF
processing into initialization step, in which BTF is initialized from
ELF and all the original data is still preserved; and
sanitization/loading step, which ensures that BTF is safe to load into
kernel. This allows to use full BTF information to construct maps, while
still loading valid BTF into older kernels.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
