BTF gains compact encoding for inline function probe sites
Alan Maguire's bpf-next series lets tracers attach kprobe-style instrumentation at inlined call sites without ballooning type data.
By kexecBTF patches aim to let BPF tracers reach inlined functions
Alan Maguire proposes compact location metadata so kprobes can recover parameters at inline sites without ballooning kernel BTF.
By oopsBPF plugs three NULL derefs in BTF type show paths
Key-less hash map dumps and bpf_snprintf_btf() on void or var types could oops the kernel; Jiayuan Chen restores rejections and safe placeholders.
By kexecPahole gains Rust enum DWARF support and dwz alternate debug handling
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo’s series stops Rust Option and Result types from collapsing to empty BTF structs and unblocks type loading on dwz-compressed debuginfo.
