Subject[PATCH RFC bpf-next 02/52] libbpf: try to load vmlinux BTF from the kernel first
Date
From: Larysa Zaremba <larysa.zaremba@intel.com>

Try to acquire vmlinux BTF the same way it's being done for module
BTFs. Use btf_load_next_with_info() and resort to the filesystem
lookup only if it fails.
Also, adjust debug messages in btf__load_vmlinux_btf() to reflect
that it actually tries to load vmlinux BTF.
