Subject: [PAHOLE v3 1/3] dwarf_loader: Extract die__add_btf_type_tag() helper
Date: Mon,  1 Jun 2026 11:35:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260601183511.594100-1-vineet.gupta@linux.dev> (raw)

NFC change preparing for DW_TAG_GNU_annotation support.
Extract the btf_type_tag annotation creation logic from into a helper
die__add_btf_type_tag().

Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vineet.gupta@linux.dev>
---
Changes since v2 [2]
 - die__add_btf_type_tag() returns pointer not error code.

Changes since v1 [1]
 - NFC reinstate some original comments
