Subject: [PATCH 2/6] btf: use dt_btf_real_type_by_id() to resolve types
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 19:04:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e2828289b737fc9b39ec532e617838f3@oracle.com> (raw)

Functions that need to check type data operate on the real type rather
than a typedef or a type with modifiers.  Similarly, when a type of a
function is needed, the prototype (BTF type BTF_KIND_PROTO) is what is
really needed.

Introducing dt_btf_real_type_by_id() removed duplication of code in other
functions.
