Subject: Re: [RFC 0/4] BTF archive with unmodified pahole+toolchain
Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2025 04:33:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87a54azdvp.fsf@gentoo.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <7F061596-C814-42DA-AD6A-F766B21A188A@gmail.com>

FWIW, as a source-based distro, we'd love to have BTF-only be quite
cheap, because right now, having DWARF makes it challenging for us to
enable it by default as users build on a range of different hardware and
the increased size of the unstripped vmlinux binary plus build-time
requirements doesn't make it worth it.

(Not every distro is building once and shipping to many and has the
luxury of stripping out components ;))

Thanks for working on this.
