[PATCH v2 0/9] tracing: Improbe BTF support on probe events

["Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Hi,

Here is the 2nd version of series to improve the BTF support on probe events.
The previous series is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/168699521817.528797.13179901018528120324.stgit@mhiramat.roam.corp.google.com/

In this version, I added a NULL check fix patch [1/9] (which will go to
fixes branch) and move BTF related API to kernel/bpf/btf.c [2/9] and add
a new BTF API [3/9] so that anyone can reuse it.
Also I decided to use '$retval' directly instead of 'retval' pseudo BTF
variable for field access at [5/9] because I introduced an idea to choose
function 'exit' event automatically if '$retval' is used [7/9]. With that
change, we can not use 'retval' because if a function has 'retval'
argument, we can not decide 'f func retval' is function exit or entry.
Selftest test case [8/9] and document [9/9] are also updated according to
those changes.

This series can be applied on top of "v6.5-rc2" kernel.

You can also get this series from:

Thank you,
