Subject: [PATCH v2 bpf-next 2/2] btf: expose API to work with raw btf data
Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2019 16:29:49 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190206002949.1915237-3-andriin@fb.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190206002949.1915237-1-andriin@fb.com>

This patch exposes two new APIs btf__get_raw_data_size() and
btf__get_raw_data() that allows to get a copy of raw BTF data out of
struct btf. This is useful for external programs that need to manipulate
raw data, e.g., pahole using btf__dedup() to deduplicate BTF type info
and then writing it back to file.
