Check that you have all the required Kconfig options from
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/config. And also you will need to build
pahole from master, 1.19 doesn't have some fixes that add kernel
module support. I think pahole is the reasons why you have the failure
below.

use -vv when debugging stuff like that with test_progs, it will output
libbpf detailed logs, that often are very helpful

But even apart from test failure, there seems to be kernel build
failure. See [0] for what fails in kernel-patches CI.

It's kind of boring to have two read tracepoints :) Do you mind adding
a write tracepoint and use bare tracepoint there? You won't need this
ctx.len++ hack as well. Feel free to add identical
bpf_testmod_test_write_ctx (renaming it is more of a pain).
