[PATCH v2 0/2] tools/bpf/bpftool: Fix vmlinux BTF state cleanup
From: Yichong Chen
Date: Sun Jun 21 2026 - 23:13:29 EST
This series fixes stale vmlinux BTF state in bpftool batch mode.
Patch 1 resets the map command cached vmlinux BTF pointer when the
command releases it, and avoids freeing the cached object from the
map lookup path.
Patch 2 resets the struct_ops command cached vmlinux BTF pointer and
dependent cached map info state after each struct_ops command.
Changes in v2:
- Fold the map lookup path fix into patch 1.
- Update patch 1 subject and commit message to cover map commands
rather than only map dump.
