[PATCH bpf-next] libbpf: Export bpf_object__load_vmlinux_btf
From: Daniel Xu
Date: Tue May 26 2020 - 21:57:25 EST
Right now the libbpf model encourages loading the entire object at once.
In this model, libbpf handles loading BTF from vmlinux for us. However,
it can be useful to selectively load certain maps and programs inside an
object without loading everything else.
In the latter model, there was perviously no way to load BTF on-demand.
This commit exports the bpf_object__load_vmlinux_btf such that we are
able to load BTF on demand.
