While trying to figure out why fentry_fexit selftest doesn't pass for me
(old pahole, broken BTF), I found out that my latest patch can break vmlinux
.BTF generation. objcopy preserves section start when doing --only-section,
so there is a chance (depending on where pahole inserts .BTF section) to
have leading empty zeroes. Let's explicitly force section offset to zero.
Before:
$ objcopy --set-section-flags .BTF=alloc -O binary \
--only-section=.BTF vmlinux .btf.vmlinux.bin
$ xxd .btf.vmlinux.bin | head -n1
00000000: 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 ................
After:
$ objcopy --change-section-address .BTF=0 \
--set-section-flags .BTF=alloc -O binary \
--only-section=.BTF vmlinux .btf.vmlinux.bin
$ xxd .btf.vmlinux.bin | head -n1
00000000: 9feb 0100 1800 0000 0000 0000 80e1 1c00 ................
^BTF magic
As part of this change, I'm also dropping '2>/dev/null' from objcopy
invocation to be able to catch possible other issues (objcopy doesn't
produce any warnings for me anymore, it did before with --dump-section).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
