  Hi,

Here is the 3rd version of series to improve the BTF support on probe events.
The previous series is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/168960739768.34107.15145201749042174448.stgit@devnote2/

The fixes patch in the previous version has been sent in different series.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/169024903018.395371.1006584451160707296.stgit@devnote2/

In this version, I added BTF support on module symbols (this will be the
biggest change) [1/9] and cleanup the btf APIs [2/9][3/9] according to
the comment. Also [5/9] introduce a query_btf_context() for simplifying
common fields in traceprobe_parse_context. [8/9] added more complex test
case for structure field access. And [9/9] update the documentation about
the mixture of '.' and '->'.

This series can be applied on top of "probes/core" branch of
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git/

You can also get this series from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mhiramat/linux.git topic/fprobe-event-ext

Thank you,
