Linux kernel source tree
LLVM 17 started treating const structs as constants:
* https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/0b2d5b967d98
Combined with pointer laundering via ptr_to_u64, which takes a const ptr,
but in reality treats the underlying memory as mutable, this makes clang
always pass zero to btf__type_by_id, which breaks full name resolution.
Disassembly before (LLVM 16) and after (LLVM 17):
- 8b 75 cc mov -0x34(%rbp),%esi
- e8 47 8d 02 00 call 3f5b0 <btf__type_by_id>
+ 31 f6 xor %esi,%esi
+ e8 a9 8c 02 00 call 3f510 <btf__type_by_id>
It's a bigger project to fix this properly (and a question whether LLVM
itself should detect this), but for right now let's just fix bpftool.

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 reStructuredText 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.
