Summary0001481: Request to enable kernel option CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF (again)
DescriptionDear elrepo support,

Please consider enabling this option CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF (again), it has been a while since last time and the previous issues may no longer be relevant (https://www.elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=1320).
The goal is the same - using security, diagnostics and performance evaluation tools based on bpf/btf.
I Manually rebuild the kernel with the following options, system (AlmaLinux 8.10) work as usual, use did not reveal the previously described issues.

Kind Regards,
Anton.

I've built kernel-ml with the config changes requested (kernel-ml-6.10.9-1bug1481.el8.elrepo.x86_64).

Thanks for the quick response.
I don't see any visible problems after the update, everything seems to work as before.
