Parsing BTF still relies on io.Reader(At) in places, which makes it awkward to parse from a plain byte slice. Rework the internal plumbing to use []byte. This also deductes the endianness of a BTF blob from its header, which allows us to get rid of guessBTFByteOrder. Signed-off-by: Lorenz Bauer <[email protected]>
The kernel recently gained the ability to mmap vmlinux BTF, which allows us to not allocate a couple megabytes of heap memory. See torvalds/linux@a539e2a Signed-off-by: Lorenz Bauer <[email protected]>
