> This commit implements the logic for the gen min_core_btf command.
> Specifically, it implements the following functions:

> for all objects and then generates the BTF file by calling
> btfgen_get_btf() (implemented in the following commit).

Mauricio, did you try this patch on a system with an old Glibc (< 2.26)
by any chance? Haven't tried yet but I expect this might break bpftool's
build when COMPAT_NEED_REALLOCARRAY is set, because in that case gen.c
pulls <bpf/libbpf_internal.h>, and then <tools/libc_compat.h> (through
main.h). And libc_compat.h defines reallocarray(), which
libbpf_internal.h poisons with a GCC pragma.
At least this is what I observe when trying to add your patches to the
kernel mirror, where reallocarray() is redefined unconditionally. I'm
trying to figure out if we should fix this mirror-side, or kernel-side.
(I suppose we still need this compatibility layer, Ubuntu 16.04 seems to
use Glibc 2.23).
