You left out the most useful part:

| libbpf.c:2826:4: note: in expansion of macro 'pr_info'
|     pr_info("elf: skipping section(%d) %s (size %zu)\n", idx, name,
sh.sh_size);
|     ^~~~~~~
| libbpf.c:2826:50: note: format string is defined here
|     pr_info("elf: skipping section(%d) %s (size %zu)\n", idx, name,
sh.sh_size);
|                                                 ~~^
|                                                 %llu

But I fixed it as part of [0], thanks.
