In one of our internal testing, we found a case where
- uapi struct bpf_tcp_sock is in vmlinux.h where vmlinux.h is not
generated from the testing kernel
- struct bpf_tcp_sock is not in vmlinux BTF
The above combination caused bpf load failure as the following
memory access
struct bpf_tcp_sock *tcp_sock = ...;
... tcp_sock->snd_cwnd ...
needs CORE relocation but the relocation cannot be resolved since
the kernel BTF does not have corresponding type.
Similar to other previous cases (nf_conn___init, tcp6_sock, mctcp_sock, etc.),
add the type to vmlinux BTF with BTF_EMIT_TYPE macro.

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 Restructured Text 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.
