Hi, Vlastimil.

Thank you for your reply. Indeed, BTF can eliminate the existing problem
of data structure parsing. But as far as the current BCC[0] code is
concerned, more surgery may be required.

Now the bcc problem[1] should probably be solved by the bcc itself using
BTF, and should not bother the kernel. I hope the maintenance engineers
at BCC can agree with this. Thanks again.

Rong, I have added a comment in above [1]. Let us try to resolve
this issue inside the bcc. Thanks!


Best wishes.
