If the ".BTF" elf section exists, libbpf will try to create a btf_fd (through BPF_BTF_LOAD). If that fails, it will still continue loading the bpf prog/map without the BTF. If the bpf_object has a BTF loaded, it will create a map with the btf_fd. libbpf will try to figure out the btf_key_id and btf_value_id of a map by finding the BTF type with name "<map_name>_key" and "<map_name>_value". If they cannot be found, it will continue without using the BTF.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
