hi,
I'm getting bpftool crash when building tests,

looks like above obj->btf can be NULL:
I lost if (!obj->btf) return 0; somewhere along the rebases. I'll send
a fix shortly. But how did you end up with selftests BPF objects built
without BTF?
no idea.. I haven't even updated llvm for almost 3 days now ;-)
sorry for late follow up on this, and it's actually forgotten empty
object in progs directory that was causing this

I wonder we should add empty object like below to catch these cases,
well, feel free to chime in on [0] then

  [0] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20210319205909.1748642-4-andrii@kernel.org/
because there's another place that bpftool is crashing on with it

I can send full patch for that if you think it's worth having
sure, but see my comment below

add_dummy_ksym_var() shouldn't be called, if there is no btf, so the
fix should be outside of this fix.
