static const struct btf_param *find_btf_func_param(const char *funcname, s32 *nr, bool tracepoint) { + struct btf *btf = traceprobe_get_btf();I found that traceprobe_get_btf() only returns the vmlinux's btf. But if the function is defined in a kernel module, we should get the module's btf.Good catch! That should be a separated fix (or improvement?) I think it's better to use btf_get() and btf_put(), and pass btf via traceprobe_parse_context.Hmm, it seems that there is no exposed API to get the module's btf. Should I use btf_idr and btf_idr_lock directly to find the corresponding btf? If there isn't yet, I will add it too.
There is bpf_find_btf_id. Probably drop 'static' from it and use it.
