The bpftool interface stays the same, but now it's possible
to run it over BTF raw data, like:

  $ bpftool btf dump file /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux
  [1] INT '(anon)' size=4 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=32 encoding=(none)
  [2] INT 'long unsigned int' size=8 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=64 encoding=(none)
  [3] CONST '(anon)' type_id=2

[root@ibm-z-107 bpftool]# ./bpftool btf dump file /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux  | head -3
[1] INT '(anon)' size=4 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=32 encoding=(none)
[2] INT 'long unsigned int' size=8 bits_offset=0 nr_bits=64 encoding=(none)
[3] CONST '(anon)' type_id=2
[root@ibm-z-107 bpftool]# lscpu | grep Endian
Byte Order:          Big Endian
