Public bug reported: [Impact]
To continue having BTF enabled in Linux HWE kernels and update to dwarves is required. v6.3+ kernels require dwarves v1.25 or better. This bug report is similar to a previous such backport https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dwarves-dfsg/+bug/1912811 Similar to before, to minimise changes, dwarves will be built with vendored and statically linked libbpf on releases that have older libbpf (jammy & kinetic). Lunar & Mantic use shared linked libbpf as the one in the archive is the same version as vendored one. [Test Case] * Rebuild given series GA kernel * On Jammy, rebuild GA, HWE, and Mantic kernels [Where problems could occur] Currently in jammy-lunar we ship cherry-pick from development pre- release 1.25 to address new BTF types. The upstream approach since this cherry-pick has changed to a more conservative one. This backport will align Ubuntu BTF with now released versions of BTF. Currently in jammy-lunar we have a BTF bug which leads to generating duplicate BTF information. This backport will address it.
