Description:

Following message can be seen while booting kernel Linux 5.10.4.a-1-hardened from today:

libbpf: Failed to find valid kernel BTF
libbpf: Error loading vmlinux BTF: -3
libbpf: Failed to load object ‘iterators_bpf’
libbpf: failed to load BPF skeleton iterators_bpf: -3
Failed load could be wrong endianess

Possibly related to not having BTF support in kernel config:

CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF=y
This task depends upon

I have same problem: While the system boots into the console, the Gnome desktop fails to launch. After downgrading to 'linux-hardened-5.9.16.a-1' Gnome launches fine.

IrvineHimself, that is unrelated. Don't hijack tickets.

@Scimmia: Sorry about that. However,

Gnome fails with kernel version
~ 5.10.4.a-1-hardened (linux-hardened@archlinux)

But succeeds with kernel versions
~ 5.10.3-arch1-1 (linux@archlinux)
~ 5.9.16.a-1-hardened (linux-hardened@archlinux)

The only thing changed in any of the boots is the kernel version, should I open another bug report?

Yes, please do open another bugreport.

Unless there's already a ticket for it. There are a lot against the linux package.

Disabling CONFIG_BPF_PRELOAD gets rid of those warnings. It seems to be a debug related option so disabling it makes sense while CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is disabled at the same time.
