Existing BTF_ID_LIST used a local static variable to store btf_ids. This patch provided a new macro BTF_ID_LIST_GLOBAL to store btf_ids in a global variable which can be shared among multiple files. The existing BTF_ID_LIST is still retained. Two reasons. First, BTF_ID_LIST is also used to build btf_ids for helper arguments which typically is an array of 5. Since typically different helpers have different signature, it makes little sense to share them. Second, some current computed btf_ids are indeed local. If later those btf_ids are shared between different files, they can use BTF_ID_LIST_GLOBAL then.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
