Subject: Re: [PATCH] libbpf: Initialize st_ops->tname with strdup()

Hi,

You're correct, I should add a NULL check.

zfree(&map->st_ops->tname) causes error because tname has
`const` qualifier.
Also, I found st_ops->type has the same issue.
Therefore, I propose removing `const` from `tname` and `type`
fields of `struct bpf_struct_ops`, and duplicating them from btf.
