Thanks so much for doing this Andrii! When I tested, I ran into a problem;
it turns out when a module struct such as "veth_stats" is used, it's
classified as BTF_KIND_FWD, and as a result when we iterate over
the modules and look in the veth module, "struct veth_stats" does not
match since its module kind (BTF_KIND_STRUCT) does not match the candidate
kind (BTF_KIND_FWD). I'm kind of out of my depth here, but the below
patch (on top of your patch) worked. However without it - when we find
0 candidate matches - as well as not substituting the module object
id/type id - we hit a segfault:
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

at libbpf.c:4408
The dereferences of targ_spec in bpf_core_recalc_relo() seem
to be the cause; that function is called with a NULL targ_spec
when 0 candidates are found, so it's possible we'd need to
guard those accesses for cases where a bogus type was passed
in and no candidates were found. If the below looks good would
it make sense to roll it into your patch or will I add it to my
v3 patch series?
Thanks again for your help with this!
Alan

Subject: [PATCH] libbpf: handle fwd kinds when checking candidate relocations
for modules
when a struct belonging to a module is being assessed, it will be
designated a fwd kind (BTF_KIND_FWD); when matching candidate
types constraints on exact type matching need to be relaxed to
ensure that such structures are found successfully. Introduce
kinds_match() function to handle this comparison.
