btf_ext__{func,line}_info_rec_size functions are used in conjunction
with already-deprecated btf_ext__reloc_{func,line}_info functions. Since
struct btf_ext is opaque to the user it was necessary to expose rec_size
getters in the past.
btf_ext__reloc_{func,line}_info were deprecated in commit 8505e8709b
("libbpf: Implement generalized .BTF.ext func/line info adjustment")
as they're not compatible with support for multiple programs per
section. It was decided[0] that users of these APIs should implement their
own .btf.ext parsing to access this data, in which case the rec_size
getters are unnecessary. So deprecate them from libbpf 0.7.0 onwards.

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.
