Thanks for checking.
pahole only generates the btf_id for external function and ftrace-able function. Some functions in the bpf_tcp_ca_kfunc_ids list are static (e.g. cubictcp_init), so it fails during resolve_btfids. I will post a patch to limit the bpf_tcp_ca_kfunc_ids list to CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. I will address the pahole generation in a followup and then remove this CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE limitation.
