--- Comment #1 from Jose E. Marchesi <jemarch at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
We discussed about this during this week's BBB meeting.
Basically, these C attributes are terribly misnamed, and not only because of
the silly "btf" on the name: the "decl/type" part of the attribute names is
also misleading, because as you say the BTF format actually allows "decl" tags
to be associated to union and struct types.
David Faust is working on a patch for this.
