Version 1.24 of pahole has the capability to exclude compilation units (CUs) of specific languages [1] [2]. Rust, as of writing, is not currently supported by pahole and if it's used with a build that has BTF debugging enabled it results in malformed kernel and module binaries [3]. So it's better for pahole to exclude Rust CUs until support for it arrives.

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.
