halacha - Do you have to know kol ha Torah kula?


Is there a requirement for a Jewish man to know the whole Torah (including every gemara, tosafot, Midrasch…) or is it OK to know the Halacha that is relevant to you and then to use the rest of the time to learn those areas in Torah which are interesting for you? If there is such a requirement (to know all the Torah) can someone give me the source for that requirement and also an explanation of why there is a need to learn even those parts which are seemingly not relevant to you?
