This commit refactors the existing kprobe program with libbpf bpf loader. To attach bpf program, this uses generic bpf_program__attach() approach rather than using bpf_load's load_bpf_file(). To attach bpf to perf_event, instead of using previous ioctl method, this commit uses bpf_program__attach_perf_event since it manages the enable of perf_event and attach of BPF programs to it, which is much more intuitive way to achieve. Also, explicit close(fd) has been removed since event will be closed inside bpf_link__destroy() automatically. Furthermore, to prevent conflict of same named uprobe events, O_TRUNC flag has been used to clear 'uprobe_events' interface. Signed-off-by: Daniel T.

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.
