Subject: [PATCH bpf-next 0/1] libbpf: fail early when loading programs with unspecified type
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2020 23:41:03 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201201044104.24948-1-andreimatei1@gmail.com> (raw)

This patch should help people who misunderstand the importance of using
proper prefixes to their ELF sections in bpf object files. The patch
assumes that programs with type BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC are always invalid,
as indicated by `man 2 bpf`. Please let me know if that is not accurate.
