Currently, the kprobe BPF program attachment method for bpf_load is
quite old. The implementation of bpf_load "directly" controls and
manages(create, delete) the kprobe events of DEBUGFS. On the other hand,
using using the libbpf automatically manages the kprobe event.
(under bpf_link interface)
By calling bpf_program__attach(_kprobe) in libbpf, the corresponding
kprobe is created and the BPF program will be attached to this kprobe.
To remove this, by simply invoking bpf_link__destroy will clean up the
event.
This commit refactors kprobe tracing programs (tracex{1~7}_user.c) with
libbpf using bpf_link interface and bpf_program__attach.
tracex2_kern.c, which tracks system calls (sys_*), has been modified to
append prefix depending on architecture.

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.
