Andrei Matei 80b2b5c3a7 libbpf: Fail early when loading programs with unspecified type
Before this patch, a program with unspecified type
(BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC) would be passed to the BPF syscall, only to have
the kernel reject it with an opaque invalid argument error. This patch
makes libbpf reject such programs with a nicer error message - in
particular libbpf now tries to diagnose bad ELF section names at both
open time and load time.

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.
