While working on the ebpf-go [0] library integration for bpf_mprog and tcx,
Lorenz noticed that two subsequent BPF_PROG_QUERY requests currently fail. A
typical workflow is to first gather the bpf_mprog count without passing program/
link arrays, followed by the second request which contains the actual array
pointers.
The initial call populates count and revision fields. The second call gets
rejected due to a BPF_PROG_QUERY_LAST_FIELD bug which should point to
query.revision instead of query.link_attach_flags since the former is really
the last member.
It was not noticed in libbpf as bpf_prog_query_opts() always calls bpf(2) with
an on-stack bpf_attr that is memset() each time (and therefore query.revision
was reset to zero).

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.
