A single BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD cmd is used to obtain the info for both bpf_prog and bpf_map. The kernel can figure out the fd is associated with a bpf_prog or bpf_map. The suggested struct bpf_prog_info and struct bpf_map_info are not meant to be a complete list and it is not the goal of this patch. New fields can be added in the future patch. The focus of this patch is to create the interface, BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD cmd for exposing the bpf_prog's and bpf_map's info. The obj's info, which will be extended (and get bigger) over time, is separated from the bpf_attr to avoid bloating the bpf_attr.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
