BPF programs, maps, and links, can all be listed with their pinned paths by bpftool, when the "-f" option is provided. To do so, bpftool builds hash maps containing all pinned paths for each kind of objects. These three hash maps are always initialised in main.c, and exposed through main.h. There appear to be no particular reason to do so: we can just as well make them static to the files that need them (prog.c, map.c, and link.c respectively), and initialise them only when we want to show objects and the "-f" switch is provided. This may prevent unnecessary memory allocations if the implementation of the hash maps was to change in the future.

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.
