bpf_object_open_opts.attach_prog_fd makes a pretty strong assumption that bpf_object contains either only single freplace BPF program or all of BPF programs in BPF object are freplaces intended to replace different subprograms of the same target BPF program. This seems both a bit confusing, too assuming, and limiting. We've had bpf_program__set_attach_target() API which allows more fine-grained control over this, on a per-program level. As such, mark open_opts.attach_prog_fd as deprecated starting from v0.7, so that we have one more universal way of setting freplace targets. With previous change to allow NULL attach_func_name argument, and especially combined with BPF skeleton, arguable bpf_program__set_attach_target() is a more convenient and explicit API as well.

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.
