The name of the API doesn't convey clearly that this size is in number of bytes (there needed to be a separate comment to make this clear in libbpf.h). Further, measuring the size of BPF program in bytes is not exactly the best fit, because BPF programs always consist of 8-byte instructions. As such, bpf_program__insn_cnt() is a better alternative in pretty much any imaginable case. So schedule bpf_program__size() deprecation starting from v0.7 and it will be removed in libbpf 1.0.

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.
