Andrii Nakryiko 25498a1969 libbpf: Always specify expected_attach_type on program load if supported
For some types of BPF programs that utilize expected_attach_type, libbpf won't
set load_attr.expected_attach_type, even if expected_attach_type is known from
section definition. This was done to preserve backwards compatibility with old
kernels that didn't recognize expected_attach_type attribute yet (which was
added in 5e43f899b0 ("bpf: Check attach type at prog load time"). But this
is problematic for some BPF programs that utilize newer features that require
kernel to know specific expected_attach_type (e.g., extended set of return
codes for cgroup_skb/egress programs).

This patch makes libbpf specify expected_attach_type by default, but also
detect support for this field in kernel and not set it during program load.
This allows to have a good metadata for bpf_program
(e.g., bpf_program__get_extected_attach_type()), but still work with old
kernels (for cases where it can work at all).

Additionally, due to expected_attach_type being always set for recognized
program types, bpf_program__attach_cgroup doesn't have to do extra checks to
determine correct attach type, so remove that additional logic.

Also adjust section_names selftest to account for this change.
