Subject: [RFC PATCH] libbpf: Add bpf_program__set_section_name api
The new api can be used to reset the function we want to trace in
runtime. So we need not to change the code again when we just do
minor changes to the trace function in kprobe or other ebpf event
type. We can replace the old section with new section passed in via
parameter. Maybe the following scenario we can use the api:
1. solve "*.isra.o" issue caused by compiler in new kernel
obj = offcputime_bpf__open();
bpf_program__set_section_name(*(obj->skeleton->obj),
"kprobe/finish_task_switch", "kprobe/finish_task_switch.isra.0");
2. dynamic adjustment for trace function offset
obj = offcputime_bpf__open();
bpf_program__set_section_name(*(obj->skeleton->obj),
"kprobe/finish_task_switch+23", "kprobe/finish_task_switch+45");
