Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v4 1/2] bpf, xdp: Add tracepoint to xdp attaching failure
Date:   Sun, 30 Jul 2023 19:49:50 +0800

When error happens in dev_xdp_attach(), it should have a way to tell
users the error message like the netlink approach.

To avoid breaking uapi, adding a tracepoint in bpf_xdp_link_attach() is
an appropriate way to notify users the error message.

Hence, bpf libraries are able to retrieve the error message by this
tracepoint, and then report the error message to users.
