libbpf: Add auto-attach for uprobes based on section name
Now that u[ret]probes can use name-based specification, it makes sense to add support for auto-attach based on SEC() definition. The format proposed is SEC("u[ret]probe/binary:[raw_offset|[function_name[+offset]]") For example, to trace malloc() in libc: SEC("uprobe/libc.so.6:malloc") ...or to trace function foo2 in /usr/bin/foo: SEC("uprobe//usr/bin/foo:foo2") Auto-attach is done for all tasks (pid -1). prog can be an absolute path or simply a program/library name; in the latter case, we use PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH to resolve the full path, falling back to standard locations (/usr/bin:/usr/sbin or /usr/lib64:/usr/lib) if the file is not found via environment-variable specified locations.
