This enables support for attaching freplace programs to multiple attach points. It does this by amending the UAPI for bpf_link_Create with a target btf ID that can be used to supply the new attachment point along with the target program fd. The target must be compatible with the target that was supplied at program load time. The implementation reuses the checks that were factored out of check_attach_btf_id() to ensure compatibility between the BTF types of the old and new attachment. If these match, a new bpf_tracing_link will be created for the new attach target, allowing multiple attachments to co-exist simultaneously. The code could theoretically support multiple-attach of other types of tracing programs as well, but since I don't have a use case for any of those, there is no API support for doing so.

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.
