Libbpf stores associated BTF FD per each instance of bpf_program. When
program is unloaded, that FD is closed. This is wrong, because leads to
a race and possibly closing of unrelated files, if application
simultaneously opens new files while bpf_programs are unloaded.
It's also unnecessary, because struct btf "owns" that FD, and
btf__free(), called from bpf_object__close() will close it. Thus the fix
is to never have per-program BTF FD and fetch it from obj->btf, when
necessary.

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.
