+ * Libbpf allows callers to adjust BPF programs before being loaded
+ * into kernel. One program in an object file can be transform into
+ * multiple variants to be attached to different code.
+ *
+ * bpf_program_prep_t, bpf_program__set_prep and bpf_program__nth_fd
+ * are APIs for this propose.
+ *
+ * - bpf_program_prep_t:
+ * It defines 'preprocessor', which is a caller defined function
+ * passed to libbpf through bpf_program__set_prep(), and will be
+ * called before program is loaded. The processor should adjust
+ * the program one time for each instances according to the number
+ * passed to it.
+ *
+ * - bpf_program__set_prep:
+ * Attachs a preprocessor to a BPF program. The number of instances
+ * whould be created is also passed through this function.
+ *
+ * - bpf_program__nth_fd:
+ * After the program is loaded, get resuling fds from bpf program for
+ * each instances.
+ *
+ * If bpf_program__set_prep() is not used, the program whould be loaded
+ * without adjustment during bpf_object__load(). The program has only
+ * one instance. In this case bpf_program__fd(prog) is equal to
+ * bpf_program__nth_fd(prog, 0).
