That makes sense to me.
I've also been thinking of a way to "transition" ext prog from one
target program to another, but I had an impression that limiting number
of target progs to one for an ext prog is "by design" and hard to
change, and was looking at introducing a way to duplicate existing ext
prog by its fd but with different attach_prog_fd and attach_btf_id (smth
like BPF_PROG_DUP command) instead.
But since you're saying that there are actually many use-cases to be
able to attach freplace/fexit/fentry to multiple target programs, that
works as well. Happy to look at the prototype when it's available.
Thanks.
