Open a pinned link and then update should not be specific to struct_ops link.
e.g. should be useful to the cgroup link also?
It could be. Here, I played safe in case it creates any unwanted side
effect for links of unknown types.
By the way, may I put it in a follow up patch if we want cgroup links?
This does not feel right. It is not struct_ops specific.
Before we dive in further, there is BPF_OBJ_GET which can get a fd of a pinned
bpf obj (prog, map, and link). Take a look at bpf_link__open() in libbpf. Does
it work for the use case that needs to update the link?
