Would be great to have a small blurb on what BPF iterators are and what
they can do. I'm afraid users reading this man page will have no idea
whatsoever.
> + Create a bpf iterator from *OBJ*, and pin it to
> + *PATH*. The *PATH* should be located in *bpffs* mount.
Can you keep the note that other pages have about the dot character
being forbidden in *PATH* basename, please?
> +
> + **bpftool struct_ops help**
s/struct_ops/iter/
> + Print short help message.
> +
> +OPTIONS
> +=======
> + -h, --help
> + Print short generic help message (similar to **bpftool help**).
> +
> + -V, --version
> + Print version number (similar to **bpftool version**).
> +
> + -d, --debug
> + Print all logs available, even debug-level information. This
> + includes logs from libbpf as well as from the verifier, when
> + attempting to load programs.> +

You should probably offer "pin" here in addition to "help".

Nit: initialise err t0 -1 do you don't have to set it three times below?

Try to mount bpffs before that if "-n" is not passed? You could even
call do_pin_any() from common.c by passing bpf_link__fd().

Have you considered simply adapting the more traditional workflow
"bpftool prog load && bpftool prog attach" so that it supports iterators
instead of adding a new command? It would:
- Avoid adding yet another bpftool command with a single subcommand
- Enable to reuse the code from prog load, in particular for map reuse
(I'm not sure how relevant maps are for iterators, but I wouldn't be
surprised if someone finds a use case at some point?)
- Avoid users naively trying to run "bpftool prog load && bpftool prog
attach <prog> iter" and not understanding why it fails
