Re: Re: [PATCH bpf-next] samples/bpf: Fix sockex3: missing BPF prog type

We can not just remove the number of program like:

-#define PROG(F) SEC("socket/"__stringify(F)) int bpf_func_##F
+#define PROG(F) SEC("socket_filter") int bpf_func_##F

because "sockex3" use the _NUMBER_ as index(see map "jmp_table"), if we
apply the following patch, it's still not recognize "socket_filter/xxx"
as "socket_filter", still have "missing BPF prog type" error:

For a reason, in sockex3_kern.c only have five PROGs, list all five:

#define PROG(F) SEC("socket/"__stringify(F)) int bpf_func_##F
PROG(PARSE_IP)(struct __sk_buff *skb)
PROG(PARSE_IPV6)(struct __sk_buff *skb)
PROG(PARSE_VLAN)(struct __sk_buff *skb)
PROG(PARSE_MPLS)(struct __sk_buff *skb)
SEC("socket/0") int main_prog(struct __sk_buff *skb)

As you can see, all those PROGs are BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCKET_FILTER, so we can
use the follow patch specify bpf program type as SOCKET_FILTER:

This patch above totally solved the compile error.
