Hi Romain

Shiny new package! Should we add a couple of sentences about the package in the
commit message rather than leaving it empty?

I haven't tested it yet, but a courtesy look at the patch it looked fine to me
in general. I haven't played much with libbpf to test this. Is it supposed to
completely replace BCC to compile and load bpf code, or just used to compile
BPF code?

Thanks
