The BPF verifier allows setting a higher verbosity level, which is
helpful when it comes to debugging verifier issue, specially when used
to BPF program that loads successfully (but should not have passed the
verifier in the first place). Increase the BPF verifier log level in
when in verbose mode to help with such cases.

Why have the first patch if you redo the code here?

Ah, good point. I was trying to separate out libbpf-related changes from
verbosity-increasing changes, hence the first patch. And there I add the
.kernel_log_level field within DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS() because that seems to
be how it's usually done.

In the second patch I tried to make log-level changes consistent, having
them all done with `|= 2`, which isn't possible within
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS().

Maybe I should have just have `open_opts.kernel_log_level = 1;` outside of
DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS() in the first patch to begin with.

+#if (LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION > 0) || (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION >= 7)
+	open_opts.kernel_log_level = 1;
+#endif

Followed by

 #if (LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION > 0) || (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION >= 7)
 	open_opts.kernel_log_level = 1;
+	if (cfg->verbose)
+		open_opts.kernel_log_level |= 2;
 #endif

Would be better than

 	DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_object_open_opts, open_opts,
 			.relaxed_maps = true,
 			.pin_root_path = root_path,
+#ifdef (LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION > 0) || (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION >= 7)
+			.kernel_log_level = 1,
+#endif
 	);

Followed by

 	DECLARE_LIBBPF_OPTS(bpf_object_open_opts, open_opts,
 			.relaxed_maps = true,
 			.pin_root_path = root_path,
 #ifdef (LIBBPF_MAJOR_VERSION > 0) || (LIBBPF_MINOR_VERSION >= 7)
-			.kernel_log_level = 1,
+			.kernel_log_level = cfg->verbose ? (2 | 1) : 1,
 #endif
 	);

I suppose. What do you think?

that is less confusing for a patch sequence.

Thanks for the review. Will do this in v2.
