You need to do changes like this:

diff --git a/samples/bpf/sockex3_kern.c b/samples/bpf/sockex3_kern.c
index b363503357e5..db6a93e7ec53 100644

struct {
__uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY);

Why fixing up after the fact at runtime, if you can just make those
BPF programs conform to libbpf rules?
