The target can call bpf_iter_reg_target() to register itself.
The needed information:
target: target name
seq_ops: the seq_file operations for the target
init_seq_private target callback to initialize seq_priv during file open
fini_seq_private target callback to clean up seq_priv during file release
seq_priv_size: the private_data size needed by the seq_file
operations
The target name represents a target which provides a seq_ops
for iterating objects.
The target can provide two callback functions, init_seq_private
and fini_seq_private, called during file open/release time.
For example, /proc/net/{tcp6, ipv6_route, netlink, ...}, net
name space needs to be setup properly during file open and
released properly during file release.
Function bpf_iter_unreg_target() is also implemented to unregister
a particular target.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
