Does bpftrace use bpf_uprobe_multi_link_attach/etc ? I guess not...
Then which userspace tool uses this code? ;)

yes, it will trigger if you attach to multiple uprobes, like with your
test example with:

  # bpftrace -p xxx -e 'uprobe:./ex:func* { printf("%d\n", pid); }'

Hmm. I reserved the testing machine with fedora 40 to play with bpftrace.

dummy.c:

	#include <unistd.h>

	void func1(void) {}
	void func2(void) {}

	int main(void) { for (;;) pause(); }

If I do

	# ./dummy &
	# bpftrace -p $! -e 'uprobe:./dummy:func* { printf("%d\n", pid); }'

and run

	# bpftrace -e 'kprobe:__uprobe_register { printf("%s\n", kstack); }'

did you just bpftrace-ed bpftrace? ;-) on my setup I'm getting:

[root@qemu ex]# ../bpftrace/build/src/bpftrace -e 'kprobe:uprobe_register { printf("%s\n", kstack); }'
Attaching 1 probe...

I'm not sure what's bpftrace version in fedora 40, I'm using upstream build:

[root@qemu ex]# ../bpftrace/build/src/bpftrace --info 2>&1 | grep uprobe_multi
  uprobe_multi: yes
[root@qemu ex]# ../bpftrace/build/src/bpftrace --version
bpftrace v0.20.0

on another console I get

	Attaching 1 probe...

        do_syscall_64+130
        entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+118

so it seems that bpftrace doesn't use bpf_uprobe_multi_link_attach()
(called by sys_bpf(BPF_LINK_CREATE) ?) in this case.

But again, this is offtopic, please forget.
