Description

when start Suricata with xdp_filter and AF_PACKET IPS mode with pinned-maps set to true as below config:

af-packet:
  - interface: eno1
    threads: auto

    cluster-type: cluster_qm #for IPS

open another ssh session to run xdp-loader status to show the xdp program is attached ok

virbr0                 <No XDP program loaded!>

the reason is EBPFLoadFile will not open/load/attach XDP program when pinned-maps is set to true

299 int EBPFLoadFile(const char *iface, const char *path, const char * section,
 300                  int *val, struct ebpf_timeout_config *config)
 301 {
 302     int err, pfd;
 303     bool found = false;
 304     struct bpf_object *bpfobj = NULL;
 305     struct bpf_program *bpfprog = NULL;
 306     struct bpf_map *map = NULL;
 307 
 308     if (iface == NULL)
 309         return -1;
 310     LiveDevice *livedev = LiveGetDevice(iface);
 311     if (livedev == NULL)
 312         return -1;
 313 
 314     if (config->flags & EBPF_XDP_CODE && config->flags & EBPF_PINNED_MAPS) { <====================
 315         /* We try to get our flow table maps and if we have them we can simply return */
 316         if (EBPFLoadPinnedMaps(livedev, config) == 0) {.   <========================================
 317             SCLogInfo("Loaded pinned maps, will use already loaded eBPF filter");
 318             return 1;
 319         }
 320     }

I know this is corner case that users are not suppose to unload the XDP program manually with other xdp utility program, but for whatever unexpected situation, if the XDP program is detached, when suricata is started, suricata should check if program is attached when pinned-maps is set to true.
