Using cscope and/or TAGS files for navigating the source code is useful.
Add simple targets to the Makefile to generate the index files for both
tools.

Thanks a lot for adding this!

I tested cscope only and it works (especially without -k), so:

1. I'd drop -k, given libbpf is user-land library, so it's convenient
to jump into system headers for some of BPF definitions.
2. Wouldn't this be simpler and work exactly the same?

ls *.c *.h > cscope.files
cscope -b -q -f cscope.out

let's make it lower-case, please? Linux makefile supports both `make
tags` and `make TAGS`, but all-caps is terrible :)

nit: might as well do ls *.c *.h for consistency with cscope
suggestion above (though in both cases we just rely on shell expansion
logic, so doesn't matter).

Well, the reason I included it was that when using the version in the
kernel tree, I found it really annoying to jump to kernel headers
installed in the system. Then I'd rather the jump fails and I can go
lookup the header in the kernel tree myself.

So maybe we should rather use -I to point at the parent directory? You
guys could then strip that when syncing to the github repo?

Well, I usually avoid 'ls' because I have it aliased in my shell so it
prints more info than just the file names. But I don't suppose that's an
issue inside the Makefile, so will fix :)

You mean just rename the 'make' target, right? Sure, can do...

As for the file itself, I think the version actually on what you use to
generate the tags file. 'ctags' generates lower-case 'tags' by default,
while 'etags' generates 'TAGS'.

I don't use either, so dunno why that different exists, and if it's
actually meaningful? Should we do both?

Heh, pedantic much? ;)
But OK, I have no strong feelings one way or the other...

-I will allow to jump into kernel repo includes, right? That would be
even better!

Me neither, but yeah, I was referring to `make tags` target only.
