please add

asm volatile ("");

here to prevent compiler from actually inlining at the call site

please don't use CHECK() macro, stick to ASSERT_xxx()

also, we are going to run all this on different hardware and VMs, see
how we skip tests if hardware support is not there. See test__skip
usage in prog_tests/perf_branches.c, as one example

I assume this is what will send SIGIO, right? Can you add a small
comment explicitly saying this?

we have a better way to do this, please use
bpf_program__attach_perf_event() instead

please use global variable:

__u64 ip;

and then access it from user-space side through skeleton

skel->bss.ip = &test_function;

and so we the above global var suggestion this will be just:

return ip == PT_REGS_IP(&data->regs);
