[PATCH 06/22] perf tools: Attach eBPF program to perf event

From: Wang Nan
Date: Wed Sep 23 2015 - 07:26:07 EST


This is the final patch which makes basic BPF filter work. After
applying this patch, users are allowed to use BPF filter like:

# perf record --event ./hello_world.o ls

A bpf_fd field is appended to 'struct evsel', and setup during the
callback function add_bpf_event() for each 'probe_trace_event'.

PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF ioctl is used to attach eBPF program to a newly
created perf event. The file descriptor of the eBPF program is passed to
perf record using previous patches, and stored into evsel->bpf_fd.

It is possible that different perf event are created for one kprobe
events for different CPUs. In this case, when trying to call the
ioctl, EEXIST will be return. This patch doesn't treat it as an error.
