[PATCH 2/8] perf bpf filter: Implement event sample filtering

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Wed Feb 22 2023 - 18:02:12 EST


The BPF program will be attached to a perf_event and be triggered when
it overflows. It'd iterate the filters map and compare the sample
value according to the expression. If any of them fails, the sample
would be dropped.

Also it needs to have the corresponding sample data for the expression
so it compares data->sample_flags with the given value. To access the
sample data, it uses the bpf_cast_to_kern_ctx() kfunc which was added
in v6.2 kernel.
