perf tools: Introduce bpf-output event
Commit a43eec304259 ("bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper") adds a helper to enable a BPF program to output data to a perf ring buffer through a new type of perf event, PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT. This patch enables perf to create events of that type. Now a perf user can use the following cmdline to receive output data from BPF programs: # perf record -a -e bpf-output/no-inherit,name=evt/ \ -e ./test_bpf_output.c/map:channel.event=evt/ ls / # perf script perf 1560 [004] 347747.086295: evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ... perf 1560 [004] 347747.086300: evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ... perf 1560 [004] 347747.086315: evt: ffffffff811fd201 sys_write ... ...
