Yeah, we use perf to perf perf, so we need to use bpf with perf to perf
bpf :-)

Look at tools/perf/util/bpf_skel/bpf_prog_profiler.bpf.c, the BPF
skeleton used to create the in-kernel scaffold to profile BPF programs.

It uses two BPF programs (fentry/XXX and fexit/XXX) and some a
PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map and an array to diff counters read at exit from
counters read at exit of the profiled BPF programs and then accumulate
those diffs in another PERCPU_ARRAY.

This all ends up composing a "BPF PMU" that is what the userspace perf
tooling will read (from "accum_readings" BPF map)  and 'perf stat' will
consume as if reading from an "old style perf counter" :-)

Song, did I get it right? :-)

For convenience, it is below:
