By introducing new rules in tools/perf/util/parse-events.[ly], this
patch enables 'perf record --event bpf_file.o' to select events by an
eBPF object file. It calls parse_events_load_bpf() to load that file,
which uses bpf__prepare_load() and finally calls bpf_object__open() for
the object files.
Instead of introducing evsel to evlist during parsing, events selected
by eBPF object files are appended separately. The reason is:
1. During parsing, the probing points have not been initialized.
2. Currently we are unable to call add_perf_probe_events() twice,
therefore we have to wait until all such events are collected,
then probe all points by one call.
The real probing and selecting is reside in following patches.
Commiter note:
Testing if the event parsing changes indeed call the BPF loading
routines:
[root@felicio ~]# ls -la foo.o
ls: cannot access foo.o: No such file or directory
[root@felicio ~]# perf record --event foo.o sleep
libbpf: failed to open foo.o: No such file or directory
bpf: failed to load foo.o
invalid or unsupported event: 'foo.o'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available
events
[root@felicio ~]#
Yes, it does this time around.
