From: Wang Nan <[email protected]> regs_query_register_offset() is a helper function which converts register name like "%rax" to offset of a register in 'struct pt_regs', which is required by BPF prologue generator.
PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET indicates an architecture supports converting name of a register to its offset in 'struct pt_regs'. HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET is introduced as the corresponding CFLAGS of PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET.
