Yeah, so the principle is the following: the main configuration option for it
is
BPF_SYSCALL. The BPF_EVENTS is an internal detail, always enabled when
possible,
and we make it so that if the BPF syscall is enabled, we'll enable the perf
integration if all the must-have components are in place:

So this is intentional.
Unless your suggestion is to also enable it when neither KPROBE_EVENT nor
UPROBE_EVENT are defined. Does that make sense?
Thanks,
