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:
Makes sense, yes. I probably got confused due to the help text on the
hidden Kconfig entry, but that can nevertheless serve as documentation
purpose.
Thanks,
