perf tools: Load eBPF object into kernel
This patch utilizes bpf_object__load() provided by libbpf to load all
objects into kernel.
Committer notes:
Testing it:
When using an incorrect kernel version number, i.e., having this in your
eBPF proggie:
int _version __attribute__((section("version"), used)) = 0x40100;
For a 4.3.0-rc6+ kernel, say, this happens and needs checking at event
parsing time, to provide a better error report to the user:
# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o sleep 1
libbpf: load bpf program failed: Invalid argument
libbpf: -- BEGIN DUMP LOG ---
libbpf:
libbpf: -- END LOG --
libbpf: failed to load program 'fork=_do_fork'
libbpf: failed to load object '/tmp/foo.o'
event syntax error: '/tmp/foo.o'
\___ Invalid argument: Are you root and runing a CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL kernel?
(add -v to see detail)
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
If we instead make it match, i.e. use 0x40300 on this v4.3.0-rc6+
kernel, the whole process goes thru:
# perf record --event /tmp/foo.o -a usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.202 MB perf.data ]
# perf evlist -v
/tmp/foo.o: type: 1, size: 112, config: 0x9, { sample_period,
sample_freq }: 4000, sample_type: IP|TID|TIME|CPU|PERIOD, disabled: 1,
inherit: 1, mmap: 1, comm: 1, freq: 1, task: 1, sample_id_all: 1,
exclude_guest: 1, mmap2: 1, comm_exec: 1
