    perf bpf: Allow attaching BPF programs to modules symbols · 5dbd16c0
    Wang Nan authored
    By extending the syntax of BPF object section names, this patch allows
    users to attach BPF programs to symbols in modules. For example:
    
      SEC("module=i915;"
          "parse_cmds=i915_parse_cmds")
      int parse_cmds(void *ctx)
      {
          return 1;
      }
    
    The implementation is very simple: like what 'perf probe' does, for module,
    fill 'uprobe' field in 'struct perf_probe_event'. Other parts will be done
    automatically.
