perf bpf: Tighten detection of BPF events
perf stat -e cpu/uops_executed.core,cmask=1/ would be detected as a BPF source event because the .c matches the .c source BPF pattern. v2: Originally I tried to use lex lookahead, but it doesn't seem to work. This now extends the BPF pattern to match longer events, but then does an extra check in the C code to reject BPF matches that do not end with .c/.o/.obj This uses REJECT, which makes the flex scanner slower, but that shouldn't be a big problem for the perf events. Committer testing: # perf trace -e write -e /home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null 0.000 ( 0.006 ms): cat/18485 write(fd: 1, buf: 0x7f59eebe1000, count: 3494 ) ... 0.006 ( ): raw_syscalls:sys_enter:NR 1 (1, 7f59eebe1000, da6, 22, 7f59eebe0010, 0)) 0.008 ( ): perf_bpf_probe:_write:(ffffffff9626b2c0)) 0.000 ( 0.010 ms): cat/18485 ... [continued]: write()) = 3494 # It continues doing what was expected, i.e. identifying /home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c as a BPF event and activates the clang machinery to build an eBPF object and then uses sys_bpf() to hook it up to the raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint, etc. Andi forgot to add Wang to the CC list, fix it.
