[PATCH 04/22] perf record, bpf: Create probe points for BPF programs

From: Wang Nan
Date: Thu Oct 08 2015 - 04:32:20 EST


This patch introduces bpf__{un,}probe() functions to enable callers to
create kprobe points based on section names a BPF program. It parses
the section names in the program and creates corresponding 'struct
perf_probe_event' structures. The parse_perf_probe_command() function is
used to do the main parsing work. The resuling 'struct perf_probe_event'
is stored into program private data for further using.

By utilizing the new probing API, this patch creates probe points during
event parsing.

To ensure probe points be removed correctly, register an atexit hook
so even perf quit through exit() bpf__clear() is still called, so probing
points are cleared.

strerror style error reporting scaffold is created by this patch.
bpf__strerror_probe() is the first error reporting function in bpf-loader.c.
