[RFC PATCH 4/4] bpf tools: Enable/disable the perf events stored in 'struct bpf_object'

From: Kaixu Xia
Date: Thu Aug 27 2015 - 06:43:20 EST


This patch enable/disable the perf events stored in 'struct
bpf_object' at the appropriate time. These events we're
interested in come from 'maps' sections.
