[PATCH 25/31] perf tools: Generate prologue for BPF programs

From: Wang Nan
Date: Sat Aug 29 2015 - 00:25:53 EST


This patch generates prologue for each 'struct probe_trace_event' for
fetching arguments for BPF programs.

After bpf__probe(), iterate over each programs to check whether
prologue is required. If none of 'struct perf_probe_event' a program
will attach to has at least one argument, simply skip preprocessor
hooking. For those who prologue is required, calls bpf__gen_prologue()
and paste original instruction after prologue.
