[PATCH v3 1/4] perf util: move bpf_perf definitions to a libperf header

From: Song Liu
Date: Fri Apr 16 2021 - 18:13:52 EST


By following the same protocol, other tools can share hardware PMCs with
perf. Move perf_event_attr_map_entry and BPF_PERF_DEFAULT_ATTR_MAP_PATH to
bpf_perf.h for other tools to use.
