[PATCH 1/3] perf stat: Fix BPF program section name

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Fri Sep 09 2022 - 13:52:55 EST


It seems the recent libbpf got more strict about the section name.
I'm seeing a failure like this:

$ sudo ./perf stat -a --bpf-counters --for-each-cgroup ^. sleep 1
libbpf: prog 'on_cgrp_switch': missing BPF prog type, check ELF section name 'perf_events'
libbpf: prog 'on_cgrp_switch': failed to load: -22
libbpf: failed to load object 'bperf_cgroup_bpf'
libbpf: failed to load BPF skeleton 'bperf_cgroup_bpf': -22
Failed to load cgroup skeleton

The section name should be 'perf_event' (without the trailing 's').
Although it's related to the libbpf change, it'd be better fix the
section name in the first place.
