[PATCH v2 2/3] perf/bpf: Allow a bpf program to suppress all sample side effects.

[Kyle Huey]

Returning zero from a bpf program attached to a perf event already
suppresses any data output. By clearing pending_kill, returning zero from a
bpf program will effectively pretend the sample never happened for all
userspace purposes.
