[PATCH perf/core 00/11] uprobes: Add unique uprobe

[Jiri Olsa]

hi,
this patchset adds unique uprobe and support to change userspace
task's registers from within bpf uprobe program.

We recently had several requests for tetragon to be able to change
user application function return value or divert its execution through
instruction pointer change.

v1 changes (from rfc [1]):
- added unique probe support
- added more tests

thanks,
jirka
