perf bpf: Do not attach a BPF prog to a tracepoint if its name starts with !
With BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY + bpf_tail_call() we want to have BPF programs, i.e. functions in a object file that perf's BPF loader shouldn't try to attach to anything, i.e. "!syscalls:sys_enter_open" should just stay there, not be attached to a tracepoint with that name, it'll be used by, for instance, 'perf trace' to associate with syscalls that copy, in addition to the syscall raw args, a filename pointed by the first arg, i.e. multiple syscalls that need copying the same pointer arg in the same way, as a filename, for instance, will share the same BPF program/function. Right now when perf's BPF loader sees a function with a name "sys:name" it'll look for a tracepoint and will associate that BPF program with it, say: SEC("raw_syscalls:sys_enter") int sys_enter(struct syscall_enter_args *args) { //SNIP } Will crate a perf_evsel tracepoint event and then associate with it that BPF program. This convention at some point will switch to the one used by the BPF loader in libbpf, but to experiment with BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY in 'perf trace' lets do this, that will not require changing too much stuff.
