This patch enables perf-record to save bpf_prog_info information as
headers to perf.data. A new header type HEADER_BPF_PROG_INFO is
introduced for this data.
Committer testing:
As root, being on the kernel sources top level directory, run:
# perf trace -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c -e *msg
Just to compile and load a BPF program that attaches to the
raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} tracepoints to trace the syscalls ending
in "msg" (recvmsg, sendmsg, recvmmsg, sendmmsg, etc).
Then do a systemwide perf record session for a few seconds:
# perf record -a sleep 2s
Then look at:
# perf report --header-only | grep -i bpf
# bpf_prog_info of id 13
# bpf_prog_info of id 14
# bpf_prog_info of id 15
# bpf_prog_info of id 16
# bpf_prog_info of id 17
# bpf_prog_info of id 18
# bpf_prog_info of id 21
# bpf_prog_info of id 22
# bpf_prog_info of id 208
# bpf_prog_info of id 209
#
We need to show more info about these programs, like bpftool does for
the ones running on the system, i.e. 'perf record/perf report' become a
way of saving the BPF state in a machine to then analyse on another,
together with all the other information that is already saved in the
perf.data header:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
