      perf tools: Compile scriptlets to BPF objects when passing '.c' to --event · d509db04
      Wang Nan 提交于
      This patch provides infrastructure for passing source files to --event
      directly using:
      
       # perf record --event bpf-file.c command
      
      This patch does following works:
      
       1) Allow passing '.c' file to '--event'. parse_events_load_bpf() is
          expanded to allow caller tell it whether the passed file is source
          file or object.
      
       2) llvm__compile_bpf() is called to compile the '.c' file, the result
          is saved into memory. Use bpf_object__open_buffer() to load the
          in-memory object.
      
      Introduces a bpf-script-example.c so we can manually test it:
      
       # perf record --clang-opt "-DLINUX_VERSION_CODE=0x40200" --event ./bpf-script-example.c sleep 1
      
      Note that '--clang-opt' must put before '--event'.
      
      Futher patches will merge it into a testcase so can be tested automatically.
