[PATCH 14/31] perf tools: Add BPF_PROLOGUE config options for further patches

Show all headers | View raw

If both LIBBPF and DWARF are detected, it is possible to create prologue
for eBPF programs to help them accessing kernel data. HAVE_BPF_PROLOGUE
and CONFIG_BPF_PROLOGUE is added as flags for this feature.

PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET indicates an architecture
supports converting name of a register to its offset in
'struct pt_regs'. Without this support, BPF_PROLOGUE should be turned off.

HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET is introduced as the corresponding
CFLAGS of PERF_HAVE_ARCH_REGS_QUERY_REGISTER_OFFSET.
