No we can't. filters can only be set to tracepoint events, but 
bpf-output is a
software event.

In addition, you don't need
   ... --ev 'perf_bpf_probe:*' ...

because they should be already collected by '--ev ./test_bpf_output_3.c'.

You don't see them because the two kprobe events are filtered out by BPF 
program.
See 'return 0' in func.

Thank you.
