bpf: Add new bpf map type to store the pointer to struct perf_event
Introduce a new bpf map type 'BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY'. This map only stores the pointer to struct perf_event. The user space event FDs from perf_event_open() syscall are converted to the pointer to struct perf_event and stored in map. Signed-off-by: Kaixu Xia <xiakaixu@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
