Hi Ingo,
Please take a look at the changeset comments, I made notes in most of them, this seems like a nice cutoff point to allow basic testing, by developers, for the very basic integration of perf and ebpf, i.e. we can, having a ready built object file, built with clang, be able to use it as a perf event, passing it via -e/--event, etc.
Wang has lots more in the queue and I intend to work on them till I get all reviewed/tested/merged, i.e. in the immediate future.
What do you think? Fair to get his smaller gulp now? Or do you want to get it all the way with the code to get a .c file, build it, etc, that is ready, but I haven't reviewed/tested yet?
Ah, this is on top of what I sent to you via perf/core yesterday.
Thanks,
- Arnaldo

perf bpf: Collect perf_evsel in BPF object files (2015-10-28 13:11:59 -0300)
---------------------------------------------------------------- perf/ebpf basic integration
Please see the changeset comments, but this is the very basic integration of perf with libbpf that, given a .o file built for the 'bpf' target with clang, will get it validated and loaded into the kernel via the sys_bpf syscall, which can be seen using 'perf trace' to trace the whole thing looking just for the bpf and perf_event_open syscalls:

More work is about to be reviewed, tested and merged that will allow the whole process of going from a .c file to an .o file via clang, etc to be done automagically. (Wang Nan)
