Subject[PATCH v2 3/3] perf-stat: introduce config stat.bpf-counter-events
Date
Currently, to use BPF to aggregate perf event counters, the user uses
--bpf-counters option. Enable "use bpf by default" events with a config
option, stat.bpf-counter-events. This is limited to hardware events in
evsel__hw_names.

This also enables mixed BPF event and regular event in the same sesssion.
For example:

perf config stat.bpf-counter-events=instructions
perf stat -e instructions,cs

The second command will use BPF for "instructions" but not "cs".

Use BPF programs to aggregate readings from perf_events. This
allows multiple perf-stat sessions that are counting the same metric (cycles,
instructions, etc.) to share hardware counters.
+ To use BPF programs on common hardware events by default, use
