perf tools: Save bpf_prog_info and BTF of new BPF programs
To fully annotate BPF programs with source code mapping, 4 different information are needed: 1) PERF_RECORD_KSYMBOL 2) PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT 3) bpf_prog_info 4) btf This patch handles 3) and 4) for BPF programs loaded after 'perf record|top'. For timely process of these information, a dedicated event is added to the side band evlist. When PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT is received via the side band event, the polling thread gathers 3) and 4) vis sys_bpf and store them in perf_env. This information is saved to perf.data at the end of 'perf record'. Committer testing: The 'wakeup_watermark' member in 'struct perf_event_attr' is inside a unnamed union, so can't be used in a struct designated initialization with older gccs, get it out of that, isolating as 'attr.wakeup_watermark = 1;' to work with all gcc versions. We also need to add '--no-bpf-event' to the 'perf record' perf_event_attr tests in 'perf test', as the way that that test goes is to intercept the events being setup and looking if they match the fields described in the control files, since now it finds first the side band event used to catch the PERF_RECORD_BPF_EVENT, they all fail. With these issues fixed: Same scenario as for testing BPF programs loaded before 'perf record' or 'perf top' starts, only start the BPF programs after 'perf record|top', so that its information get collected by the sideband threads, the rest works as for the programs loaded before start monitoring. Add missing 'inline' to the bpf_event__add_sb_event() when HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined, fixing the build in systems without binutils devel files installed.
