Will be used shortly in the augmented syscalls work together with a
PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT software event to insert syscalls + pointer
contents in the perf ring buffer, to be consumed by 'perf trace'
beautifiers.

That, together with the map __bpf_output__ that is already handled by
'perf trace' to print that event's contents as strings provides a
debugging facility, to show it in use, print a simple string everytime
the syscalls:sys_enter_openat() syscall tracepoint is hit:
# cat tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int syscall_enter(openat)(void *args)
{
puts("Hello, world\n");
return 0;
}
license(GPL);
#
# perf trace -e openat,tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null
0.016 ( ): __bpf_stdout__:Hello, world
0.018 ( 0.010 ms): cat/9079 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /etc/ld.so.cache, flags: CLOEXEC) = 3

This is part of an ongoing experimentation on making eBPF scripts as
consumed by perf to be as concise as possible and using familiar
concepts such as stdio.h functions, that end up just wrapping the
existing BPF functions, trying to hide as much boilerplate as possible
while using just conventions and C preprocessor tricks.

A helper structure used by eBPF C program to describe map attributes to
elf_bpf loader, to be used initially by the special __bpf_stdout__ map
used to print strings into the perf ring buffer in BPF scripts, e.g.:
Using the upcoming stdio.h and puts() macros to use the __bpf_stdout__
map to add strings to the ring buffer:
# cat tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c
#include <stdio.h>
int syscall_enter(openat)(void *args)
{
puts("Hello, world\n");
return 0;
}
license(GPL);
#
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
dump-obj = true
# perf trace -e openat,tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c/call-graph=dwarf/ cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null

Allowing one to hook into the syscalls:sys_enter_NAME tracepoints,
an example is provided that hooks into the 'openat' syscall.
Using it with the probe:vfs_getname probe into getname_flags to get the
filename args as it is copied from userspace:
# perf probe -l
probe:vfs_getname (on getname_flags:73@acme/git/linux/fs/namei.c with pathname)
# perf trace -e probe:*getname,tools/perf/examples/bpf/sys_enter_openat.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null

The next example scripts need the definition for the BPF functions, i.e.
things like BPF_FUNC_probe_read, and in time will require lots of other
definitions found in uapi/linux/bpf.h, so include it from the bpf.h file
included from the eBPF scripts build with clang via '-e bpf_script.c'
like in this example:
$ tail -8 tools/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
#include <bpf.h>
int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
{
return sec == 5;
}
license(GPL);
$
That 'bpf.h' include in the 5sec.c eBPF example will come from a set of
header files crafted for building eBPF objects, that in a end-user
system will come from:
/usr/lib/perf/include/bpf/bpf.h
And will include <uapi/linux/bpf.h> either from the place where the
kernel was built, or from a kernel-devel rpm package like:
-working-directory /lib/modules/4.17.9-100.fc27.x86_64/build
That is set up by tools/perf/util/llvm-utils.c, and can be overriden
by setting the 'kbuild-dir' variable in the "llvm" ~/.perfconfig file,
like:
# cat ~/.perfconfig
[llvm]
kbuild-dir = /home/foo/git/build/linux
This usually doesn't need any change, just documenting here my findings
while working with this code.
In the future we may want to instead just use what is in
/usr/include/linux/bpf.h, that comes from the UAPI provided from the
kernel sources, for now, to avoid getting the kernel's non-UAPI
"linux/bpf.h" file, that will cause clang to fail and is not what we
want anyway (no BPF function definitions, etc), do it explicitely by
asking for "uapi/linux/bpf.h".

So that kprobe definitions become:
int probe(function, variables)(void *ctx, int err, var1, var2, ...)
The existing 5sec.c, got converted and goes from:
SEC("func=hrtimer_nanosleep rqtp->tv_sec")
int func(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
{
}
To:
int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec)
{
}
If we decide to add tv_nsec as well, then it becomes:
$ cat tools/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
#include <bpf.h>
int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec rqtp->tv_nsec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec, long nsec)
{
return sec == 5;
}
license(GPL);
$
And if we run it, system wide as before and run some 'sleep' with values
for the tv_nsec field, we get:
# perf trace --no-syscalls -e tools/perf/examples/bpf/5sec.c
0.000 perf_bpf_probe:hrtimer_nanosleep:(ffffffff9811b5f0) tv_sec=5 tv_nsec=100000000
9641.650 perf_bpf_probe:hrtimer_nanosleep:(ffffffff9811b5f0) tv_sec=5 tv_nsec=123450001

So, the first helper is the one shortening a variable/function section
attribute, from, for instance:
char _license[] __attribute__((section("license"), used)) = "GPL";
to:
char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
Convert empty.c to that and it becomes:
# cat ~acme/lib/examples/perf/bpf/empty.c
#include <bpf.h>
char _license[] SEC("license") = "GPL";
int _version SEC("version") = LINUX_VERSION_CODE;
