perf bpf: Add struct bpf_map struct
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
