Subject: [PATCH v2 09/12] perf trace: Switch user option to use BPF filter
Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2025 10:36:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250410173631.1713627-10-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250410173631.1713627-1-irogers@google.com>
Finding user processes by scanning /proc is inherently racy and
results in perf_event_open failures. Use a BPF filter to drop samples
where the uid doesn't match. Ensure adding the BPF filter forces
system-wide.
