[PATCH 3/3] perf stat: Enable BPF counter with --for-each-cgroup

Namhyung Kim
2021-06-22T07:13:39Z

Recently bperf was added to use BPF to count perf events for various
purposes. This is an extension for the approach and targetting to
cgroup usages.

Unlike the other bperf, it doesn't share the events with other
processes but it'd reduce unnecessary events (and the overhead of
multiplexing) for each monitored cgroup within the perf session.

When --for-each-cgroup is used with --bpf-counters, it will open
cgroup-switches event per cpu internally and attach the new BPF
program to read given perf_events and to aggregate the results for
cgroups. It's only called when task is switched to a task in a
different cgroup.
