Subject: [PATCH net-next] bpf: update perf event helper function signature and documentation
Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 00:39:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E796EF36-C195-4FFA-AAA0-A1F9E7730349@fb.com> (raw)
From: Teng Qin <qinteng@fb.com>
This commit updates function signature of the bpf_perf_event_output and
bpf_perf_event_read helpers to match their implementation. Also updates
their documentation in the header files.
Signed-off-by: Teng Qin <qinteng@fb.com>
