Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo ff7a4f98d5 perf trace: Allow dumping a BPF map after setting up BPF events
Initial use case:

Dumping the maps setup by tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c,
which so far are just booleans, showing just non-zeroed entries:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	dump-obj = true
	clang-opt = -g
  [trace]
	#add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
	add_events = /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  $ date
  Tue Feb 19 16:29:33 -03 2019
  $ ls -la /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 14048 Jan 24 12:09 /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  $ file /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
  /wb/augmented_raw_syscalls.o: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, eBPF, version 1 (SYSV), with debug_info, not stripped
  $
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump foobar
  ERROR: BPF map "foobar" not found
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump filtered_pids
  ERROR: BPF map "filtered_pids" not found
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump pids_filtered
  [2583] = 1,
  [2267] = 1,
  ^Z
  [1]+  Stopped                 trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump pids_filtered
  # pidof trace
  2267
  # ps ax|grep gnome-terminal|grep -v grep
  2583 ?        Ssl   58:33 /usr/libexec/gnome-terminal-server
  ^C
  # trace -e recvmmsg,sendmmsg --map-dump syscalls
  [299] = 1,
  [307] = 1,
  ^C
  # grep x64_recvmmsg arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
  299	64	recvmmsg		__x64_sys_recvmmsg
  # grep x64_sendmmsg arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
  307	64	sendmmsg		__x64_sys_sendmmsg
  #

Next step probably will be something like 'perf stat's --interval-print and
--interval-clear.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
