[PATCH v1 3/4] perf bpf examples: With no BPF events remove examples

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Thu Aug 10 2023 - 14:49:29 EST


The examples were used to give demonstrations of BPF events but such
functionality is now subsumed by using --filter with perf record or
the direct use of BPF skeletons.

- Description:
-
- . Disable strace like syscall tracing (--no-syscalls), or try tracing
- just some (-e *sleep).
-
- . Attach a filter function to a kernel function, returning when it should
- be considered, i.e. appear on the output.
-
- . Run it system wide, so that any sleep of >= 5 seconds and < than 6
- seconds gets caught.
-
- . Ask for callgraphs using DWARF info, so that userspace can be unwound
-
- . While this is running, run something like "sleep 5s".
-
- . If we decide to add tv_nsec as well, then it becomes:
-
- int probe(hrtimer_nanosleep, rqtp->tv_sec rqtp->tv_nsec)(void *ctx, int err, long sec, long nsec)
-
- I.e. add where it comes from (rqtp->tv_nsec) and where it will be
- accessible in the function body (nsec)
