samples: bpf: add bpf_perf_event_output example
Performance test and example of bpf_perf_event_output(). kprobe is attached to sys_write() and trivial bpf program streams pid+cookie into userspace via PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT event. Usage: $ sudo ./bld_x64/samples/bpf/trace_output recv 2968913 events per sec Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
