perf stat -e cpu/uops_executed.core,cmask=1/
would be detected as a BPF source event because the .c matches the .c
source BPF pattern.
v2:
Originally I tried to use lex lookahead, but it doesn't seem to work.
This now extends the BPF pattern to match longer events, but then does
an extra check in the C code to reject BPF matches that do not end with
.c/.o/.obj
This uses REJECT, which makes the flex scanner slower, but that
shouldn't be a big problem for the perf events.
Committer testing:
# perf trace -e write -e /home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null
0.000 ( 0.006 ms): cat/18485 write(fd: 1, buf: 0x7f59eebe1000, count: 3494 ) ...
0.006 ( ): raw_syscalls:sys_enter:NR 1 (1, 7f59eebe1000, da6, 22, 7f59eebe0010, 0))
0.008 ( ): perf_bpf_probe:_write:(ffffffff9626b2c0))
0.000 ( 0.010 ms): cat/18485 ... [continued]: write()) = 3494
#
It continues doing what was expected, i.e. identifying
/home/acme/bpf/tracepoint.c as a BPF event and activates the clang
machinery to build an eBPF object and then uses sys_bpf() to hook it up
to the raw_syscalls:sys_enter tracepoint, etc.
Andi forgot to add Wang to the CC list, fix it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
