[PATCH v5 bpf-next 1/2] bpf: introduce BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS for perf event array

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, perf event in perf event array is removed from the array when
the map fd used to add the event is closed. This behavior makes it
difficult to the share perf events with perf event array.

Introduce perf event map that keeps the perf event open with a new flag
BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS. With this flag set, perf events in the array are not
removed when the original map fd is closed. Instead, the perf event will
stay in the map until 1) it is explicitly removed from the array; or 2)
the array is freed.
