Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 5834da7f10 perf trace: Add BPF handler for unaugmented syscalls
Will be used to assign to syscalls that don't need augmentation, i.e.
those with just integer args.

All syscalls will be in a BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY, and the
bpf_tail_call() keyed by the syscall id will either find nothing in
place, which means the syscall is being filtered, or a function that
will either add things like filenames to the ring buffer, right after
the raw syscall args, or be this unaugmented handler that will just
return 1, meaning don't filter the original
raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} tracepoint.

For now it is not really being used, this is just leg work to break the
patch into smaller pieces.

It introduces a trace__find_bpf_program_by_title() helper that in turn
uses libbpf's bpf_object__find_program_by_title() on the BPF object with
the __augmented_syscalls__ map. "title" is how libbpf calls the SEC()
argument for functions, i.e. the ELF section that follows a convention
to specify what BPF program (a function with this SEC() marking) should
be connected to which tracepoint, kprobes, etc.

In perf anything that is of the form SEC("sys:event_name") will be
connected to that tracepoint by perf's BPF loader.

In this case its something that will be bpf_tail_call()ed from either
the "raw_syscalls:sys_enter" or "raw_syscall:sys_exit" tracepoints, so
its named "!raw_syscalls:unaugmented" to convey that idea, i.e. its not
going to be directly attached to a tracepoint, thus it starts with a
"!".

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.
