perf stat: Separate bperf from bpf_profiler
It seems that perf stat -b <prog id> doesn't produce any results:
$ perf stat -e cycles -b 4 -I 10000 -vvv
Control descriptor is not initialized
cycles: 0 0 0
time counts unit events
10.007641640 <not supported> cycles
Looks like this happens because fentry/fexit progs are getting loaded, but the
corresponding perf event is not enabled and not added into the events bpf map.
I think there is some mixing up between two type of bpf support, one for bperf
and one for bpf_profiler. Both are identified via evsel__is_bpf, based on which
perf events are enabled, but for the latter (bpf_profiler) a perf event is
required. Using evsel__is_bperf to check only bperf produces expected results:
$ perf stat -e cycles -b 4 -I 10000 -vvv
Control descriptor is not initialized

perf_event_attr:
size 136
sample_type IDENTIFIER
read_format TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING
disabled 1
exclude_guest 1
------------------------------------------------------------
sys_perf_event_open: pid -1 cpu 0 group_fd -1 flags 0x8 = 3
------------------------------------------------------------
[...perf_event_attr for other CPUs...]
------------------------------------------------------------
cycles: 309426 169009 169009
time counts unit events
10.010091271 309426 cycles
The final numbers correspond (at least in the level of magnitude) to the
same metric obtained via bpftool.
