Hi Peter, Dave,

this patch set is a follow up to the discussion:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/4/304
It turned out to be simpler than what we discussed.

Patches 1-3 is a bpf-side prep for the main patch 4
that adds bpf program as an overflow_handler to sw and hw perf_events.
Peter, please review.

Patches 5 and 6 are tests/examples from myself and Brendan.

Brendan, so this works for you without extra hacks required?

Yes, thanks for checking, I've done both IP and stack sampling so far with it.
