struct bpf_perf_event_value is being used in the kernel only when
CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS is enabled, so it misses a BTF entry then.
Define struct bpf_perf_event_value___local with the
`preserve_access_index` attribute inside the pid_iter BPF prog to
allow compiling on any configs. It is a full mirror of a UAPI
structure, so is compatible both with and w/o CO-RE.
bpf_perf_event_read_value() requires a pointer of the original type,
so a cast is needed.Hi Alexander, What's the status of this series? I wasn't able to find a v3 on lore. We received a report that OpenMandriva is carrying around this patch. https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1805. + Tomasz Tomasz, do you have more info which particular configs can reproduce this issue? Is this patch still necessary?
