Song Liu 792caccc45 bpf: Introduce BPF_F_PRESERVE_ELEMS for perf event array
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.

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.
