Subject: [PATCH v2 bpf-next 0/3] libbpf: add perf buffer abstraction and API

This patchset adds a high-level API for setting up and polling perf buffers
associated with BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map. Details of APIs are
described in corresponding commit.

Patch #1 adds a set of APIs to set up and work with perf buffer.
Patch #2 enhances libbpf to supprot auto-setting PERF_EVENT_ARRAY map size.
Patch #3 adds test.

Andrii Nakryiko (3):
  libbpf: add perf buffer API
  libbpf: auto-set PERF_EVENT_ARRAY size to number of CPUs
  selftests/bpf: test perf buffer API
