Alexei Starovoitov f91840a32d perf, bpf: Add BPF support to all perf_event types
Allow BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program types to attach to all
perf_event types, including HW_CACHE, RAW, and dynamic pmu events.
Only tracepoint/kprobe events are treated differently which require
BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT/BPF_PROG_TYPE_KPROBE program types accordingly.

Also add support for reading all event counters using
bpf_perf_event_read() helper.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
