    selftests/bpf: add multi-uprobe benchmarks · f727b13d

    Add multi-uprobe and multi-uretprobe benchmarks to bench tool.
    Multi- and classic uprobes/uretprobes have different low-level
    triggering code paths, so it's sometimes important to be able to
    benchmark both flavors of uprobes/uretprobes.
    
    Sample examples from my dev machine below. Single-threaded peformance
    almost doesn't differ, but with more parallel CPUs triggering the same
    uprobe/uretprobe the difference grows. This might be due to [0], but
    given the code is slightly different, there could be other sources of
    slowdown.
    
    Note, all these numbers will change due to ongoing work to improve
    uprobe/uretprobe scalability (e.g., [1]), but having benchmark like this
    is useful for measurements and debugging nevertheless.
    
    \#!/bin/bash
    set -eufo pipefail
    for p in 1 8 16 32; do
        for i in uprobe-nop uretprobe-nop uprobe-multi-nop uretprobe-multi-nop; do
            summary=$(sudo ./bench -w1 -d3 -p$p -a trig-$i | tail -n1)
            total=$(echo "$summary" | cut -d'(' -f1 | cut -d' ' -f3-)
            percpu=$(echo "$summary" | cut -d'(' -f2 | cut -d')' -f1 | cut -d'/' -f1)
            printf "%-21s (%2d cpus): %s (%s/s/cpu)\n" $i $p "$total" "$percpu"
        done
        echo
    done
