samples/bpf: add tracepoint vs kprobe performance tests
the first microbenchmark does fd=open("/proc/self/comm"); for() { write(fd, "test"); } and on 4 cpus in parallel: writes per sec base (no tracepoints, no kprobes) 930k with kprobe at __set_task_comm() 420k with tracepoint at task:task_rename 730k For kprobe + full bpf program manully fetches oldcomm, newcomm via bpf_probe_read. For tracepint bpf program does nothing, since arguments are copied by tracepoint. 2nd microbenchmark does: fd=open("/dev/urandom"); for() { read(fd, buf); } and on 4 cpus in parallel: reads per sec base (no tracepoints, no kprobes) 300k with kprobe at urandom_read() 279k with tracepoint at random:urandom_read 290k bpf progs attached to kprobe and tracepoint are noop.
