Subject: [PATCH v2] perf test: Skip sigtrap test on old kernels

If it runs on an old kernel, perf_event_open would fail because of the
new fields sigtrap and sig_data. Just skipping the test could miss an
actual bug in the kernel.

Let's check BTF if it has the perf_event_attr.sigtrap field.

Do we need "#ifdef HAVE_BPF_SKEL" for the include part?

Other than this, looks good to me.

Right, it'd be better to move it under the #ifdef. Will change.

would it be easier to call perf_event_open for simple event with
sigtrap set (and perhaps remove_on_exec) ? perf_copy_attr checks
on reserved fields

Hmm.. right. we could do that too. But it might still fail if there's a
bug in the path handling in sigtrap even for the simple case. I'm not
sure if it's a realistic concern though. :)

I think we can do that when libbpf is not available.

Cool, at some point we'll probably move this to some other global place,
doing the lazy loading and keeping it in place as probably we'll use it
more often :-)

Waiting for v2.

Thanks for working on this.
