And then the BPF program I was using to test this had BTF encoded from
DWARF by pahole, so only associated to BPF maps, not to BPF programs, as
soon as I regenerated that BPF .o with clang 9.0, I got the BTF info for
the BPF programs and all works as expected:

[root@quaco perf]# clang --version
clang version 9.0.0 (https://git.llvm.org/git/clang.git/ 7906282d3afec5dfdc2b27943fd6c0309086c507) (https://git.llvm.org/git/llvm.git/ a1b5de1ff8ae8bc79dc8e86e1f82565229bd0500)

[root@quaco perf]# perf record -e /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.c sleep 1

add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
[root@quaco perf]#
[root@quaco perf]# perf trace -e recvmmsg

Then, while this runs, using that augmented_raw_syscalls.o BPF program
generated with clang 9.0 and with proper BTF for BPF programs and not
just for BPF maps:

[root@quaco ~]# bpftool map dump pids_filtered
[{
"key": 22459,
"value": true
},{
"key": 2592,
"value": true
}
]
[root@quaco ~]#

[root@quaco ~]# perf record sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.020 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
[root@quaco ~]# perf report --header-only | grep b[pt]f

Moving along the patch queue...
