/// A map that can be used to receive events from eBPF programs using the linux [`perf`] API.
///
/// Each element of a [`PerfEventArray`] is a separate [`PerfEventArrayBuffer`] which can be used
/// to receive events sent by eBPF programs that use `bpf_perf_event_output()`.
///
/// To receive events you need to:
/// * call [`PerfEventArray::open`]
/// * poll the returned [`PerfEventArrayBuffer`] to be notified when events are
///   inserted in the buffer
/// * call [`PerfEventArrayBuffer::read_events`] to read the events
///
/// # Minimum kernel version
///
/// The minimum kernel version required to use this feature is 4.3.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// A common way to use a perf array is to have one perf buffer for each
/// available CPU:
///
/// ```no_run
/// # use aya::maps::perf::PerfEventArrayBuffer;
/// # use aya::maps::MapData;
/// # use std::borrow::BorrowMut;
/// # struct Poll<T> { _t: std::marker::PhantomData<T> };
/// # impl<T: BorrowMut<MapData>> Poll<T> {
/// #    fn poll_readable(&self) -> &mut [PerfEventArrayBuffer<T>] {
/// #        &mut []
/// #    }
/// # }
/// # fn poll_buffers<T: BorrowMut<MapData>>(bufs: Vec<PerfEventArrayBuffer<T>>) -> Poll<T> {
/// #    Poll { _t: std::marker::PhantomData }
/// # }
/// # #[derive(thiserror::Error, Debug)]
/// # enum Error {
/// #    #[error(transparent)]
/// #    IO(#[from] std::io::Error),
/// #    #[error(transparent)]
/// #    Map(#[from] aya::maps::MapError),
/// #    #[error(transparent)]
/// #    Ebpf(#[from] aya::EbpfError),
/// #    #[error(transparent)]
/// #    PerfBuf(#[from] aya::maps::perf::PerfBufferError),
/// # }
/// # let mut bpf = aya::Ebpf::load(&[])?;
/// use aya::maps::PerfEventArray;
/// use aya::util::online_cpus;
/// use bytes::BytesMut;
///
/// let mut perf_array = PerfEventArray::try_from(bpf.map_mut("EVENTS").unwrap())?;
///
/// // eBPF programs are going to write to the EVENTS perf array, using the id of the CPU they're
/// // running on as the array index.
/// let mut perf_buffers = Vec::new();
/// for cpu_id in online_cpus().map_err(|(_, error)| error)? {
///     // this perf buffer will receive events generated on the CPU with id cpu_id
///     perf_buffers.push(perf_array.open(cpu_id, None)?);
/// }
///
/// let mut out_bufs = [BytesMut::with_capacity(1024)];
///
/// // poll the buffers to know when they have queued events
/// let poll = poll_buffers(perf_buffers);
/// loop {
///     for read_buf in poll.poll_readable() {
///         read_buf.read_events(&mut out_bufs)?;
///         // process out_bufs
///     }
/// }
///
/// # Ok::<(), Error>(())
/// ```
///
/// # Polling and avoiding lost events
///
/// In the example above the implementation of `poll_buffers()` and `poll.poll_readable()` is not
/// given. [`PerfEventArrayBuffer`] implements the [`AsRawFd`] trait, so you can implement polling
/// using any crate that can poll file descriptors, like [epoll], [mio] etc.
///
/// Perf buffers are internally implemented as ring buffers. If your eBPF programs produce large
/// amounts of data, in order not to lose events you might want to process each
/// [`PerfEventArrayBuffer`] on a different thread.
///
/// # Async
///
/// If you are using [tokio] or [async-std], you should use `AsyncPerfEventArray` which
/// efficiently integrates with those and provides a nicer `Future` based API.
