One of our longer-term plans is to make some sort of "libbpftrace" available, so that it'll be possible to create new bpftrace frontends with whatever customisations you want. Being able...

For completeness I'll just add that we use `BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF` instead of `BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY` on newer kernels. What's the use-case for introducing protections on bpftrace's maps? Are you running in a potentially...

@the-prachi We'd need a lot more detail on the reason for requesting this feature and how you'd expect it to work before we'd consider it for inclusion in bpftrace. Freeze...

Doesn't seem like it would have ever worked. Seems reasonable to swap out the `LIB*_FOUND` for `LIB*_LIBRARIES` to...

I'm not seeing a verifier error - I get an error from LLVM about using too much stack space before it gets to the kernel: ``` error: :0:0: in function...

If we can get the integration with cBPF working so that we can call out to externally-written functions, I'd say that `strcontains` would be a good candidate to remove from...
