linux VS ebpf

Oh, no I don't mean that arbitrary Go compiles to eBPF. Apologies if I gave that impression. I meant that there are libraries that let you compose eBPF programs in other languages. But you're still putting together an eBPF program, just like you can assemble JSON with Go but you can't compile an arbitrary Go program to JSON.

Cilium's eBPF library is the Go one I had in mind: https://github.com/cilium/ebpf

Here's an example from that repo: https://github.com/cilium/ebpf/tree/main/examples/ringbuffer

Hey there! Of course. There are a few good examples here and here. Yes, they're specific tools (which I, by the way, do recommend), but you can have a look at the BPF code here as well.

ebpf-go by Cilium which is a pure-Go library to read, modify and load eBPF programs and attach them to various hooks in the Linux kernel.

cilium is probably the best one that has the widest use and is supported by cloudflare.

libbpfgo ebpf

Go library that provides utilities for loading, compiling, and debugging eBPF programs [https://github.com/cilium/ebpf]

The error I get is "could not import github.com/cilium/ebpf (no package for import github.com/cilium/ebpf". I have the variable lsp-go-library-directories-include-go-modules set to t and the directory $GOPATH/pkg/mod/github.com/cilium/[email protected] exists and has the correct code in it. What am I missing to make LSP pick up these libraries?

If you want to run something like monitoring or diagnostic code, maybe you could achieve something like this with eBPF (see https://github.com/cilium/ebpf).
