BPF for Hid Drivers
In the same way out-of-tree kernel modules are enforced to license themselves as GPL if they intend to use a lot (if not most) of the available functionality, eBPF programs fall under the same restrictions.
bpftool[0] allows to see which the programs are currently running in your system, their bpf asm instructions and whether they are GPL-compliant through `bpftool prog show`
Of course, we still need companies to actually release the source code of their eBPF programs somewhere for the promise to be fulfilled.

How to tell what created/owns each BPF program running in my system ?
Your distro might not ship the newer version but source is available on Github so you don't have to pull the entire kernel repo to build it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing bpftune and bpftool you can also consider the following projects:
bmc-cache - In-kernel cache based on eBPF.
libbpf - Automated upstream mirror for libbpf stand-alone build.
traffico - Shape your traffic the BPF way
TripleCross - A Linux eBPF rootkit with a backdoor, C2, library injection, execution hijacking, persistence and stealth capabilities.
