Hello: This series was applied to bpf/bpf-next.git (master) by Daniel Borkmann [off-list ref]: On Thu, 13 Aug 2026 11:05:35 +0000 you wrote:
This patch series introduces bpf_ksock, a set of BPF kfuncs to allow BPF programs to create UDP sockets and send data. This provides a mechanism for BPF LSM progs to emit telemetry over UDP independently of userspace. The main use case is to be able to completely dispense with agents/daemons for BPF programs after startup. In the case of Isovalent's Tetragon, the idea would be to be able to emit security alerts or export data from BPF even when the agent is down. For meta, according to Liam presentation[^2], this could replace logging via ringbuffers which created cross-binary versioning issues. [...]
