Source: linux Version: 4.16.5-1 Followup-For: Bug #896165 control: severity -1 important
Dear Maintainers, I would like to add the packaging of a direct dependency to the list: libbpf. This library is most useful for using currently ongoing extensions of the linux kernel towards a new high-speed packet processing layer called XDP which uses eBPF. One software currently in Debian that might directly benefit from this library is suricata (https://suricata.readthedocs.io/en/latest/capture-hardware/ebpf- xdp.html). Please consider to maybe include this library in your current endeavors to allow us supporting this feature in the suricata package and future software to come. Thank you, Robert Haist
