A more fitting comparison would be the kernel refusing to add a new uAPI call because some application refuses to bundle the kernel. A libbpf equivalent of a kernel module would be some kind of libbpf plugin (which does not exist), asking for an internal libbpf API to be added. Alexei, could you please start cooperating with others and actually listening to others' needs? I know you started eBPF but you're not the only user anymore and as much convinced you may be about your view, people have reasons for what they're doing. It would help greatly if you could listen to these reasons. Jiri
