I write a lot of C and eBPF. I also co-created PythonBPF. Find my blogs at https://xeon.me

Just released PythonBPF v0.1.7
We now support a lot more helpers and pretty extensive support for a lot of vmlinux structs.

Just added typed scratch pool support for non-named arguments to helper functions in PythonBPF. Prior to this we only supported a scratch pool of i64 args.
I must also add a dedicated type conversion module later, having it all over the place is bad.

All support for all eBPF helpers by r41k0u · Pull Request #64 · pythonbpf/Python-BPF
This takes over from #63 to add support for all available eBPF helpers.

Got the first skb helper into PythonBPF - bpf_skb_store_bytes. Adding others would be easier now.

Added basic RingBuffer helpers to Python-BPF, specifically the output, reserve and submit helpers.
TODO: implement discard helper, add typecasting to struct for array returned by reserve, add userspace support in pylibbpf
github.com/pythonbpf/Py...
But we'll do stacktrace example first.

Added the ability to use user defined types (structs) to be used for key or value types in HashMaps in PythonBPF. Better late than never

cool milestone reached. You can now cast to a vmlinux struct in PythonBPF as well as use the fields of that struct! (Although it's limited to integers of all types, for now)
