Red Hat Eyeing Innovative eBPF Uses For Linux’s HID Subsystem

eBPF for sandboxed programs running in the kernel have shown to be very useful beyond the original BPF origins in the networking subsystem to also be very practical for other security, tracing, and other general use-cases for an in-kernel JIT virtual machine. Red Hat has sent out initial patches extending eBPF for making use of it within the HID subsystem for input devices.
