A Bootlin engineer reports on attending the LSFMMBPF 2026 conference in Zagreb, focusing on the eBPF track. The post covers the nature of the invitation-only workshop-style event and highlights ongoing work on adding KASAN memory checker support for eBPF programs — a kernel developer tool aimed at detecting bugs in eBPF-related kernel code such as the verifier. The project, a collaboration between Bootlin, the eBPF Foundation, and Alpha-Omega Foundation, has progressed through an RFC, a proof-of-concept patch, and conference feedback that validated the implementation direction and refined key design decisions.
