About BPFCompat by Kernel Guard
BPFCompat by Kernel Guard helps teams validate compiled eBPF artifacts before release by testing them against real Linux kernel targets and publishing clear compatibility results through GitHub Checks.
Capabilities
BPFCompat by Kernel Guard provides CI-first compatibility validation for compiled eBPF artifacts. It is designed to help maintainers verify whether their .bpf.o programs can load and attach across the Linux kernels they actually care about before a release reaches production.
The GitHub App connects repository workflows to BPFCompat validation and reports compatibility outcomes through GitHub Checks.
Key capabilities:
• Validate compiled eBPF artifacts against real Linux kernel targets • Detect verifier, BTF, CO-RE, map, program, and attach-point compatibility issues • Report pass/fail results directly in GitHub Checks • Support release and pull request gating for eBPF projects • Provide actionable failure context instead of static compatibility assumptions
Benefits
Kernel compatibility is one of the hardest release risks for eBPF-based software. CO-RE improves portability, but it does not guarantee that an artifact will load, attach, or behave correctly on every target kernel.
BPFCompat gives teams empirical compatibility evidence before shipping. This helps maintainers reduce regressions, document supported kernel targets, and catch kernel-specific failures earlier in the development lifecycle.
Intended users
BPFCompat is intended for eBPF developers, observability teams, security tooling maintainers, platform engineering teams, and organizations shipping BPF-based agents across diverse Linux distributions.

Ranking history
Filled points are observed values; hollow points come from Internet Archive snapshots of the listing page. Dashed segments span periods with no observations — values between points are not interpolated.
Each band is one page of 20. Installs on a log scale. Placement is projected from installs, so it can differ from the marketplace's own sort order. Hover a dot to see the listing.
