The eBPF Foundation’s 2025 Year in Review – eBPF

The eBPF Foundation's 2025 achievements include funding upstream kernel development for testing infrastructure and cross-architecture parity, receiving $228,200 for security auditing and runtime hardening, awarding $100,000 in academic research grants, and publishing case studies showing production impact at Meta, Datadog, Alibaba Cloud, and others. The foundation launched a Community & Advocacy Fellowship, introduced a meetup program, and sponsored major Linux conferences. Key technical improvements focused on test coverage, BTF tooling, trampoline optimizations, and working toward x86-64/ARM64 feature parity.
