Hi All, has anyone encountered an issue with data encoding in bpf events tables like that? We face the issue on rhel8.6 servers with different osquery versions
a
Are there many processes being started/stopped?
What I’m trying to understand is how many ebpf events/s is handling (across all BPF tables)
We have better BPF support in the experimental features (see —help), but it was last tested on ubuntu 20.04 (or 21..)

I've posted the screenshot with an example event, just to express the issue. At the moment we have installed osquery on several RHEL8.6 servers, some have more more process / network activities, some less, but all are facing the same issue with BPF tables (no cmdline, and strange encoding in path).
a
Would you be able to report to us which kernel version is being used on that specific version?

We can't understand how we can include experimental table bpf_process_events_v2 in our build. Experimental branch was updated 5 years ago, so it should be built from master branch? We would be thankful for any hints.
kernel version: 4.18.0-372.9.1.el8.x86_64
oh, I've just found in #ebpf channel that it can be easily added by flag
--experiment_list=linuxevents
. It seams that this experimental table doesn't have the issue. All data is presented correctly there. Thank you
it's only pity that the table doesn't have uid or username of the user who run the process

Ah yes, it’s limited 😢 it was a spare time project I did and was hoping someone would fund it
