-The `in_ebpf` input plugin is an **experimental** plugin for Fluent Bit that uses eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) to capture low-level system events. This plugin allows Fluent Bit to monitor kernel-level activities such as process executions, file accesses, memory allocations, network connections, and signal handling. It provides valuable insights into system behavior for debugging, monitoring, and security analysis.

+The `in_ebpf` plugin leverages eBPF to trace kernel events in real-time. By specifying trace points, users can collect targeted system-level metrics and events, giving visibility into operating system interactions and performance characteristics.
