✨ OPENSNITCH-EBPF_MODULES ✨

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for opensnitch-ebpf-modules, which lives in the General Commands Manual section. one (1) page, all about the eBPF kernel modules. let's get into it πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

opensnitch-ebpf-modules β€” GNU/Linux interactive firewall application


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so basically, opensnitch-ebpf-modules is the whole eBPF kernel modules situation for intercepting network connections. it's giving performance and reliability, fr fr β€” better on both counts, no cap.

the modules get installed under /usr/lib/opensnitchd/ebpf/, that's their lil home 🏠


πŸ’€ KNOWN BUGS πŸ’€

okay so this is the part where we gotta be honest, and it's lowkey tragic 😭

when your computer comes back from suspend state, the eBPF modules just… stop working. they don't wake up with you. they ghost you.

and the only solution for now β€” literally the only one β€” is to restart the daemon when the computer wakes up:

not me having to restart a daemon every single time my laptop wakes up πŸ™ˆ that's the whole fix rn, periodt.
