I would have thought eBPF is the thing that might have prevented the CrowdStrike issue.

  They triggered a bug in ebpf implementation. Quite impressive actually

    Wasn't this an issue in Windows? I know there is an ebpf compatibly layer of sorts - but wasn't aware that was being used by crowdstrike.

      Yeah, I think they are confusing the (far more limited) issue with RedHat that CrowdStrike triggered last month, with the Windows issue. Based on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41033579 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41033579 Windows does not have ebpf yet and even once they do have it, it will not have as complete of coverage as in Linux for a while, so would not necessarily prevent this.
