Ok but you can like put a tracepoint on read/write and peek at what’s going through those, no?

[madog]

Nope. Tracepoint eBPF programs require root to load always. For eBPF you select a program type, and that limits what you can do (aka what helper functions are available to you) and what privileges are required.

I have no idea, because every system I've ever worked on has disabled unprivileged eBPF.
