BPF landing pads let unwinds run cleanup for Rust panics
Kernel and libbpf support for compiler-emitted cleanup tables lets bpf_unwind() release locks and Drop-owned state instead of discarding frames.

BTF gains compact encoding for inline function probe sites
Alan Maguire's bpf-next series lets tracers attach kprobe-style instrumentation at inlined call sites without ballooning type data.
By kexecBPF gains callx for indirect subprogram calls
Alexei Starovoitov’s verifier, JIT, and libbpf work lets programs invoke static functions through pointers in tables and vtables.
By oopsBPF exception unwinds gain cleanup pads for Rust Drop
Yonghong Song’s bpf-next series makes bpf_throw() run compiler-emitted landing pads so resource-owning frames can release locks and values on the way out.
By oopsBPF gains indirect subprogram calls via new callx instruction
Alexei Starovoitov’s series lets the verifier and JITs accept LLVM’s function-pointer calls, unlocking vtables and dispatch tables in BPF C and Rust.
By oopsBPF exception cleanups unlock Rust Drop on bpf_throw() unwind
The kernel and libbpf now run compiler-emitted landing pads when bpf_throw() walks the stack, so frames can release RCU locks and other owned resources.

Yonghong Song's bpf-next series lets bpf_throw() run compiler-emitted landing pads so frames can release locks and owned objects on the way out.
By kexecBTF patches aim to let BPF tracers reach inlined functions
Alan Maguire proposes compact location metadata so kprobes can recover parameters at inline sites without ballooning kernel BTF.
By oopsBPF gains global per-CPU variables in a .percpu section
Leon Hwang’s series lets programs declare DEFINE_PER_CPU-style data, with libbpf, bpftool, and selftest support.
