      Look to enhance the operator with latest eBPF enhancements. This includes: 

       

      1. Bpfman( https://github.com/redhat-et/bpfd ) is a new framework aiming at simplifying, organizing and securing development of ebpf-based workloads and allows prioritizing on attach points.

      (Discussions are still ongoing about this framework and there is not yet a formal agreement that this is the way to go, but we should start doing a PoC to validate the approach.)

      2. Leverage Modern TCx hook in the latest kernel and RHEL 9.4 

       

       

      Followup on https://issues.redhat.com/browse/NETOBSERV-590  

       

      We also need to migrate existing eBPF TC hook to the new enhanced and better performing eBPF TCx hook supported in latest kernel and RHEL 9.4
