Can LLMs Understand the Linux Kernel?
summary
A survey-driven pipeline uses language models plus agent workflows to label and quantify development activity across the Linux tree, producing a structured dataset and automated analyses. Applied to the eBPF subsystem, it processes hundreds of thousands commits with commit classification, tracks feature drift from networking to tracing/profiling/security, surfaces component coupling (userland libs, verifier, helpers) and shows verifier growth correlating with new instructions. The prototype runs end-to-end, yields reproducible metrics and still requires human validation on ambiguous cases.
