 * [Thales Group](https://www.thalesgroup.com) Thales is a global technology leader with more than 81,000 employees on five continents. The Thales Group is investing in digital and “deep tech” innovations – Big Data, artificial intelligence, connectivity, cybersecurity and quantum technology – to build a future we can all trust. In the past few years, the Cloud-Native paradigms and its frameworks and tools have challenged the way applications and services are developed, delivered, and instantiated. All sorts of services are container-based workloads managed by higher level layers of orchestration such as the Kubernetes environment.

 # Change Log

+## v0.37.0
+
+Released on 2024-01-30
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- The deprecated `rate-limiter` mechanism is removed as it is no longer used.
+  - the deprecated `outputs.rate` Falco config is removed.
+  - the deprecated `outputs.max_burst` Falco config is removed.
+- The deprecated `--userspace` CLI option is removed as it is no longer used.
+- The `falco-driver-loader` script will be removed and embedded into falcoctl. The new falcoctl driven implementation will drop:
+  - `--source-only` CLI option.
+  - `BPF_USE_LOCAL_KERNEL_SOURCES` environment variable.
+  - `DRIVER_CURL_OPTIONS` environment variable.
+  - `FALCO_BPF_PROBE` environment variable is not used by the new falcoctl driver loader, since it is already deprecated and will be removed in the next major version.
+  
+  Some env vars were renamed:
+  - `DRIVERS_REPO` env variable has been replaced by `FALCOCTL_DRIVER_NAME`  or `--name` command line argument for `falcoctl driver` command
+  - `DRIVERS_NAME` env variable has been replaced by `FALCOCTL_DRIVER_REPOS`, or `--repo` command line argument for `falcoctl driver` command
+  - `DRIVER_KERNEL_RELEASE` env variable has been replaced by `--kernelrelease` command line argument for `falcoctl driver install` command
+  - `DRIVER_KERNEL_VERSION` env variable has been replaced by `--kernelversion` command line argument for `falcoctl driver install` command
+  - `DRIVER_INSECURE_DOWNLOAD` env variable has been replaced by `--http-insecure` command line argument for `falcoctl driver install` command
+- Remove `-K/-k` options from Falco in favor of the new `k8smeta` plugin.
+- Drop plugins shipped with Falco since plugins are now be managed by falcoctl.
+- Falco 0.37.0 allows environment variables to be expanded even if they are part of a string. This introduces small breaking changes:
+  - Previously, environment variables used in YAML that were empty or defined as `“”` would be expanded to the default value. This was not consistent with the way YAML was handled in other cases, where we only returned the default values if the node was not defined. Now expanded env vars retain the same behavior of all other variables.
+  - Falco 0.37.0 will return default value for nodes that cannot be parsed to chosen type.
+  - `program_output` command will be env-expanded at init time, instead of letting `popen` and thus the `sh` shell expand it. This is technically a breaking change even if no behavioral change is expected. Also, you can avoid env var expansion by using `${{FOO}}` instead of `${FOO}`. It will resolve to `${FOO}` and won't be resolved to the env var value.

+
+
+## v0.36.0
+
+Released on 2023-09-26
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- The default rules file that is shipped in the Falco image and/or can be downloaded via falcoctl as `falco-rules` is now a _stable_ rule file. This file **contains a much smaller number of rules** that are less noisy and have been vetted by the community. This serves as a much requested "starter" Falco rule set that covers many common use case. The rest of that file has been expanded and split into `falco-incubating-rules` and `falco-sandbox-rules`. For more information, see the [rules repository](https://github.com/falcosecurity/rules)
+- The main `falcosecurity/falco` container image and its `falco-driver-loader` counterpart have been upgraded. Now they are able to compile the kernel module or classic eBPF probe for relatively newer version of the kernel (5.x and above) while we no longer ship toolchains to compile the kernel module for older versions in the default images. Downloading of prebuilt drivers and the modern eBPF will work exactly like before. The older image, meant for compatibility with older kernels (4.x and below), is currently retained as `falcosecurity/falco-driver-loader-legacy`.
+- The Falco HTTP output no longer logs to stdout by default for performance reasons. You can set stdout logging preferences and restore the previous behavior with the configuration option `http_output.echo` in `falco.yaml`.
+- The `--list-syscall-events` command line option has been replaced by `--list-events` which prints all supported system events (syscall, tracepoints, metaevents, internal plugin events) in addition to extra information about flags.
+- The semantics of `proc.exepath` have changed. Now that field contains the executable path on disk even if the binary was launched from a symbolic link.
+- The `-d` daemonize option has been removed.
+- The `-p` option is now changed:
+    - when only `-pc` is set Falco will print `container_id=%container.id container_image=%container.image.repository container_image_tag=%container.image.tag container_name=%container.name`
+    - when `-pk` is set it will print as above, but with `k8s_ns=%k8s.ns.name k8s_pod_name=%k8s.pod.name` appended

 [Falco](https://falco.org/) is a cloud native runtime security tool for Linux operating systems. It is designed to detect and alert on abnormal behavior and potential security threats in real-time.

-At its core, Falco is a kernel event monitoring and detection agent that captures events, such as syscalls, based on custom rules. Falco can enhance these events by integrating metadata from the container runtime and Kubernetes. The collected events can be analyzed off-host in SIEM or data lake systems.

 ## License

 Falco is licensed to you under the [Apache 2.0](./COPYING) open source license.

+## Why is Falco in C++ rather than Go or {language}?
+
+1. The first lines of code at the base of Falco were written some time ago, where Go didn't yet have the same level of maturity and adoption as today.
+2. The Falco execution model is sequential and mono-thread due to the statefulness requirements of the tool, and so most of the concurrency-related selling points of the Go runtime would not be leveraged at all.
+3. The Falco code deals with very low-level programming in many places (e.g. some headers are shared with the eBPF probe and the Kernel module), and we all know that interfacing Go with C is possible but brings tons of complexity and tradeoffs to the table.
+4. As a security tool meant to consume a crazy high throughput of events per second, Falco needs to squeeze performance in all hot paths at runtime and requires deep control on memory allocation, which the Go runtime can't provide (there's also garbage collection involved).
+5. Although Go didn't suit the engineering requirements of the core of Falco, we still thought that it could be a good candidate for writing Falco extensions through the plugin system. This is the main reason we gave special attention and high priority to the development of the plugin-sdk-go.
+6. Go is not a requirement for having statically-linked binaries. In fact, we provide fully-static Falco builds since few years. The only issue with those is that the plugin system can't be supported with the current dynamic library model we currently have.
+7. The plugin system has been envisioned to support multiple languages, so on our end maintaining a C-compatible codebase is the best strategy to ensure maximum cross-language compatibility.
+8. In general, plugins have GLIBC requirements/dependencies because they have low-level C bindings required for dynamic loading. A potential solution for the future could be to also support plugin to be statically-linked at compilation time and so released as bundled in the Falco binary. Although no work started yet in this direction, this would solve most issues you reported and would provide a totally-static binary too. Of course, this would not be compatible with dynamic loading anymore, but it may be a viable solution for our static-build flavor of Falco.
+9. Memory safety is definitely a concern and we try our best to keep an high level of quality even though C++ is quite error prone. For instance, we try to use smart pointers whenever possible, we build the libraries with an address sanitizer in our CI, we run Falco through Valgrind before each release, and have ways to stress-test it to detect performance regressions or weird memory usage (e.g. https://github.com/falcosecurity/event-generator). On top of that, we also have third parties auditing the codebase by time to time. None of this make a perfect safety standpoint of course, but we try to maximize our odds. Go would definitely make our life easier from this perspective, however the tradeoffs never made it worth it so far due to the points above.
+10. The C++ codebase of falcosecurity/libs, which is at the core of Falco, is quite large and complex. Porting all that code to another language would be a major effort requiring lots of development resource and with an high chance of failure and regression. As such, our approach so far has been to choose refactors and code polishing instead, up until we'll reach an optimal level of stability, quality, and modularity, on that portion of code. This would allow further developments to be smoother and more feasibile in the future.

 ### Falco repo (this repo)
 - Falco version is a git tag (`x.y.z`), see [Procedures](#procedures) section. Note that the Falco version is a sem-ver-like schema, but not fully compatible with sem-ver.
- [FALCO_ENGINE_VERSION](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/blob/master/userspace/engine/falco_engine_version.h) is not sem-ver and must be bumped either when a backward incompatible change has been introduced to the rules files syntax and/or `FALCO_FIELDS_CHECKSUM` computed via `falco --list -N | sha256sum` has changed. The primary idea is that when new filter / display fields (see currently supported [Falco fields](https://falco.org/docs/rules/supported-fields/)) are introduced, a version change indicates that these fields were not available in previous engine versions. See the [rules release guidelines](https://github.com/falcosecurity/rules/blob/main/RELEASE.md#versioning-a-ruleset) to understand how this affects the versioning of Falco rules. Breaking changes introduced in the Falco engine are not necessarily tied to the drivers or libs versions. Lastly, `FALCO_ENGINE_VERSION` is typically incremented once during a Falco release cycle, while `FALCO_FIELDS_CHECKSUM` is bumped whenever necessary during the development and testing phases of the release cycle.
+- [FALCO_ENGINE_VERSION](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/blob/master/userspace/engine/falco_engine_version.h) is not sem-ver and must be bumped either when a backward incompatible change has been introduced to the rules files syntax and loading logic, and/or when `FALCO_ENGINE_CHECKSUM` has changed. The checksum is computed by considering the available rules fields (see currently supported [Falco fields](https://falco.org/docs/reference/rules/supported-fields/)), the event types (see currently supported [Falco events](https://falco.org/docs/reference/rules/supported-events/)), and the supported driver schema version. A checksum indicates that something was not available in previous engine versions. See the [rules release guidelines](https://github.com/falcosecurity/rules/blob/main/RELEASE.md#versioning-a-ruleset) to understand how this affects the versioning of Falco rules. Breaking changes introduced in the Falco engine are not necessarily tied to the drivers or libs versions. The version number must be incremented every time and only when a single change or an atomic group of changes - which meet the criteria described above - is included in the `master` branch. Thus, a version bump can occur multiple times during the development and testing phases of a given release cycle. A given version bump must not group multiple changes that occurred sporadically during the release cycle.
 - During development and release preparation, libs and driver reference commits are often bumped in Falco's cmake setup ([falcosecurity-libs cmake](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/blob/master/cmake/modules/falcosecurity-libs.cmake#L30) and [driver cmake](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/blob/master/cmake/modules/driver.cmake#L29)) in order to merge new Falco features. In practice, they are mostly bumped at the same time referencing the same `libs` commit. However, for the official Falco build `FALCOSECURITY_LIBS_VERSION` flag that references the stable libs version is used (read below).
 - Similarly, Falco plugins versions are bumped in Falco's cmake setup ([plugins cmake](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco/blob/master/cmake/modules/plugins.cmake)) and those versions are the ones used for the Falco release.
 - At release time Plugin, Libs and Driver versions are compatible with Falco.

 > Cloud Native Runtime Security

-### What is Falco?
-
-Falco is a runtime security project originally created by Sysdig, Inc.
-Falco was contributed to the CNCF in October 2018.
-The CNCF now owns The Falco Project.
-
-### What is Runtime Security?
-
-Runtime security refers to an approach to preventing unwanted activity on a computer system. 
-With runtime security, an operator deploys **both** prevention tooling (access control, policy enforcement, etc) along side detection tooling (systems observability, anomaly detection, etc).
-Runtime security is the practice of using detection tooling to detect unwanted behavior, such that it can then be prevented using prevention techniques.
-Runtime security is a holistic approach to defense, and useful in scenarios where prevention tooling either was unaware of an exploit or attack vector, or when defective applications are ran in even the most secure environment.
-
-### What does Falco do?
-
-Falco consumes signals from the Linux kernel, and container management tools such as Docker and Kubernetes.
-Falco parses the signals and asserts them against security rules.
-If a rule has been violated, Falco triggers an alert. 
-
-### How does Falco work?
-
-Falco traces kernel events and reports information about the system calls being executed at runtime.
-Falco leverages the extended berkeley packet filter (eBPF) which is a kernel feature implemented for dynamic crash-resilient and secure code execution in the kernel. 
-Falco enriches these kernel events with information about containers running on the system.
-Falco also can consume signals from other input streams such as the containerd socket, the Kubernetes API server and the Kubernetes audit log.
-At runtime, Falco will reason about these events and assert them against configured security rules.
-Based on the severity of a violation an alert is triggered.
-These alerts are configurable and extensible, for instance sending a notification or [plumbing through to other projects like Prometheus](https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco-exporter). 
-
-### Benefits of using Falco
-
- - **Strengthen Security** Create security rules driven by a context-rich and flexible engine to define unexpected application behavior.
- - **Reduce Risk** Immediately respond to policy violation alerts by plugging Falco into your current security response workflows and processes.
- - **Leverage up-to-date Rules** Alert using community-sourced detections of malicious activity and CVE exploits.
-    
-### Falco and securing Kubernetes
-
-Securing Kubernetes requires putting controls in place to detect unexpected behavior that could be malicious or harmful to a cluster or application(s). 
-
-Examples of malicious behavior include: 
-
- - Exploits of unpatched and new vulnerabilities in applications or Kubernetes itself. 
- - Insecure configurations in applications or Kubernetes itself. 
- - Leaked or weak credentials or secret material.
- - Insider threats from adjacent applications running at the same layer. 
-
-Falco is capable of [consuming the Kubernetes audit logs](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/debug-application-cluster/falco/#use-falco-to-collect-audit-events).
-By adding Kubernetes application context, and Kubernetes audit logs teams can understand who did what.

 ### Writing about Falco

 ##### Yes
@@ -100,49 +47,31 @@ Notice the capitalization of the following terms.
 - the falco project
 - the Falco project

-### Encouraged Phrasing
-
-Below are phrases that the project has reviewed, and found to be effective ways of messaging Falco's value add.
-Even when processes are in place for vulnerability scanning and implementing pod security and network policies, not every risk will be addressed. You still need mechanisms to confirm these security barriers are effective, help configure them, and provide with a last line of defense when they fail.
-
-##### Falco as a factory
-
-This term refers to the concept that Falco is a stateless processing engine. A large amount of data comes into the engine, but meticulously crafted security alerts come out.
-
-##### The engine that powers...
-
-Falco ultimately is a security engine. It reasons about signals coming from a system at runtime, and can alert if an anomaly is detected.
-
-##### Anomaly detection
-
-This refers to an event that occurs with something unusual, concerning, or odd occurs.
-We can associate anomalies with unwanted behavior, and alert in their presence.
-
-##### Detection tooling
-
-Falco does not prevent unwanted behavior.
-Falco however alerts when unusual behavior occurs.
-This is commonly referred to as **detection** or **forensics**.

+#### eBPF Probe

 Used to describe the `.o` object that would be dynamically loaded into the kernel as a secure and stable (e)BPF probe. 
 This is one option used to pass kernel events up to userspace for Falco to consume.
-Sometimes this word is incorrectly used to refer to a `module`.

-#### Module
+#### Modern eBPF Probe
+
+More robust [eBPF probe](#ebpf-probe), which brings the CO-RE paradigm, better performances, and maintainability. 
+Unlike the legacy probe, the modern eBPF probe is not shipped as a separate artifact but bundled into the Falco binary itself.
+This is one option used to pass kernel events up to userspace for Falco to consume.
+
+#### Kernel Module

 Used to describe the `.ko` object that would be loaded into the kernel as a potentially risky kernel module.
 This is one option used to pass kernel events up to userspace for Falco to consume.
-Sometimes this word is incorrectly used to refer to a `probe`.

 #### Driver 

-The global term for the software that sends events from the kernel. Such as the eBPF `probe` or the `kernel module`.

-* We use `Dockerfile` to build the `centos7` Falco builder image.
 * We use `modern-falco-builder.Dockerfile` to build Falco with the modern probe and return it as a Dockerfile output. This Dockerfile doesn't generate a Docker image but returns as output (through the `--output` command):
  * Falco `tar.gz`.
  * Falco `deb` package.
  * Falco `rpm` package.
-  * Falco build directory, used by other CI jobs.

-Hello, this is the Falco builder container.
-
-How to use.
-
-    The default commands for the Falco builder image reports usage and environment info.
-    * docker run falcosecurity/falco-builder
-    * docker run falcosecurity/falco-builder usage
-
-    It supports bash.
-    * docker run -ti falcosecurity/falco-builder bash
-
-    To build Falco it needs:
-    - a bind-mount on the source directory (ie., the directory containing the Falco source as sibling)
-
-    Optionally, you can also bind-mount the build directory.
-    So, you can execute it from the Falco root directory as follows.
-
-    * docker run -v $PWD/..:/source -v $PWD/build:/build falcosecurity/falco-builder cmake
-    * docker run -v $PWD/..:/source -v $PWD/build:/build falcosecurity/falco-builder [<cmake-target-x>, ..., <cmake-target-y>]
-
-    Eg.,
-    * docker run -v $PWD/..:/source -v $PWD/build:/build falcosecurity/falco-builder tests
-    * docker run -v $PWD/..:/source -v $PWD/build:/build falcosecurity/falco-builder install
-
-How to build.
-
-    * cd docker/builder && DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build -t falcosecurity/falco-builder .
-
-    In case you want to customise the builder at build time the following build arguments are provided:
-    - BUILD_TYPE                whether you want a "release" or "debug" build (defaults to "release").
-    - BUILD_DRIVER              whether to build the driver or not (defaults to "OFF")
-    - BUILD_BPF                 whether to build the BPF driver or not (defaults to "OFF")
-    - BUILD_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS  whether to intend warnings as errors or not (defaults to "ON")
-    - MAKE_JOBS                 the number of jobs to use during make (defaults to "4")
-    - FALCO_VERSION             the version to label the build (built from git index in case it is missing)
-
-    It is possible to change these at runtime (in the container) since environment variables with the same names are provided, too.
-
-Environment.
-
-    * ${gccversion}
-    * cplusplus ${cppversion}
-    * ${cmakeversion}
-    * ${clangversion}

-How to use.
-
-    The default commands for the Falco tester image reports usage and environment info.
-    * docker run falcosecurity/falco-tester
-    * docker run falcosecurity/falco-tester usage
-
-    It supports bash.
-    * docker run -ti falcosecurity/falco-tester bash
-
-    To run Falco regression tests you need to provide:
-    - the docker socket
-    - the boot directory
-    - the source directory
-    - the directory where Falco has been built
-    - the environment variable FALCO_VARIABLE set to the value obtained during the Falco's build
-
-    Assuming you are running it from the Falco root directory, you can run it as follows.
-    * docker run -v /boot:/boot:ro -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v $PWD/..:/source -v $PWD/build:/build -e FALCO_VERSION=<current_falco_version> falcosecurity/falco-tester test

+#
+# Only one engine can be specified in the `kind` key.
+# Moreover, for each engine multiple options might be available,
+# grouped under engine-specific configuration keys.
+# Some of them deserve an in-depth description:
+#
+################### `buf_size_preset`
+#
+# --- [Description]
+#
+# The syscall buffer index determines the size of the shared space between Falco
+# and its drivers. This shared space serves as a temporary storage for syscall
+# events, allowing them to be transferred from the kernel to the userspace
+# efficiently. The buffer size for each online CPU is determined by the buffer
+# index, and each CPU has its own dedicated buffer. Adjusting this index allows
+# you to control the overall size of the syscall buffers.
+#
+# --- [Usage]
+#
+# The index 0 is reserved, and each subsequent index corresponds to an
+# increasing size in bytes. For example, index 1 corresponds to a size of 1 MB,
+# index 2 corresponds to 2 MB, and so on:
+#
+# [(*), 1 MB, 2 MB, 4 MB, 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB]
+#   ^    ^     ^     ^     ^     ^      ^      ^       ^       ^       ^
+#   |    |     |     |     |     |      |      |       |       |       |
+#   0    1     2     3     4     5      6      7       8       9       10
+#
+#
+# The buffer dimensions in bytes are determined by the following requirements:
+# (1) a power of 2.
+# (2) a multiple of your system_page_dimension.
+# (3) greater than `2 * (system_page_dimension).
+#
+# The buffer size constraints may limit the usability of certain indexes. Let's
+# consider an example to illustrate this:
+#
+# If your system has a page size of 1 MB, the first available buffer size would
+# be 4 MB because 2 MB is exactly equal to 2 * (system_page_size), which is not
+# sufficient as we require more than 2 * (system_page_size). In this example, it
+# is evident that if the page size is 1 MB, the first index that can be used is 3.
+#
+# However, in most cases, these constraints do not pose a limitation, and all
+# indexes from 1 to 10 can be used. You can check your system's page size using
+# the Falco `--page-size` command-line option.
+# 
+# --- [Suggestions]
+#
+# The buffer size was previously fixed at 8 MB (index 4). You now have the
+# option to adjust the size based on your needs. Increasing the size, such as to
+# 16 MB (index 5), can reduce syscall drops in heavy production systems, but may
+# impact performance. Decreasing the size can speed up the system but may
+# increase syscall drops. It's important to note that the buffer size is mapped
+# twice in the process' virtual memory, so a buffer of 8 MB will result in a 16
+# MB area in virtual memory. Use this parameter with caution and only modify it
+# if the default size is not suitable for your use case.
+#
+################### `drop_failed_exit`
+#
+# --- [Description]
+#
+# Enabling this option in Falco allows it to drop failed system call exit events
+# in the kernel drivers before pushing them onto the ring buffer. This
+# optimization can result in lower CPU usage and more efficient utilization of
+# the ring buffer, potentially reducing the number of event losses. However, it
+# is important to note that enabling this option also means sacrificing some
+# visibility into the system.
+#
+################### `cpus_for_each_buffer` (modern_ebpf only)
+#
+# --- [Description]
+#
+# The modern_bpf driver in Falco utilizes the new BPF ring buffer, which has a
+# different memory footprint compared to the current BPF driver that uses the
+# perf buffer. The Falco core maintainers have discussed the differences and
+# their implications, particularly in Kubernetes environments where limits need
+# to be carefully set to avoid interference with the Falco daemonset deployment
+# from the OOM killer. Based on guidance received from the kernel mailing list,
+# it is recommended to assign multiple CPUs to one buffer instead of allocating
+# a buffer for each CPU individually. This helps optimize resource allocation
+# and prevent potential issues related to memory usage.
+#
+# This is an index that controls how many CPUs you want to assign to a single
+# syscall buffer (ring buffer). By default, for modern_bpf every syscall buffer
+# is associated to 2 CPUs, so the mapping is 1:2. The modern BPF probe allows
+# you to choose different mappings, for example, changing the value to `1`
+# results in a 1:1 mapping and would mean one syscall buffer for each CPU (this
+# is the default for the `bpf` driver).
+#
+# --- [Usage]
+#
+# You can choose an index from 0 to MAX_NUMBER_ONLINE_CPUs to set the dimension
+# of the syscall buffers. The value 0 represents a single buffer shared among
+# all online CPUs. It serves as a flexible option when the exact number of
+# online CPUs is unknown. Here's an example to illustrate this:
+#
+# Consider a system with 7 online CPUs:
+#
+#          CPUs     0  X  2  3  X  X  6  7  8  9   (X means offline CPU)
+#
+# - `1` means a syscall buffer for each CPU so 7 buffers
+#
+#          CPUs     0  X  2  3  X  X  6  7  8  9   (X means offline CPU)
+#                   |     |  |        |  |  |  |
+#       BUFFERs     0     1  2        3  4  5  6
+#
+# - `2` (Default value) means a syscall buffer for each CPU pair, so 4 buffers
+#
+#          CPUs     0  X  2  3  X  X  6  7  8  9   (X means offline CPU)
+#                   |     |  |        |  |  |  |
+#       BUFFERs     0     0  1        1  2  2  3
+#
+# Please note that in this example, there are 4 buffers in total. Three of the
+# buffers are associated with pairs of CPUs, while the last buffer is mapped to
+# a single CPU. This arrangement is necessary because we have an odd number of
+# CPUs.
+#
+# - `0` or `MAX_NUMBER_ONLINE_CPUs` mean a syscall buffer shared between all
+#   CPUs, so 1 buffer
+#
+#          CPUs     0  X  2  3  X  X  6  7  8  9   (X means offline CPU)
+#                   |     |  |        |  |  |  |
+#       BUFFERs     0     0  0        0  0  0  0
+#
+# Moreover, you have the option to combine this parameter with
+# `buf_size_preset` index. For instance, you can create a large shared
+# syscall buffer of 512 MB (using buf_size_preset=10) that is
+# allocated among all the online CPUs.
+#
+# --- [Suggestions]
+#
+# The default choice of index 2 (one syscall buffer for each CPU pair) was made
+# because the modern bpf probe utilizes a different memory allocation strategy
+# compared to the other two drivers (bpf and kernel module). However, you have
+# the flexibility to experiment and find the optimal configuration for your
+# system.
+# 
+# When considering a fixed buf_size_preset and a fixed buffer dimension:
+# - Increasing this configs value results in lower number of buffers and you can
+#   speed up your system and reduce memory usage
+# - However, using too few buffers may increase contention in the kernel,
+#   leading to a slowdown.
+# 
+# If you have low event throughputs and minimal drops, reducing the number of
+# buffers (higher `cpus_for_each_buffer`) can lower the memory footprint.

-# [Stable] `metadata_download`

-# When connected to an orchestrator like Kubernetes, Falco has the capability to
-# collect metadata and enrich system call events with contextual data. The
-# parameters mentioned here control the downloading process of this metadata.
-#
-# Please note that support for Mesos is deprecated, so these parameters
-# currently apply only to Kubernetes. When using Falco with Kubernetes, you can
-# enable this functionality by using the `-k` or `-K` command-line flag.
-#
-# However, it's worth mentioning that for important Kubernetes metadata fields
-# such as namespace or pod name, these fields are automatically extracted from
-# the container runtime, providing the necessary enrichment for common use cases
-# of syscall-based threat detection.
-#
-# In summary, the `-k` flag is typically not required for most scenarios involving
-# Kubernetes workload owner enrichment. The `-k` flag is primarily used when
-# additional metadata is required beyond the standard fields, catering to more
-# specific use cases, see https://falco.org/docs/reference/rules/supported-fields/#field-class-k8s.
