The eBPF programlets cannot be built with -fno-stack-protector, as they won't be linked to the supporting code, as it doesn't make sense in their context. Add -fno-stack-protector to the build_ebpf line so that they won't be built with this feature when the feature is enabled for the userland parts of the project.
The compiler complains that the value inside the labs(...) calls in both places in this commit is an unsigned value, and always unsigned. Move the value being subtracted to the right-hand-side as an addition, and remove the labs(...) calls that would always return true.

Modify the eBPF programlet compilation to add
-fno-stack-protectorsimilar to Sysinternals/SysmonForLinux#42Additionally, the compiler warnings identified two calls to
labs(...)that would always evaluate totruedue to them operating on anunsignedvalue. I modified the less-than comparison to move the subtracted value from the left-hand side to be an added value to the right-hand side, and removed thelabs(...)calls.
