Add EBPF_HELPER_CONTRACT.md documenting helper binary invocation with --json/--limit/--duration/--interfaces parameters and expected JSON output format with flows/diagnostics, implement collect_ebpf_flows to invoke helper binary with configurable timeout/window/interfaces and normalize flow fields (source_ip/destination_ip/protocol/ports/packets/bytes/state), add executable_exists and flow_int helpers for binary validation

# NexaFabric eBPF helper contract
|
|
|
|
Agent 0.3.0 can call an optional helper binary at `/opt/nexafabric-agent/nexafabric-ebpf`.
|
|
|
|
The helper is invoked as:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
nexafabric-ebpf --json --limit 1500 --duration 10 --interfaces tap100i0,fwln100i0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It must print JSON to stdout:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"flows": [
|
|
{
|
|
"source_ip": "172.16.0.10",
|
|
"destination_ip": "172.16.0.20",
|
|
"protocol": "tcp",
|
|
"source_port": 443,
|
|
"destination_port": 53020,
|
|
"packets": 10,
|
|
"bytes": 14800,
|
|
"vmid": "100",
|
|
"interface": "tap100i0",
|
|
"direction": "ingress",
|
|
"state": "observed"
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"diagnostics": {
|
|
"attach_mode": "tc",
|
|
"interfaces_attached": ["tap100i0"]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Python agent merges these flows with firewall-log, packet, and conntrack fallback collectors.
