eBPF agent attributes reference

This reference covers the attributes that are unique to the New Relic eBPF agent for eBPF APM and eBPF network metrics. eBPF data flows into standard NRDB data types (Metric, Span, and Log), and these attributes are available for querying, faceting, and alerting in NRQL.

The eBPF agent also emits standard OpenTelemetry semantic convention attributes (for example, http.request.method, db.system, jvm.memory.usage) and standard OpenTelemetry span fields (trace_id, span_id, kind, and so on). Refer to the OpenTelemetry semantic conventions and the trace API specification for their definitions.

All eBPF telemetry carries the following scope attributes:
