June 2026: Focused on strengthening Windows XDP observability by delivering dynamic PktMon registration. Implemented a mechanism that ensures packet monitoring remains functional even if PktMon loads after XDP interfaces initialize by introducing a global tracking list and lifecycle callbacks to manage PktMon service state changes. Included comprehensive functional tests to verify registration and drop capture across service states, reducing monitoring gaps and improving deployment resilience for Windows-based XDP workloads.
