For now this is now clear which license we can use with bpf and maybe bcc already choose a license for us ...

From Toward Flexible and Efficient In-Kernel Network Function Chaining with IOVisor :

Kernel code in Linux has to be GPL :
• Injected eBPFcode may be non-GPL
    • Injected code require the explicit indication of the license
    • Some kernel helpers accept only GPL code, refusing to serve non-GPL programs
• Given the above limitation, eBPF enables non-GPL code to be executed at kernel level
