Hello @JohnSully, this is quite an impressive project!
I wonder what the Redis modules API should provide in order to let such a project to exist without the need of hot patching. And if, by providing such APIs, the rest would continue to work without issues across releases, no longe relying on low level details about the Redis implementation. I'll review the SSL PR with the idea to merge before Redis 6, however this experiment of yours kinda changes the landscape. During the Redis Conf there was a meeting where I actually suggested to go with the module approach, but we were not sure about how much viable and convenient it was, so many were against the idea. However this project of yours brings new insights into this approach. Thanks.
