There is in development a 5G version of GTP at [1]. I have added the enhanced hooks to this (plus retrieve contexts via call-backs etc.), and have it running on 5.9, passing their tests. I'm not sure how far this development will go, but a starter ??. The other component that seems to be widely used in these systems is SCTP that I added hooks to a few years ago, also TCP/UDP etc. that are already well catered for. Also there would be a large amount of userspace code .... Anyway food for thought. [1] https://github.com/PrinzOwO/gtp5g
