BPF Instruction Set Architecture (ISA)
======================================
This document specifies the BPF instruction set architecture (ISA).
eBPF (which is no longer an acronym for anything), also commonly
referred to as BPF, is a technology with origins in the Linux kernel
that can run untrusted programs in a privileged context such as an
operating system kernel. This document specifies the BPF instruction
set architecture (ISA).
