## README

eBPF
-------
[![PkgGoDev](https://pkg.go.dev/badge/github.com/cilium/ebpf)](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cilium/ebpf)

eBPF is a pure Go library that provides utilities for loading, compiling, and debugging eBPF programs. It has minimal external dependencies and is intended to be used in long running processes.

* [asm](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cilium/ebpf/asm) contains a basic assembler.
* [link](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cilium/ebpf/link) allows attaching eBPF to various hooks.
* [perf](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cilium/ebpf/perf) allows reading from a PERF_EVENT_ARRAY.
* [cmd/bpf2go](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/cilium/ebpf/cmd/bpf2go) allows embedding eBPF in Go.

The library is maintained by [Cloudflare](https://www.cloudflare.com) and [Cilium](https://www.cilium.io). Feel free to [join](https://cilium.herokuapp.com/) the [libbpf-go](https://cilium.slack.com/messages/libbpf-go) channel on Slack.

## Current status

The package is production ready, but **the API is explicitly unstable
right now**. Expect to update your code if you want to follow along.

## Requirements

* A version of Go that is [supported by upstream](https://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#policy)
* Linux 4.9, 4.19 or 5.4 (versions in-between should work, but are not tested)

## Useful resources

* [eBPF.io](https://ebpf.io) (recommended)
