Samenvatting:

Embark on a structured learning journey, starting with classic BPF (cBPF) and its evolution to modern eBPF, grasping its architecture and core programming primitives like the BPF syscall and various program/attachment types. Discover practical development using key eBPF programming libraries such as libbpf and bpftrace, and learn to write your first program. Explore BPF portability with CO-RE and efficient eBPF deployment. Uncover potent applications in eBPF observability (kprobes, tracepoints), eBPF networking (XDP, socket filters), and eBPF security. Finally, delve into key eBPF open-source projects like Cilium and Falco.
