	eBPF (Enhanced [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Packet_Filter Berkeley Packet Filter]) is a powerful toolchain capable of compiling high-level languages into a BPF bytecode, which is JITted into local machine code, and can be inserted into a running kernel. It builds atop kprobes, and is in the same family of tools as SystemTap and DTrace.		eBPF (Enhanced [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_Packet_Filter Berkeley Packet Filter]) is a powerful toolchain capable of compiling high-level languages into a BPF bytecode, which is JITted into local machine code, and can be inserted into a running kernel.
