Description
Discover the power of eBPF, a revolutionary technology that enables custom code to dynamically change the way the Linux kernel behaves. This practical book provides a foundation for developers, system administrators, and students to explore eBPF programming and its applications.
With eBPF, you can build new tools for security, observability, and networking, and learn how to write custom code that interacts with Linux to dynamically change the operating system's behavior. This book covers the basics of eBPF programming, including writing eBPF code, manipulating eBPF programs, and attaching them to events.
Learn how eBPF can be used to instrument applications without changes to the apps or their configuration, and discover the potential of this technology for building new tools and solutions. Whether you're looking to enhance observability, security, or networking, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to eBPF programming and its applications.
