eBPF Foundation

The eBPF Foundation is a Linux Foundation project that advances eBPF technology by guiding upstream development, promoting its benefits, and enhancing its security and reliability. eBPF enables programmable kernel functionality for networking, observability, tracing, and security without changing kernel source code. The Foundation itself does not operate a public API; it stewards the technology and community.

eBPF Foundation is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include eBPF, Kernel, Linux Foundation, Networking, and Observability.

eBPF Foundation’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 14 more developer resources.
