Introduction At some point, we had to dive into developing programs in eBPF, and that time has finally come. In this post, we'll explore several different approaches to writing eBPF programs, including powerful tools like Cilium and BCC. I'll highlight the methods that I find most efficient and convenient, because as developers, our goal is to write code quickly and effectively, without unnecessary complications. So let's get straight to the point and see how we can streamline our eBPF development workflow. I think I should clarify, my go-to method of coding eBPF programs is with Cilium and their bpf2go library. A spectacular and simple way of coding programs in kernelspace, with C like syntax, and a very comfortable way of adapting the userspace with Golang. It turns out that all you need to do that is the big brain of the people in Cilium. I won't spoil anything just yet, but keep in mind that all my tinkering with eBPF has been done with bpf2go . I st
Introduction As the title suggests, in this post we'll be discussing many things about Assembly language. This is a series I have been wanting to make for a while now. My experience with Assembly Languages started way back in 2018 when I was in College. There we had a particular subject called Computer and Network Fundamentals where we had to tinker with MIPS Assembly (talk about fundamentals). It was love at first sight. Now it's been a few years since then, so my skills at programming with assembly language got a bit better (not by much though). In case there's anyone else in this world that would like to start writing a few programs with this wonderful technology, this post and most likely the few following are gonna be of great help, I hope. What exactly is Assembly Language? All this talk about Assembly is great, but what exactly is it? I’m guessing most of you already have a basic understanding of what Assembly language is and how it funct
