# Python-BPF
This is an LLVM IR generator for eBPF program. We use `llvmlite` to generate LLVM IR code from pure Python code. This is then compiled to LLVM object files, which can be loaded into the kernel for execution.
This is an LLVM IR generator for eBPF programs in Python. We use `llvmlite` to generate LLVM IR code from pure Python code. This is then compiled to LLVM object files, which can be loaded into the kernel for execution.
## Development
Step 0. Make a virtual environment and activate it using `python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate`.
Step 1. Run `make install` to install the required dependencies.
Step 2. Run `make` to see the compilation output of the example.
Step 3. Run `check.sh` to check if generated object file passes through the verifier inside the examples directory.
Step 4. Run `make` in the `examples/c-form` directory to modify the example C BPF program to check the actual LLVM IR generated by clang.
