1. Introduction
eBPF, also commonly referred to as BPF, is a technology with origins
in the Linux kernel that can run untrusted programs in a privileged
context such as an operating system kernel. This document specifies
the BPF instruction set architecture (ISA).
As a historical note, BPF originally stood for Berkeley Packet
Filter, but now that it can do so much more than packet filtering,
the acronym no longer makes sense. BPF is now considered a
standalone term that does not stand for anything. The original BPF
is sometimes referred to as cBPF (classic BPF) to distinguish it from
the now widely deployed eBPF (extended BPF).
2. Documentation conventions Conventions
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
For brevity and consistency, this document refers to families of
types using a shorthand syntax and refers to several expository,
mnemonic functions when describing the semantics of instructions.
The range of valid values for those types and the semantics of those
functions are defined in the following subsections.
2.1. Types
This document refers to integer types with the notation _SN_ SN to specify
a type's signedness (_S_) (S) and bit width (_N_), (N), respectively.
+===+==========+
| S | Meaning |
+===+==========+
| u | unsigned |

Table 2: Meaning of
bit-width notation
Bit-Width Notation
For example, _u32_ is a type whose valid values are all the 32-bit
unsigned numbers and _s16_ is a type whose valid values are all the
16-bit signed numbers.
2.2. Functions
The following byteswap byte swap functions are direction-agnostic. direction agnostic. That is,
the same function is used for conversion in either direction
discussed below.
* be16: Takes an unsigned 16-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and big-endian (IEN137 [IEN137]) byte order. order [IEN137].
* be32: Takes an unsigned 32-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and big-endian byte order.
* be64: Takes an unsigned 64-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and big-endian byte order.
* bswap16: Takes an unsigned 16-bit number in either big- or little-
endian format and returns the equivalent number with the same bit
width but opposite endianness.
* bswap32: Takes an unsigned 32-bit number in either big- or little-
endian format and returns the equivalent number with the same bit
width but opposite endianness.
* bswap64: Takes an unsigned 64-bit number in either big- or little-
endian format and returns the equivalent number with the same bit
width but opposite endianness.
* le16: Takes an unsigned 16-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and little-endian byte order.
* le32: Takes an unsigned 32-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and little-endian byte order.
* le64: Takes an unsigned 64-bit number and converts it between host
byte order and little-endian byte order.
2.3. Definitions
Sign Extend Extend: To _sign sign extend an_ X _-bit an X-bit number, A, to a_ Y _-bit a Y-bit number, B ,_
B, means to
1. Copy all X bits from _A_ A to the lower X bits of _B_. B.
2. Set the value of the remaining Y - X bits of _B_ B to the value of
the most-significant most significant bit of _A_. A.
| *Example*
|
| Sign extend an 8-bit number A to a 16-bit number B on a big-
| endian platform:
|
| A: 10000110
| B: 11111111 10000110
2.4. Conformance groups Groups
An implementation does not need to support all instructions specified
in this document (e.g., deprecated instructions). Instead, a number
of conformance groups are specified. An implementation MUST support
the base32 conformance group and MAY support additional conformance
groups, where supporting a conformance group means it MUST support
all instructions in that conformance group.
The use of named conformance groups enables interoperability between
a runtime that executes instructions, and tools such as compilers
that generate instructions for the runtime. Thus, capability
discovery in terms of conformance groups might be done manually by
users or automatically by tools.
Each conformance group has a short ASCII label (e.g., "base32") that
corresponds to a set of instructions that are mandatory. That is,
each instruction has one or more conformance groups of which it is a
member.
This document defines the following conformance groups:
*
base32: includes all instructions defined in this specification
unless otherwise noted.
*
base64: includes base32, plus instructions explicitly noted as being
in the base64 conformance group.
*
atomic32: includes 32-bit atomic operation instructions (see
Atomic operations (Section 5.3)).
*
Section 5.3).
atomic64: includes atomic32, plus 64-bit atomic operation
instructions.
*
divmul32: includes 32-bit division, multiplication, and modulo
instructions.
*
divmul64: includes divmul32, plus 64-bit division, multiplication,
and modulo instructions.
*
packet: deprecated packet access instructions.
3. Instruction encoding Encoding
BPF has two instruction encodings:
* the basic instruction encoding, which uses 64 bits to encode an
instruction
* the wide instruction encoding, which appends a second 64 bits
after the basic instruction for a total of 128 bits.
3.1. Basic instruction encoding Instruction Encoding
A basic instruction is encoded as follows:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| opcode | regs | offset |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| imm |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*opcode*
*opcode:* operation to perform, encoded as follows:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|specific |class|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*specific*
*specific:* The format of these bits varies by instruction class
*class* The
*class:* the instruction class (see Instruction classes
(Section 3.3))
*regs* The Section 3.3)
*regs:* the source and destination register numbers, encoded as
follows on a little-endian host:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|src_reg|dst_reg|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
and as follows on a big-endian host:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|dst_reg|src_reg|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*src_reg*
*src_reg:* the source register number (0-10), except where
otherwise specified (64-bit immediate instructions
(Section (see
Section 5.4) reuse this field for other purposes)
*dst_reg*
*dst_reg:* the destination register number (0-10), unless
otherwise specified (future instructions might reuse this field
for other purposes)
*offset*
*offset:* signed integer offset used with pointer arithmetic, except
where otherwise specified (some arithmetic instructions reuse this
field for other purposes)
*imm*
*imm:* signed integer immediate value
Note that the contents of multi-byte fields ('offset' and 'imm') are
stored using big-endian byte ordering on big-endian hosts and little-
endian byte ordering on little-endian hosts.
For example:
opcode offset imm assembly
src_reg dst_reg
07 0 1 00 00 44 33 22 11 r1 += 0x11223344 // little
dst_reg src_reg
07 1 0 00 00 11 22 33 44 r1 += 0x11223344 // big
Note that most instructions do not use all of the fields. Unused
fields SHALL be cleared to zero.
3.2. Wide instruction encoding Instruction Encoding
Some instructions are defined to use the wide instruction encoding,
which uses two 32-bit immediate values. The 64 bits following the
basic instruction format contain a pseudo instruction with 'opcode',
'dst_reg', 'src_reg', and 'offset' all set to zero.
This is depicted in the following figure:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| opcode | regs | offset |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| imm |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| next_imm |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*opcode*
*opcode:* operation to perform, encoded as explained above
*regs* The
*regs:* the source and destination register numbers (unless
otherwise specified), encoded as explained above
*offset*
*offset:* signed integer offset used with pointer arithmetic, unless
otherwise specified
*imm*
*imm:* signed integer immediate value
*reserved*
*reserved:* unused, set to zero
*next_imm*
*next_imm:* second signed integer immediate value
3.3. Instruction classes Classes
The three least significant bits of the 'opcode' field store the
instruction class:

4. Arithmetic and jump instructions Jump Instructions
For arithmetic and jump instructions (ALU, ALU64, JMP JMP, and JMP32),
the 8-bit 'opcode' field is divided into three parts:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| code |s|class|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*code*
*code:* the operation code, whose meaning varies by instruction
class
*s (source)* (source):* the source operand location, which unless otherwise

4.1. Arithmetic instructions Instructions
ALU uses 32-bit wide operands while ALU64 uses 64-bit wide operands
for otherwise identical operations. ALU64 instructions belong to the
base64 conformance group unless noted otherwise. The 'code' field
encodes the operation as below, where 'src' refers to the the source
operand and 'dst' refers to the value of the destination register.

Table 5: Arithmetic instructions Instructions
Underflow and overflow are allowed during arithmetic operations,
meaning the 64-bit or 32-bit value will wrap. If BPF program
execution would result in division by zero, the destination register
is instead set to zero. If execution would result in modulo by zero,
for ALU64 the value of the destination register is unchanged whereas
for ALU the upper 32 bits of the destination register are zeroed.
{ADD, X, ALU}, where 'code' = ADD, 'source' = X, and 'class' = ALU,
means:
dst = (u32) ((u32) dst + (u32) src)
where '(u32)' indicates that the upper 32 bits are zeroed.
{ADD, X, ALU64} means:
dst = dst + src
{XOR, K, ALU} means:
dst = (u32) dst ^ (u32) imm
{XOR, K, ALU64} means:
dst = dst ^ imm
Note that most arithmetic instructions have 'offset' set to 0. Only
three instructions (SDIV, SMOD, MOVSX) have a non-zero 'offset'.
Division, multiplication, and modulo operations for ALU are part of
the "divmul32" conformance group, and division, multiplication, and
modulo operations for ALU64 are part of the "divmul64" conformance
group. The division and modulo operations support both unsigned and
signed flavors.
For unsigned operations (DIV and MOD), for ALU, 'imm' is interpreted
as a 32-bit unsigned value. For ALU64, 'imm' is first sign extended
(Section 2.3) from 32 to 64 bits, and then interpreted as a 64-bit
unsigned value.
For signed operations (SDIV and SMOD), for ALU, 'imm' is interpreted
as a 32-bit signed value. For ALU64, 'imm' is first sign extended
(Section 2.3) from 32 to 64 bits, and then interpreted as a 64-bit
signed value.
Note that there are varying definitions of the signed modulo
operation when the dividend or divisor are negative, where
implementations often vary by language such that Python, Ruby, etc.
differ from C, Go, Java, etc. This specification requires that
signed modulo MUST use truncated division (where -13 % 3 == -1) as
implemented in C, Go, etc.:
a % n = a - n * trunc(a / n)
The MOVSX instruction does a move operation with sign extension.
{MOVSX, X, ALU} sign extends (Section 2.3) 8-bit and 16-bit operands
into 32-bit operands, and zeroes the remaining upper 32 bits.
{MOVSX, X, ALU64} sign extends (Section 2.3) 8-bit, 16-bit, and
32-bit operands into 64-bit operands. Unlike other arithmetic
instructions, MOVSX is only defined for register source operands (X).
{MOV, K, ALU64} means:
dst = (s64)imm
{MOV, X, ALU} means:
dst = (u32)src
{MOVSX, X, ALU} with 'offset' 8 means:
dst = (u32)(s32)(s8)src
The NEG instruction is only defined when the source bit is clear (K).
Shift operations use a mask of 0x3F (63) for 64-bit operations and
0x1F (31) for 32-bit operations.
4.2. Byte swap instructions Swap Instructions
The byte swap instructions use instruction classes of ALU and ALU64
and a 4-bit 'code' field of END.
The byte swap instructions operate on the destination register only
and do not use a separate source register or immediate value.
For ALU, the 1-bit source operand field in the opcode is used to
select what byte order the operation converts from or to. For ALU64,
the 1-bit source operand field in the opcode is reserved and MUST be
set to 0.
+=======+==========+=======+===========================+
| class | source | value Value | description Description |
+=======+==========+=======+===========================+
| ALU | LE | 0 | convert between host byte |
| | | | order and little endian |
+-------+----------+-------+---------------------------+
| ALU | BE | 1 | convert between host byte |
| | | | order and big endian |
+-------+----------+-------+---------------------------+
| ALU64 | Reserved | 0 | do byte swap |
| | | | unconditionally |
+-------+----------+-------+---------------------------+
Table 6: Byte swap instructions Swap Instructions
The 'imm' field encodes the width of the swap operations. The
following widths are supported: 16, 32 32, and 64. Width 64 operations
belong to the base64 conformance group and other swap operations
belong to the base32 conformance group.
Examples:
{END, LE, ALU} with 'imm' = 16/32/64 means:
dst = le16(dst)
dst = le32(dst)
dst = le64(dst)
{END, BE, ALU} with 'imm' = 16/32/64 means:
dst = be16(dst)
dst = be32(dst)
dst = be64(dst)
{END, TO, ALU64} with 'imm' = 16/32/64 means:
dst = bswap16(dst)
dst = bswap32(dst)
dst = bswap64(dst)
4.3. Jump instructions Instructions
JMP32 uses 32-bit wide operands and indicates the base32 conformance
group, while
group; JMP uses 64-bit wide operands for otherwise identical
operations,
operations and indicates the base64 conformance group unless
otherwise specified. The 'code' field encodes the operation as
below:

Table 7: Jump instructions Instructions
where 'PC' denotes the program counter, and the offset to increment
by is in units of 64-bit instructions relative to the instruction
following the jump instruction. Thus 'PC += 1' skips execution of
the next instruction if it's a basic instruction or results in
undefined behavior if the next instruction is a 128-bit wide
instruction.
Example:
{JSGE, X, JMP32} means:
if (s32)dst s>= (s32)src goto +offset
where 's>=' indicates a signed '>=' comparison.
{JLE, K, JMP} means:
if dst <= (u64)(s64)imm goto +offset
{JA, K, JMP32} means:
gotol +imm
where 'imm' means the branch offset comes from the 'imm' field.
Note that there are two flavors of JA instructions. The JMP class
permits a 16-bit jump offset specified by the 'offset' field, whereas
the JMP32 class permits a 32-bit jump offset specified by the 'imm'
field. A > 16-bit conditional jump greater than 16 bits may be converted to a < 16-bit
conditional jump less than 16 bits plus a 32-bit unconditional jump.
All CALL and JA instructions belong to the base32 conformance group.
4.3.1. Helper functions Functions
Helper functions are a concept whereby BPF programs can call into a
set of function calls exposed by the underlying platform.
Historically, each helper function was identified by a static ID
encoded in the 'imm' field. Further documentation of helper
functions is outside the scope of this document and standardization
is left for future work, but use is widely deployed and more
information can be found in platform-specific documentation (e.g.,
Linux kernel documentation).
Platforms that support the BPF Type Format (BTF) support identifying
a helper function by a BTF ID encoded in the 'imm' field, where the
BTF ID identifies the helper name and type. Further documentation of
BTF is outside the scope of this document and standardization is left
for future work, but use is widely deployed and more information can
be found in platform-specific documentation (e.g., Linux kernel
documentation).
4.3.2. Program-local functions Program-Local Functions
Program-local functions are functions exposed by the same BPF program
as the caller, and are referenced by offset from the instruction
following the call instruction, similar to JA. The offset is encoded
in the 'imm' field of the call instruction. An EXIT within the
program-local function will return to the caller.
5. Load and store instructions Store Instructions
For load and store instructions (LD, LDX, ST, and STX), the 8-bit
'opcode' field is divided as follows:
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|mode |sz |class|
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
*mode*
*mode:* The mode modifier is one of:
+==========+=======+==================+=====================+
+========+=======+===============================+=============+
| mode | value | description | reference |

Table 8: Mode modifier Modifier
*sz (size)* (size):* The size modifier is one of:
+======+=======+=======================+
| size | value Value | description Description |
+======+=======+=======================+
| W | 0 | word (4 bytes) |
+------+-------+-----------------------+
| H | 1 | half word (2 bytes) |

| DW | 3 | double word (8 bytes) |
+------+-------+-----------------------+
Table 9: Size modifier Modifier
Instructions using DW belong to the base64 conformance group.
*class*
*class:* The instruction class (see Instruction classes
(Section 3.3)) Section 3.3)
5.1. Regular load Load and store operations Store Operations
The MEM mode modifier is used to encode regular load and store
instructions that transfer data between a register and memory.
{MEM, <size>, STX} means:
*(size *) (dst + offset) = src
{MEM, <size>, ST} means:
*(size *) (dst + offset) = imm
{MEM, <size>, LDX} means:
dst = *(unsigned size *) (src + offset)
Where '<size>' is one of: B, H, W, or DW, and 'unsigned size' is one
of: u8, u16, u32, or u64.
5.2. Sign-extension load operations Sign-Extension Load Operations
The MEMSX mode modifier is used to encode sign-extension
(Section 2.3) load
instructions (Section 2.3) that transfer data between a register and
memory.
{MEMSX, <size>, LDX} means:
dst = *(signed size *) (src + offset)
Where '<size>' is one of: B, H, or W, and 'signed size' is one of:
s8, s16, or s32.
5.3. Atomic operations Operations
Atomic operations are operations that operate on memory and can not cannot be interrupted or
corrupted by other access to the same memory region by other BPF
programs or means outside of this specification.
All atomic operations supported by BPF are encoded as store
operations that use the ATOMIC mode modifier as follows:
* {ATOMIC, W, STX} for 32-bit operations, which are part of the
"atomic32" conformance group.
* {ATOMIC, DW, STX} for 64-bit operations, which are part of the
"atomic64" conformance group.
* 8-bit and 16-bit wide atomic operations are not supported.
The 'imm' field is used to encode the actual atomic operation.
Simple atomic operation operations use a subset of the values defined to encode
arithmetic operations in the 'imm' field to encode the atomic
operation:
+=====+=======+=============+
| imm | value Value | description Description |
+=====+=======+=============+
| ADD | 0x00 | atomic add |
+-----+-------+-------------+
| OR | 0x40 | atomic or |
+-----+-------+-------------+
| AND | 0x50 | atomic and |
+-----+-------+-------------+
| XOR | 0xa0 | atomic xor |
+-----+-------+-------------+
Table 10: Simple atomic
operations Atomic
Operations
{ATOMIC, W, STX} with 'imm' = ADD means:
*(u32 *)(dst + offset) += src
{ATOMIC, DW, STX} with 'imm' = ADD means:
*(u64 *)(dst + offset) += src
In addition to the simple atomic operations, there also is also a modifier
and two complex atomic operations:
+=========+==============+=============================+
| imm | value Value | description Description |
+=========+==============+=============================+
| FETCH | 0x01 | modifier: return old value |
+---------+--------------+-----------------------------+
| XCHG | 0xe0 | FETCH | atomic exchange |
+---------+--------------+-----------------------------+
| CMPXCHG | 0xf0 | FETCH | atomic compare and exchange |
+---------+--------------+-----------------------------+
Table 11: Complex atomic operations Atomic Operations and a Modifier
The FETCH modifier is optional for simple atomic operations, operations and is
always set for the complex atomic operations. If the FETCH flag is
set, then the operation also overwrites src with the value that was
in memory before it was modified.
The XCHG operation atomically exchanges src with the value addressed
by dst + offset.
The CMPXCHG operation atomically compares the value addressed by dst
+ offset with R0. If they match, the value addressed by dst + offset
is replaced with src. In either case, the value that was at dst +
offset before the operation is zero-extended and loaded back to R0.
5.4. 64-bit immediate instructions Immediate Instructions
Instructions with the IMM 'mode' modifier use the wide instruction
encoding defined in Instruction encoding (Section 3), Section 3, and use the 'src_reg' field of the
basic instruction to hold an opcode subtype.
The following table defines a set of {IMM, DW, LD} instructions with
opcode subtypes in the 'src_reg' field, using new terms such as "map"
defined further below:
+=========+================================+==========+==========+
| src_reg | pseudocode Pseudocode | imm type Type | dst type Type |
+=========+================================+==========+==========+
| 0x0 | dst = (next_imm << 32) | imm | integer | integer |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x1 | dst = map_by_fd(imm) | map fd | map |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x2 | dst = map_val(map_by_fd(imm)) | map fd | data |
| | + next_imm | | address |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x3 | dst = var_addr(imm) | variable | data |
| | | id | address |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x4 | dst = code_addr(imm) | integer | code |
| | | | address |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x5 | dst = map_by_idx(imm) | map | map |
| | | index | |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
| 0x6 | dst = map_val(map_by_idx(imm)) | map | data |
| | + next_imm | index | address |
+---------+--------------------------------+----------+----------+
Table 12: 64-bit immediate instructions Immediate Instructions
where
* map_by_fd(imm) means to convert a 32-bit file descriptor into an
address of a map (see Maps (Section 5.4.1)) Section 5.4.1)
* map_by_idx(imm) means to convert a 32-bit index into an address of
a map
* map_val(map) gets the address of the first value in a given map
* var_addr(imm) gets the address of a platform variable (see
Platform Variables (Section 5.4.2))
Section 5.4.2) with a given id
* code_addr(imm) gets the address of the instruction at a specified
relative offset in number of (64-bit) instructions
* the 'imm type' can be used by disassemblers for display
* the 'dst type' can be used for verification and JIT just-in-time
compilation purposes
5.4.1. Maps
Maps are shared memory regions accessible by BPF programs on some
platforms. A map can have various semantics as defined in a separate
document, and may or may not have a single contiguous memory region,
but the 'map_val(map)' is currently only defined for maps that do
have a single contiguous memory region.
Each map can have a file descriptor (fd) if supported by the
platform, where 'map_by_fd(imm)' means to get the map with the
specified file descriptor. Each BPF program can also be defined to
use a set of maps associated with the program at load time, and
'map_by_idx(imm)' means to get the map with the given index in the
set associated with the BPF program containing the instruction.
5.4.2. Platform Variables
Platform variables are memory regions, identified by integer ids,
exposed by the runtime runtime, and accessible by BPF programs on some
platforms. The 'var_addr(imm)' operation means to get the address of
the memory region identified by the given id.
5.5. Legacy BPF Packet access instructions Access Instructions
BPF previously introduced special instructions for access to packet
data that were carried over from classic BPF. These instructions
used an instruction class of LD, a size modifier of W, H, or B, and a
mode modifier of ABS or IND. The 'dst_reg' and 'offset' fields were
set to zero, and 'src_reg' was set to zero for ABS. However, these
instructions are deprecated and SHOULD no longer be used. All legacy
packet access instructions belong to the "packet" conformance group.
6. Security Considerations
BPF programs could use BPF instructions to do malicious things with
memory, CPU, networking, or other system resources. This is not
fundamentally different from any other type of software that may run
on a device. Execution environments should be carefully designed to
only run BPF programs that are trusted and verified, and sandboxing
and privilege level separation are key strategies for limiting
security and abuse impact. For example, BPF verifiers are well-known
and widely deployed and are responsible for ensuring that BPF
programs will terminate within a reasonable time, only interact with
memory in safe ways, adhere to platform-specified API contracts, and
don't use instructions with undefined behavior. This level of
verification can often provide a stronger level of security assurance
than for other software and operating system code. While the details
are out of scope of this document, Linux [LINUX] and PREVAIL
[PREVAIL] do provide many details. Future IETF work will document
verifier expectations and building blocks for allowing safe execution
of untrusted BPF programs.
Executing programs using the BPF instruction set also requires either
an interpreter or a compiler to translate them to built-in hardware
processor
native instructions. In general, interpreters are considered a
source of insecurity (e.g., gadgets susceptible to side-channel
attacks due to speculative execution) whenever one is used in the
same memory address space as data with confidentiality concerns. As
such, use of a compiler is recommended instead. Compilers should be
audited carefully for vulnerabilities to ensure that compilation of a
trusted and verified BPF program to native built-in processor instructions
does not introduce vulnerabilities.
Exposing functionality via BPF extends the interface between the
component executing the BPF program and the component submitting it.
Careful consideration of what functionality is exposed and how that
impacts the security properties desired is required.
7. IANA Considerations
This document defines two registries.
7.1. BPF Instruction Conformance Group Groups Registry

Table 13: Initial conformance groups
NOTE TO RFC-EDITOR: Upon publication, please replace RFCXXX above
with reference to this document. Conformance Groups

7.2. BPF Instruction Set Registry
This document proposes a new defines an IANA registry for BPF instructions, as
follows:
* Name of the registry: BPF Instruction Set
* Name of the registry group: BPF Instructions
* Required information for registrations: See the BPF Instruction
Registration Template (Section 7.2.1)
* Syntax of registry entries: Each entry has the following fields:
opcode, src, imm, offset, imm, description, groups, change controller,
and reference. See
BPF Instruction Registration Template (Section 7.2.1) Section 7.2.1 for more details.
* Registration policy: New instructions require a new entry in the
conformance group registry and the same registration policies
apply.
* Contact: The IESG
* Change Controller: IETF
* Initial registrations: See the Appendix. Appendix A. Instructions other than
those listed as deprecated are Permanent. Any listed as
deprecated are Historical.
7.2.1. BPF Instruction Registration Template
This template describes the fields that must be supplied in a
registration request suitable for adding to the registry: request:
Opcode: A 1-byte value in hex format indicating the value of the
opcode field
Src: field.
Src_reg: Either a numeric value indicating the value of the src src_reg
field, or "any"
Imm: "any".

Reference: A reference to the defining specification. Include full
citations for all referenced documents. Registration requests for
'Provisional' registration can be included in an Internet-Draft;
when the documents are approved for publication as an RFC, the
registration will be updated. updated to 'Permanent'.
7.3. Adding instructions Instructions
A specification may add additional instructions to the BPF
Instruction Set registry. Once a conformance group is registered
with a set of instructions, no further instructions can be added to
that conformance group. A specification should instead create a new
conformance group that includes the original conformance group, plus
any newly added instructions. Inclusion of the original conformance
group is done via the "includes" column of the BPF Instruction
Conformance Group Registry, Groups registry, and inclusion of newly added
instructions is done via the "groups" column of the BPF Instruction
Set Registry. registry.
For example, consider an existing hypothetical group called "example"
with two instructions in it. One might add two more instructions by
first adding an "examplev2" group to the BPF Instruction Conformance
Group Registry
Groups registry as follows:
+===========+==================+==========+==========+===========+
| name Name | description Description | includes Includes | excludes Excludes | status Status |
+===========+==================+==========+==========+===========+
| example | Original example | - | - | Permanent |
| | instructions | | | |
+-----------+------------------+----------+----------+-----------+
| examplev2 | Newer set of | example | - | Permanent |
| | example | | | |
| | instructions | | | |
+-----------+------------------+----------+----------+-----------+
Table 14: Conformance group example Group Example for addition Addition
And then adding the new instructions into the BPF Instruction Set
Registry
registry as follows:
+========+=====+================================+===========+
| opcode | ... | description Description | groups Groups |
+========+=====+================================+===========+
| aaa | ... | Original example instruction 1 | example |
+--------+-----+--------------------------------+-----------+
| bbb | ... | Original example instruction 2 | example |
+--------+-----+--------------------------------+-----------+
| ccc | ... | Added example instruction 3 | examplev2 |
+--------+-----+--------------------------------+-----------+
| ddd | ... | Added example instruction 4 | examplev2 |
+--------+-----+--------------------------------+-----------+
Table 15: Instruction addition example Addition Example
Supporting the "examplev2" group thus requires supporting all four
example instructions.
7.4. Deprecating instructions Instructions
Deprecating instructions that are part of an existing conformance
group can be done by defining a new conformance group for the newly
deprecated instructions, and defining a new conformance group that
supersedes the existing conformance group containing the
instructions, where the new conformance group includes the existing
one and excludes the deprecated instruction group.
For example, if deprecating an instruction in an existing
hypothetical group called "example", two new groups ("legacyexample"
and "examplev2") might be registered in the BPF Instruction
Conformance Group Registry Groups registry as follows:
+===============+==============+========+===============+==========+
| name Name | description |includes| excludes |status Description |Includes| Excludes |Status |
+===============+==============+========+===============+==========+
| example | Original |- | - |Permanent |
| | example | | | |
| | instructions | | | |
+---------------+--------------+--------+---------------+----------+
| legacyexample | Legacy |- | - |Historical|
| | example | | | |
| | instructions | | | |
+---------------+--------------+--------+---------------+----------+
| examplev2 | Example |example | legacyexample |Permanent |
| | instructions | | | |
+---------------+--------------+--------+---------------+----------+
Table 16: Conformance group example Group Example for deprecation Deprecation
The BPF Instruction Set Registry registry entries for the deprecated
instructions would then be updated to add "legacyexample" to the set
of groups for those instructions, as follows:
+========+=====+=============================+===============+
| opcode | ... | description Description | groups Groups |
+========+=====+=============================+===============+
| aaa | ... | Good original instruction 1 | example |
+--------+-----+-----------------------------+---------------+
| bbb | ... | Good original instruction 2 | example |
+--------+-----+-----------------------------+---------------+
| ccc | ... | Bad original instruction 3 | example, |
| | | | legacyexample |
+--------+-----+-----------------------------+---------------+
| ddd | ... | Bad original instruction 4 | example, |
| | | | legacyexample |
+--------+-----+-----------------------------+---------------+
Table 17: Instruction deprecation example Deprecation Example
Finally, updated implementations that dropped support for the
deprecated instructions would then be able to claim conformance to
"examplev2" rather than "example".
7.5. Change Control
Registrations can be updated in a registry by the same mechanism as
required for an initial registration. In cases where the original
definition of an entry is contained in an IESG-approved document, in
which case the IETF would be the change controller, update of the
specification also requires IESG approval.
'Provisional' registrations can be updated by the change controller
designated in the existing registration. In addition, the IESG can
reassign responsibility for a 'Provisional' registration or can
request specific changes to an entry. This will enable changes to be
made to entries where the original registrant is out of contact or
unwilling or unable to make changes.
Transition from 'Provisional' to 'Permanent' status can be requested
and approved in the same manner as a new 'Permanent' registration.
Transition from 'Permanent' to 'Historical' status requires IESG
approval. Transition from 'Provisional' to 'Historical' can be
requested by anyone authorized to update the 'Provisional'
registration.
7.6. Expert Review Instructions
The IANA registries established by this document are informed by
written specifications, which themselves are facilitated and approved
by an Expert Review process (see Section 5.3 of [RFC8126] process. [RFC8126]).
Designated Experts experts are expected to consult with the active BPF
working group (e.g., via email to the working group's mailing list)
if it exists, as well as other interested parties (e.g., via email to
one or more active mailing list(s) for relevant BPF communities and
platforms). The Designed Expert designated expert is expected to verify that the
encoding and semantics for any new instructions are properly
documented in a public-facing specification. In the event of future
RFC documents for ISA extensions, experts may permit early assignment
before the RFC document is available, as long as a specification
exists which that
satisfies the above requirements. requirements exists.
