Subject: Re: arch: arm: bpf: Converting cBPF to eBPF for arm 32 bit

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the last reply about the testing of eBPF JIT.

I have one issue though, I am not able to find what BPF_ABS and
BPF_IND instruction does exactly. It not described on this link -
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/filter.txt either.
Can you please tell me where I could find the description of these
instructions please?
Best,
Shubham Bansal
