SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of new eBPF-based Cloud Native Network Function (CNF) projects, providing a standardized directory structure and boilerplate code to accelerate development.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project Scaffolding: Generates a complete project structure including eBPF C code, Go userspace application, and build configurations.
  • Boilerplate Code: Provides essential templates for eBPF programs, Go applications, and build scripts.
  • Use Case: When starting a new eBPF networking project, use this Skill to quickly set up a well-organized foundation, allowing you to focus immediately on implementing the core logic.

Quick Start

Use the ebpf-cnf-scaffold skill to create a new CNF named 'packet-logger' using the XDP hook.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold an eBPF cloud native network function project?

Scaffolding an eBPF CNF project requires specifying the CNF name, hook type, functionality, map needs, and Dockerfile inclusion. The skill then generates the directory structure, C kernel code, Go userspace app, and build configuration.

What boilerplate code is included when generating a new eBPF CNF?

Generating an eBPF CNF includes boilerplate C kernel code for the eBPF programs, a Go userspace application, and build scripts to provide a standardized foundation for immediate core logic implementation.

Can I use this scaffolding tool to generate an XDP hook for my eBPF networking project?

Yes, you can generate an XDP hook for your eBPF networking project by specifying XDP as the hook type during the scaffolding process, which tailors the boilerplate C kernel code accordingly.

Do I need to include a Dockerfile when creating a new eBPF CNF project?

Including a Dockerfile when creating an eBPF CNF project is optional. You specify your Dockerfile needs during setup, and the skill tailors the generated build configuration to match your containerization requirements.

What is the best way to set up a Go userspace application for an eBPF program?

The best way to set up a Go userspace application for an eBPF program is using this scaffolding skill, which automatically generates the userspace Go app alongside the kernel code and build scripts.
