 programs and they have to be adjusted accordingly.

+Q: Attaching to arbitrary kernel functions is an ABI?
+-----------------------------------------------------
+Q: BPF programs can be attached to many kernel functions.  Do these
+kernel functions become part of the ABI?
+
+A: NO.
+
+The kernel function prototypes will change, and BPF programs attaching to
+them will need to change.  The BPF compile-once-run-everywhere (CO-RE)
+should be used in order to make it easier to adapt your BPF programs to
+different versions of the kernel.
