+The eBPF module requires the following kernel features:
+KProbes (CONFIG_KPROBES = y)
+syscalls tracing support (CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS = y)
+
+Instructions are taken from the following website:
+https://www.slackbook.org/html/system-configuration-kernel.html
+
+Run all of the following commands below as root.
+
+- Enter into the kernel source directory:
+cd /usr/src/linux
+
+- Back up the current .config file:
+cp .config .config_backup
+
+- Bring the kernel back to its base state:
+make mrproper
+
+- Restore the previous .config file:
+cp .config_backup .config
+
+- Configure the kernel (it will load up .config):
+make menuconfig
+
+- Enable KProbes support:
+General architecture-dependent-options --->
+ [*] KProbes
+
+- Enable syscalls tracing:
+Kernel Hacking --->
+ [*] Tracers --->
+ [*] Trace Syscalls
+
+- Save the changes before exiting.
+- After exiting, prepare the source tree for compiling:
+make dep
+make clean
+
+- Compile the kernel:
+make bzImage
+
+- Then compile kernel modules:
+make modules
+
+- Back up previous vmlinuz and System.map files
+- Then copy the new vmlinuz and System.map files to /boot
+- For example (change depending on ARCH, generic vs huge kernel, etc.):
+KERNEL_VER=$(uname -r)
+mv /boot/vmlinuz-generic-$KERNEL_VER /boot/vmlinuz-generic-$KERNEL_VER-old
+cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-generic-$KERNEL_VER
+mv /boot/System.map-generic-$KERNEL_VER /boot/System.map-generic-$KERNEL_VER.old
+cp System.map /boot/System.map-generic-$KERNEL_VER
+
+- Finally, install the kernel:
+make modules_install
+
+- Please complete any extra necessary steps on your system
+(ex. recompile initrd, run /sbin/lilo, etc.)
