 Legacy BPF Packet access instructions
 -------------------------------------
 
-eBPF has special instructions for access to packet data that have been
-carried over from classic BPF to retain the performance of legacy socket
-filters running in the eBPF interpreter.
-
-The instructions come in two forms: ``BPF_ABS | <size> | BPF_LD`` and
-``BPF_IND | <size> | BPF_LD``.
-
-These instructions are used to access packet data and can only be used when
-the program context is a pointer to networking packet.  ``BPF_ABS``
-accesses packet data at an absolute offset specified by the immediate data
-and ``BPF_IND`` access packet data at an offset that includes the value of
-a register in addition to the immediate data.
-
-These instructions have seven implicit operands:
-
- * Register R6 is an implicit input that must contain pointer to a
-   struct sk_buff.
- * Register R0 is an implicit output which contains the data fetched from
-   the packet.
- * Registers R1-R5 are scratch registers that are clobbered after a call to
-   ``BPF_ABS | BPF_LD`` or ``BPF_IND | BPF_LD`` instructions.
-
-These instructions have an implicit program exit condition as well. When an
-eBPF program is trying to access the data beyond the packet boundary, the
-program execution will be aborted.

-``BPF_ABS | BPF_W | BPF_LD`` means::

+Legacy BPF Packet access instructions
+=====================================
+
+As mentioned in the `ISA standard documentation <instruction-set.rst#legacy-bpf-packet-access-instructions>`_,
+Linux has special eBPF instructions for access to packet data that have been
+carried over from classic BPF to retain the performance of legacy socket
+filters running in the eBPF interpreter.
+
+The instructions come in two forms: ``BPF_ABS | <size> | BPF_LD`` and
+``BPF_IND | <size> | BPF_LD``.
+
+These instructions are used to access packet data and can only be used when
+the program context is a pointer to a networking packet.  ``BPF_ABS``
+accesses packet data at an absolute offset specified by the immediate data
+and ``BPF_IND`` access packet data at an offset that includes the value of
+a register in addition to the immediate data.
+
+These instructions have seven implicit operands:
+
+* Register R6 is an implicit input that must contain a pointer to a
+  struct sk_buff.
+* Register R0 is an implicit output which contains the data fetched from
+  the packet.
+* Registers R1-R5 are scratch registers that are clobbered by the
+  instruction.
+
+These instructions have an implicit program exit condition as well. If an
+eBPF program attempts access data beyond the packet boundary, the
+program execution will be aborted.
+
+``BPF_ABS | BPF_W | BPF_LD`` (0x20) means::
+
+  R0 = ntohl(*(u32 *) ((struct sk_buff *) R6->data + imm))
+
+where ``ntohl()`` converts a 32-bit value from network byte order to host byte order.
+
+``BPF_IND | BPF_W | BPF_LD`` (0x40) means::
+
+  R0 = ntohl(*(u32 *) ((struct sk_buff *) R6->data + src + imm))
