# Implementation
* [[community/HurdFr]]
* <http://wiki.hurdfr.org/index.php/BPF>
* <http://wiki.hurdfr.org/index.php/Reseau_dans_gnumach>
* Git repository: <http://rcs-git.duckcorp.org/hurdfr/bpf.git/>
The patch for [[GNU Mach|microkernel/mach/gnumach]] is expected to be
complete and functional, the [[hurd/translator]] less so -- amongst others,
there are unresolved issues concerning support of [[hurd/glibc/IOCTL]]s.
