Something like ...


------------ filter.txt

BPF documentation can now be found in the following places:

- Introduction to BPF (Linux Socket Filter) - Documentation/userspace-api/socket-filter.rst
- Classic BPF (cBPF) - Documentation/userspace-api/cBPF.rst
- Internal BPF (eBPF) - Documentation/userspace-api/eBPF.rst

- SECCOMP BPF - Documentation/userspace-api/seccomp_filter.rst

- BPF Design Q&A - Documentation/bpf/bpf_design_QA.rst
- BPF Development Q&A - Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst

-------------


Also this highlights that bpf/index.rst is not quite correct yet in this
set.  The Q&A files are indexed but not explicitly mentioned.  My
feeling is that bpf/index.rst should mirror the information above.

thanks,
Tobin.
