# Testing eBPF Program Compatibility Across Kernels with LVH and GitHub Actions

**[eBPF](https://daily.dev/sources/ebpf)** · 3 min read · 3 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Learn how to automate eBPF program compatibility testing across multiple kernel versions using Little VM Helper (LVH) and GitHub Actions. LVH is a VM management tool maintained by Cilium that simplifies kernel-dependent testing through pre-built kernel images. The approach eliminates manual VM setup for each kernel version, enabling fast iteration and reliable CI/CD pipelines for production-grade eBPF programs.
