+## Overview
+
+Monitor latency for each HardIRQ available.
+
+Attach tracepoints to internal kernel functions.
+
+This collector is only supported on the following platforms:
+
+- Linux
+
+This collector supports collecting metrics from multiple instances of this integration, including remote instances.
+
+The plugin needs setuid because it loads data inside kernel. Netada sets necessary permission during installation time.
+
+### Default Behavior
+
+#### Auto-Detection
+
+The plugin checks kernel compilation flags (CONFIG_KPROBES, CONFIG_BPF, CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL, CONFIG_BPF_JIT), files inside debugfs, and presence of BTF files to decide which eBPF program will be attached.
+
+#### Limits
+
+The default configuration for this integration does not impose any limits on data collection.
+
+#### Performance Impact
+
+This thread will add overhead every time that an internal kernel function monitored by this thread is called.
+
+
+## Metrics
+
+Metrics grouped by *scope*.
+
+The scope defines the instance that the metric belongs to. An instance is uniquely identified by a set of labels.
+
+
+
+### Per eBPF Hardirq instance
+
+These metrics show latest timestamp for each hardIRQ available on host.
+
+This scope has no labels.
+
+Metrics:
+
+| Metric | Dimensions | Unit |
+|:------|:----------|:----|
+| system.hardirq_latency | hardirq names | milliseconds |
+
+
+
+## Alerts
+
+There are no alerts configured by default for this integration.
+
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+#### Compile kernel
+
+Check if your kernel was compiled with necessary options (CONFIG_KPROBES, CONFIG_BPF, CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL, CONFIG_BPF_JIT) in `/proc/config.gz` or inside /boot/config file. Some cited names can be different accoring preferences of Linux distributions.
+When you do not have options set, it is necessary to get the kernel source code from https://kernel.org or a kernel package from your distribution, this last is preferred. The kernel compilation has a well definedd pattern, but distributions can deliver their configuration files
+with different names.
+
+Now follow steps:
+1. Copy the configuration file to /usr/src/linux/.config.
+2. Select the necessary options: make oldconfig
+3. Compile your kernel image: make bzImage
+4. Compile your modules: make modules
+5. Copy your new kernel image for boot loader directory
+6. Install the new modules: make modules_install
+7. Generate an initial ramdisk image (`initrd`) if it is necessary.
+8. Update your boot loader
+
+
+#### Debug Filesystem
+
+This thread needs to attach a tracepoint to monitor when a process schedule an exit event. To allow this specific feaure, it is necessary to mount `debugfs` (`mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/`).
+
+
+
+### Configuration
+
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `ebpf.d/hardirq.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config ebpf.d/hardirq.conf
+```
+#### Options
+
+All options are defined inside section `[global]`.
+
+
+<details><summary>Config options</summary>
+
+| Name | Description | Default | Required |
+|:----|:-----------|:-------|:--------:|
+| update every | Data collection frequency. | 5 | no |
+| ebpf load mode | Define whether plugin will monitor the call (`entry`) for the functions or it will also monitor the return (`return`). | entry | no |
+| lifetime | Set default lifetime for thread when enabled by cloud. | 300 | no |
+
+</details>
+
+#### Examples
+There are no configuration examples.
