This is awesome work! Did you also check for other architectures aside
from riscv and x86-32, e.g. x86-64 or arm64?

It would be great if we could add such verification tool under tools/bpf/
which would then take the in-tree JIT-code as-is for its analysis and
potentially even trigger a run out of BPF selftests. Any thoughts whether
such path would be feasible wrt serval?
