I was actually using the example from the BSD bpf(4) man page, 
and expanding on that one.. 
  https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bpf&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+4.7-RELEASE
(I could not find the equivalent linux man page).

It was a lot easier to parse than the existing code .

You think the earlier code was readable? I had to use
gcc -E, with help from the bpf(4) page, to make sense of it.
