+ * int bpf_perf_event_read_value(struct bpf_map *map, u64 flags, struct bpf_perf_event_value *buf, u32 buf_size)
+ * Description
+ * Read the value of a perf event counter, and store it into *buf*
+ * of size *buf_size*. This helper relies on a *map* of type
+ * **BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY**. The nature of the perf event
+ * counter is selected when *map* is updated with perf event file
+ * descriptors. The *map* is an array whose size is the number of
+ * available CPUs, and each cell contains a value relative to one
+ * CPU. The value to retrieve is indicated by *flags*, that
+ * contains the index of the CPU to look up, masked with
+ * **BPF_F_INDEX_MASK**. Alternatively, *flags* can be set to
+ * **BPF_F_CURRENT_CPU** to indicate that the value for the
+ * current CPU should be retrieved.
+ *
+ * This helper behaves in a way close to
+ * **bpf_perf_event_read**\ () helper, save that instead of
+ * just returning the value observed, it fills the *buf*
+ * structure. This allows for additional data to be retrieved: in
+ * particular, the enabled and running times (in *buf*\
+ * **->enabled** and *buf*\ **->running**, respectively) are
+ * copied. In general, **bpf_perf_event_read_value**\ () is
+ * recommended over **bpf_perf_event_read**\ (), which has some
+ * ABI issues and provides fewer functionalities.
+ *
+ * These values are interesting, because hardware PMU (Performance
+ * Monitoring Unit) counters are limited resources. When there are
+ * more PMU based perf events opened than available counters,
+ * kernel will multiplex these events so each event gets certain
+ * percentage (but not all) of the PMU time. In case that
+ * multiplexing happens, the number of samples or counter value
+ * will not reflect the case compared to when no multiplexing
+ * occurs. This makes comparison between different runs difficult.
+ * Typically, the counter value should be normalized before
+ * comparing to other experiments. The usual normalization is done
+ * as follows.
+ *
+ * ::
+ *
+ * normalized_counter = counter * t_enabled / t_running
+ *
+ * Where t_enabled is the time enabled for event and t_running is
+ * the time running for event since last normalization. The
+ * enabled and running times are accumulated since the perf event
+ * open. To achieve scaling factor between two invocations of an
+ * eBPF program, users can can use CPU id as the key (which is
+ * typical for perf array usage model) to remember the previous
+ * value and do the calculation inside the eBPF program.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_perf_prog_read_value(struct bpf_perf_event_data_kern *ctx, struct bpf_perf_event_value *buf, u32 buf_size)
+ * Description
+ * For en eBPF program attached to a perf event, retrieve the
+ * value of the event counter associated to *ctx* and store it in
+ * the structure pointed by *buf* and of size *buf_size*. Enabled
+ * and running times are also stored in the structure (see
+ * description of helper **bpf_perf_event_read_value**\ () for
+ * more details).
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_getsockopt(struct bpf_sock_ops_kern *bpf_socket, int level, int optname, char *optval, int optlen)
+ * Description
+ * Emulate a call to **getsockopt()** on the socket associated to
+ * *bpf_socket*, which must be a full socket. The *level* at
+ * which the option resides and the name *optname* of the option
+ * must be specified, see **getsockopt(2)** for more information.
+ * The retrieved value is stored in the structure pointed by
+ * *opval* and of length *optlen*.
+ *
+ * This helper actually implements a subset of **getsockopt()**.
+ * It supports the following *level*\ s:
+ *
+ * * **IPPROTO_TCP**, which supports *optname*
+ * **TCP_CONGESTION**.
+ * * **IPPROTO_IP**, which supports *optname* **IP_TOS**.
+ * * **IPPROTO_IPV6**, which supports *optname* **IPV6_TCLASS**.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_override_return(struct pt_reg *regs, u64 rc)
+ * Description
+ * Used for error injection, this helper uses kprobes to override
+ * the return value of the probed function, and to set it to *rc*.
+ * The first argument is the context *regs* on which the kprobe
+ * works.
+ *
+ * This helper works by setting setting the PC (program counter)
+ * to an override function which is run in place of the original
+ * probed function. This means the probed function is not run at
+ * all. The replacement function just returns with the required
+ * value.
+ *
+ * This helper has security implications, and thus is subject to
+ * restrictions. It is only available if the kernel was compiled
+ * with the **CONFIG_BPF_KPROBE_OVERRIDE** configuration
+ * option, and in this case it only works on functions tagged with
+ * **ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION** in the kernel code.
+ *
+ * Also, the helper is only available for the architectures having
+ * the CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION option. As of this writing,
+ * x86 architecture is the only one to support this feature.
+ * Return
+ * 0
+ *
+ * int bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags_set(struct bpf_sock_ops_kern *bpf_sock, int argval)
+ * Description
+ * Attempt to set the value of the **bpf_sock_ops_cb_flags** field
+ * for the full TCP socket associated to *bpf_sock_ops* to
+ * *argval*.
+ *
+ * The primary use of this field is to determine if there should
+ * be calls to eBPF programs of type
+ * **BPF_PROG_TYPE_SOCK_OPS** at various points in the TCP
+ * code. A program of the same type can change its value, per
+ * connection and as necessary, when the connection is
+ * established. This field is directly accessible for reading, but
+ * this helper must be used for updates in order to return an
+ * error if an eBPF program tries to set a callback that is not
+ * supported in the current kernel.
+ *
+ * The supported callback values that *argval* can combine are:
+ *
+ * * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_RTO_CB_FLAG** (retransmission time out)
+ * * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_RETRANS_CB_FLAG** (retransmission)
+ * * **BPF_SOCK_OPS_STATE_CB_FLAG** (TCP state change)
+ *
+ * Here are some examples of where one could call such eBPF
+ * program:
+ *
+ * * When RTO fires.
+ * * When a packet is retransmitted.
+ * * When the connection terminates.
+ * * When a packet is sent.
+ * * When a packet is received.
+ * Return
+ * Code **-EINVAL** if the socket is not a full TCP socket;
+ * otherwise, a positive number containing the bits that could not
+ * be set is returned (which comes down to 0 if all bits were set
+ * as required).
+ *
+ * int bpf_bind(struct bpf_sock_addr_kern *ctx, struct sockaddr *addr, int addr_len)
+ * Description
+ * Bind the socket associated to *ctx* to the address pointed by
+ * *addr*, of length *addr_len*. This allows for making outgoing
+ * connection from the desired IP address, which can be useful for
+ * example when all processes inside a cgroup should use one
+ * single IP address on a host that has multiple IP configured.
+ *
+ * This helper works for IPv4 and IPv6, TCP and UDP sockets. The
+ * domain (*addr*\ **->sa_family**) must be **AF_INET** (or
+ * **AF_INET6**). Looking for a free port to bind to can be
+ * expensive, therefore binding to port is not permitted by the
+ * helper: *addr*\ **->sin_port** (or **sin6_port**, respectively)
+ * must be set to zero.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
