+ *
+ * int bpf_trace_printk(const char *fmt, u32 fmt_size, ...)
+ * Description
+ * This helper is a "printk()-like" facility for debugging. It
+ * prints a message defined by format *fmt* (of size *fmt_size*)
+ * to file *\/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace* from DebugFS, if
+ * available. It can take up to three additional **u64**
+ * arguments (as an eBPF helpers, the total number of arguments is
+ * limited to five).
+ *
+ * Each time the helper is called, it appends a line to the trace.
+ * The format of the trace is customizable, and the exact output
+ * one will get depends on the options set in
+ * *\/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_options* (see also the
+ * *README* file under the same directory). However, it usually
+ * defaults to something like:
+ *
+ * ::
+ *
+ * telnet-470 [001] .N.. 419421.045894: 0x00000001: <formatted msg>
+ *
+ * In the above:
+ *
+ * * ``telnet`` is the name of the current task.
+ * * ``470`` is the PID of the current task.
+ * * ``001`` is the CPU number on which the task is
+ * running.
+ * * In ``.N..``, each character refers to a set of
+ * options (whether irqs are enabled, scheduling
+ * options, whether hard/softirqs are running, level of
+ * preempt_disabled respectively). **N** means that
+ * **TIF_NEED_RESCHED** and **PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED**
+ * are set.
+ * * ``419421.045894`` is a timestamp.
+ * * ``0x00000001`` is a fake value used by BPF for the
+ * instruction pointer register.
+ * * ``<formatted msg>`` is the message formatted with
+ * *fmt*.
+ *
+ * The conversion specifiers supported by *fmt* are similar, but
+ * more limited than for printk(). They are **%d**, **%i**,
+ * **%u**, **%x**, **%ld**, **%li**, **%lu**, **%lx**, **%lld**,
+ * **%lli**, **%llu**, **%llx**, **%p**, **%s**. No modifier (size
+ * of field, padding with zeroes, etc.) is available, and the
+ * helper will return **-EINVAL** (but print nothing) if it
+ * encounters an unknown specifier.
+ *
+ * Also, note that **bpf_trace_printk**\ () is slow, and should
+ * only be used for debugging purposes. For this reason, a notice
+ * bloc (spanning several lines) is printed to kernel logs and
+ * states that the helper should not be used "for production use"
+ * the first time this helper is used (or more precisely, when
+ * **trace_printk**\ () buffers are allocated). For passing values
+ * to user space, perf events should be preferred.
+ * Return
+ * The number of bytes written to the buffer, or a negative error
+ * in case of failure.
+ *
+ * u32 bpf_get_prandom_u32(void)
+ * Description
+ * Get a pseudo-random number.
+ *
+ * From a security point of view, this helper uses its own
+ * pseudo-random internal state, and cannot be used to infer the
+ * seed of other random functions in the kernel. However, it is
+ * essential to note that the generator used by the helper is not
+ * cryptographically secure.
+ * Return
+ * A random 32-bit unsigned value.
+ *
+ * u32 bpf_get_smp_processor_id(void)
+ * Description
+ * Get the SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) processor id. Note that
+ * all programs run with preemption disabled, which means that the
+ * SMP processor id is stable during all the execution of the
+ * program.
+ * Return
+ * The SMP id of the processor running the program.
+ *
+ * int bpf_skb_store_bytes(struct sk_buff *skb, u32 offset, const void *from, u32 len, u64 flags)
+ * Description
+ * Store *len* bytes from address *from* into the packet
+ * associated to *skb*, at *offset*. *flags* are a combination of
+ * **BPF_F_RECOMPUTE_CSUM** (automatically recompute the
+ * checksum for the packet after storing the bytes) and
+ * **BPF_F_INVALIDATE_HASH** (set *skb*\ **->hash**, *skb*\
+ * **->swhash** and *skb*\ **->l4hash** to 0).
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_l3_csum_replace(struct sk_buff *skb, u32 offset, u64 from, u64 to, u64 size)
+ * Description
+ * Recompute the layer 3 (e.g. IP) checksum for the packet
+ * associated to *skb*. Computation is incremental, so the helper
+ * must know the former value of the header field that was
+ * modified (*from*), the new value of this field (*to*), and the
+ * number of bytes (2 or 4) for this field, stored in *size*.
+ * Alternatively, it is possible to store the difference between
+ * the previous and the new values of the header field in *to*, by
+ * setting *from* and *size* to 0. For both methods, *offset*
+ * indicates the location of the IP checksum within the packet.
+ *
+ * This helper works in combination with **bpf_csum_diff**\ (),
+ * which does not update the checksum in-place, but offers more
+ * flexibility and can handle sizes larger than 2 or 4 for the
+ * checksum to update.
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_l4_csum_replace(struct sk_buff *skb, u32 offset, u64 from, u64 to, u64 flags)
+ * Description
+ * Recompute the layer 4 (e.g. TCP, UDP or ICMP) checksum for the
+ * packet associated to *skb*. Computation is incremental, so the
+ * helper must know the former value of the header field that was
+ * modified (*from*), the new value of this field (*to*), and the
+ * number of bytes (2 or 4) for this field, stored on the lowest
+ * four bits of *flags*. Alternatively, it is possible to store
+ * the difference between the previous and the new values of the
+ * header field in *to*, by setting *from* and the four lowest
+ * bits of *flags* to 0. For both methods, *offset* indicates the
+ * location of the IP checksum within the packet. In addition to
+ * the size of the field, *flags* can be added (bitwise OR) actual
+ * flags. With **BPF_F_MARK_MANGLED_0**, a null checksum is left
+ * untouched (unless **BPF_F_MARK_ENFORCE** is added as well), and
+ * for updates resulting in a null checksum the value is set to
+ * **CSUM_MANGLED_0** instead. Flag **BPF_F_PSEUDO_HDR** indicates
+ * the checksum is to be computed against a pseudo-header.
+ *
+ * This helper works in combination with **bpf_csum_diff**\ (),
+ * which does not update the checksum in-place, but offers more
+ * flexibility and can handle sizes larger than 2 or 4 for the
+ * checksum to update.
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_tail_call(void *ctx, struct bpf_map *prog_array_map, u32 index)
+ * Description
+ * This special helper is used to trigger a "tail call", or in
+ * other words, to jump into another eBPF program. The same stack
+ * frame is used (but values on stack and in registers for the
+ * caller are not accessible to the callee). This mechanism allows
+ * for program chaining, either for raising the maximum number of
+ * available eBPF instructions, or to execute given programs in
+ * conditional blocks. For security reasons, there is an upper
+ * limit to the number of successive tail calls that can be
+ * performed.
+ *
+ * Upon call of this helper, the program attempts to jump into a
+ * program referenced at index *index* in *prog_array_map*, a
+ * special map of type **BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY**, and passes
+ * *ctx*, a pointer to the context.
+ *
+ * If the call succeeds, the kernel immediately runs the first
+ * instruction of the new program. This is not a function call,
+ * and it never returns to the previous program. If the call
+ * fails, then the helper has no effect, and the caller continues
+ * to run its subsequent instructions. A call can fail if the
+ * destination program for the jump does not exist (i.e. *index*
+ * is superior to the number of entries in *prog_array_map*), or
+ * if the maximum number of tail calls has been reached for this
+ * chain of programs. This limit is defined in the kernel by the
+ * macro **MAX_TAIL_CALL_CNT** (not accessible to user space),
+ * which is currently set to 32.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_clone_redirect(struct sk_buff *skb, u32 ifindex, u64 flags)
+ * Description
+ * Clone and redirect the packet associated to *skb* to another
+ * net device of index *ifindex*. Both ingress and egress
+ * interfaces can be used for redirection. The **BPF_F_INGRESS**
+ * value in *flags* is used to make the distinction (ingress path
+ * is selected if the flag is present, egress path otherwise).
+ * This is the only flag supported for now.
+ *
+ * In comparison with **bpf_redirect**\ () helper,
+ * **bpf_clone_redirect**\ () has the associated cost of
+ * duplicating the packet buffer, but this can be executed out of
+ * the eBPF program. Conversely, **bpf_redirect**\ () is more
+ * efficient, but it is handled through an action code where the
+ * redirection happens only after the eBPF program has returned.
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
*
* u64 bpf_get_current_pid_tgid(void)
- * Return: current->tgid << 32 | current->pid
+ * Return
+ * A 64-bit integer containing the current tgid and pid, and
+ * created as such:
+ * *current_task*\ **->tgid << 32 \|**
+ * *current_task*\ **->pid**.
*
* u64 bpf_get_current_uid_gid(void)
- * Return: current_gid << 32 | current_uid

+ * int bpf_get_current_comm(char *buf, u32 size_of_buf)
+ * Description
+ * Copy the **comm** attribute of the current task into *buf* of
+ * *size_of_buf*. The **comm** attribute contains the name of
+ * the executable (excluding the path) for the current task. The
+ * *size_of_buf* must be strictly positive. On success, the
+ * helper makes sure that the *buf* is NUL-terminated. On failure,
+ * it is filled with zeroes.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * u32 bpf_get_cgroup_classid(struct sk_buff *skb)
+ * Description
+ * Retrieve the classid for the current task, i.e. for the net_cls
+ * cgroup to which *skb* belongs.
+ *
+ * This helper can be used on TC egress path, but not on ingress.
+ *
+ * The net_cls cgroup provides an interface to tag network packets
+ * based on a user-provided identifier for all traffic coming from
+ * the tasks belonging to the related cgroup. See also the related
+ * kernel documentation, available from the Linux sources in file
+ * *Documentation/cgroup-v1/net_cls.txt*.
+ *
+ * The Linux kernel has two versions for cgroups: there are
+ * cgroups v1 and cgroups v2. Both are available to users, who can
+ * use a mixture of them, but note that the net_cls cgroup is for
+ * cgroup v1 only. This makes it incompatible with BPF programs
+ * run on cgroups, which is a cgroup-v2-only feature (a socket can
+ * only hold data for one version of cgroups at a time).
+ *
+ * This helper is only available is the kernel was compiled with
+ * the **CONFIG_CGROUP_NET_CLASSID** configuration option set to
+ * "**y**" or to "**m**".
+ * Return
+ * The classid, or 0 for the default unconfigured classid.
+ *
+ * int bpf_skb_vlan_push(struct sk_buff *skb, __be16 vlan_proto, u16 vlan_tci)
+ * Description
+ * Push a *vlan_tci* (VLAN tag control information) of protocol
+ * *vlan_proto* to the packet associated to *skb*, then update
+ * the checksum. Note that if *vlan_proto* is different from
+ * **ETH_P_8021Q** and **ETH_P_8021AD**, it is considered to
+ * be **ETH_P_8021Q**.
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_skb_vlan_pop(struct sk_buff *skb)
+ * Description
+ * Pop a VLAN header from the packet associated to *skb*.
+ *
+ * A call to this helper is susceptible to change the underlaying
+ * packet buffer. Therefore, at load time, all checks on pointers
+ * previously done by the verifier are invalidated and must be
+ * performed again, if the helper is used in combination with
+ * direct packet access.
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
+ *
+ * int bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key(struct sk_buff *skb, struct bpf_tunnel_key *key, u32 size, u64 flags)
+ * Description
+ * Get tunnel metadata. This helper takes a pointer *key* to an
+ * empty **struct bpf_tunnel_key** of **size**, that will be
+ * filled with tunnel metadata for the packet associated to *skb*.
+ * The *flags* can be set to **BPF_F_TUNINFO_IPV6**, which
+ * indicates that the tunnel is based on IPv6 protocol instead of
+ * IPv4.
+ *
+ * The **struct bpf_tunnel_key** is an object that generalizes the
+ * principal parameters used by various tunneling protocols into a
+ * single struct. This way, it can be used to easily make a
+ * decision based on the contents of the encapsulation header,
+ * "summarized" in this struct. In particular, it holds the IP
+ * address of the remote end (IPv4 or IPv6, depending on the case)
+ * in *key*\ **->remote_ipv4** or *key*\ **->remote_ipv6**. Also,
+ * this struct exposes the *key*\ **->tunnel_id**, which is
+ * generally mapped to a VNI (Virtual Network Identifier), making
+ * it programmable together with the **bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key**\
+ * () helper.
+ *
+ * Let's imagine that the following code is part of a program
+ * attached to the TC ingress interface, on one end of a GRE
+ * tunnel, and is supposed to filter out all messages coming from
+ * remote ends with IPv4 address other than 10.0.0.1:
+ *
+ * ::
+ *
+ * int ret;
+ * struct bpf_tunnel_key key = {};
+ *
+ * ret = bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key(skb, &key, sizeof(key), 0);
+ * if (ret < 0)
+ * return TC_A
