STRUCT BPF_KSOCK_CREATE_OPTS(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for struct bpf_ksock_create_opts — and the header vibe is struct bpf_k..._create_opts(9), iykyk ✨. It's literally the BPF kernel socket creation parameters: the lil blueprint you reach for when you're setting up one of these sockets. 🧚

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       struct bpf_ksock_create_opts {
           __u8 family;
           __u8 type;
           __u8 protocol;
           __u8 reserved;
        };

no cap, that's the whole shape of it 🫶

🎀 Members 🎀

• family — Address family: AF_INET or AF_INET6. Pick your fave IP situation 💖
• type — Socket type: only SOCK_DGRAM supported for now. That's the whole menu rn, bestie.
• protocol — Protocol number (e.g. IPPROTO_UDP), or 0 for the default protocol of the given type. Slay default protocol energy ✨
• reserved — Must be zero. Reserved for future use. Do not touch, it's giving "future main character" 🔮
