aya/bpf/aya-bpf/src/helpers.rs

//! This module contains kernel helper functions that may be exposed to specific BPF
//! program types. These helpers can be used to perform common tasks, query and operate on
//! data exposed by the kernel, and perform some operations that would normally be denied
//! by the BPF verifier.
//!
//! Here, we provide some higher-level wrappers around the underlying kernel helpers, but
//! also expose bindings to the underlying helpers as a fall-back in case of a missing
//! implementation.
