val bpf_object__open : 
  (string ->
    Types.bpf_object Ctypes.structure Ctypes_static.ptr option F.return)

0, on success; negative error code, otherwise

Source

val bpf_program__attach :

    F.result

bpf_program__attach prog is a generic function for attaching a BPF program based on auto-detection of program type, attach type, and extra paremeters, where applicable.

This is supported for:

kprobe/kretprobe (depends on SEC() definition)
uprobe/uretprobe (depends on SEC() definition)
tracepoint
raw tracepoint
tracing programs (typed raw TP/fentry/fexit/fmod_ret)

Returns pointer to the newly created BPF link; or NULL is returned on error, error code is stored in errno

Source

val bpf_map__fd :

    Unsigned.size_t ->
    Unsigned.uint64 ->
    int F.return)
    F.result

bpf_map__lookup_elem map_ptr key_ptr key_sz val_ptr val_sz flags allows to lookup BPF map value corresponding to provided key.

bpf_map__lookup_elem is high-level equivalent of bpf_map_lookup_elem API with added check for key and value size.

sizes are in bytes of key and value data. For per-CPU BPF maps value size has to be a product of BPF map value size and number of possible CPUs in the system (could be fetched with libbpf_num_possible_cpus()). Note also that for per-CPU values value size has to be aligned up to closest 8 bytes for alignment reasons, so expected size is: round_up(value_size, 8)

Returns 0, on success; negative error, otherwise

    F.result

bpf_map__update_elem map_ptr key_ptr key_sz val_ptr val_sz flags allows to insert or update value in BPF map that corresponds to provided key.

bpf_map__update_elem is high-level equivalent of bpf_map_update_elem API with added check for key and value size.

Check bpf_map__lookup_elem for details on sizes. Returns 0, on success; negative error, otherwise
