+<h4 class="subsection">6.60.12 BPF Built-in Functions</h4>
+
+<p>The following built-in functions are available for eBPF targets.
+</p>
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-_005f_005fbuiltin_005fbpf_005fload_005fbyte"></a>Built-in Function: <em>unsigned long long</em> <strong>__builtin_bpf_load_byte</strong> <em>(unsigned long long <var>offset</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>Load a byte from the <code>struct sk_buff</code> packet data pointed by the register <code>%r6</code> and return it.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-_005f_005fbuiltin_005fbpf_005fload_005fhalf"></a>Built-in Function: <em>unsigned long long</em> <strong>__builtin_bpf_load_half</strong> <em>(unsigned long long <var>offset</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>Load 16 bits from the <code>struct sk_buff</code> packet data pointed by the register <code>%r6</code> and return it.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-_005f_005fbuiltin_005fbpf_005fload_005fword"></a>Built-in Function: <em>unsigned long long</em> <strong>__builtin_bpf_load_word</strong> <em>(unsigned long long <var>offset</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>Load 32 bits from the <code>struct sk_buff</code> packet data pointed by the register <code>%r6</code> and return it.
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-_005f_005fbuiltin_005fpreserve_005faccess_005findex"></a>Built-in Function: <em>void *</em> <strong>__builtin_preserve_access_index</strong> <em>(<var>expr</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>BPF Compile Once-Run Everywhere (CO-RE) support. Instruct GCC to generate CO-RE relocation records for any accesses to aggregate data structures (struct, union, array types) in <var>expr</var>. This builtin is otherwise transparent, the return value is whatever <var>expr</var> evaluates to. It is also overloaded: <var>expr</var> may be of any type (not necessarily a pointer), the return type is the same. Has no effect if <code>-mco-re</code> is not in effect (either specified or implied).
+</p></dd></dl>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a name="index-_005f_005fbuiltin_005fpreserve_005ffield_005finfo"></a>Built-in Function: <em>unsigned int</em> <strong>__builtin_preserve_field_info</strong> <em>(<var>expr</var>, unsigned int <var>kind</var>)</em></dt>
+<dd><p>BPF Compile Once-Run Everywhere (CO-RE) support. This builtin is used to
+extract information to aid in struct/union relocations. <var>expr</var> is
+an access to a field of a struct or union. Depending on <var>kind</var>, different
+information is returned to the program. A CO-RE relocation for the access in
+<var>expr</var> with kind <var>kind</var> is recorded if <code>-mco-re</code> is in effect.
+</p>
+<p>The following values are supported for <var>kind</var>:
+</p><dl compact="compact">
+<dt><code>FIELD_BYTE_OFFSET = 0</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The returned value is the offset, in bytes, of the field from the
+beginning of the containing structure. For bit-fields, this is the byte offset
+of the containing word.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>FIELD_BYTE_SIZE = 1</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The returned value is the size, in bytes, of the field. For bit-fields,
+this is the size in bytes of the containing word.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>FIELD_EXISTENCE = 2</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The returned value is 1 if the field exists, 0 otherwise. Always 1 at
+compile time.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>FIELD_SIGNEDNESS = 3</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The returned value is 1 if the field is signed, 0 otherwise.
+</p>
+</dd>
+<dt><code>FIELD_LSHIFT_U64 = 4</code></dt>
+<dt><code>FIELD_RSHIFT_U64 = 5</code></dt>
+<dd><p>The returned value is the number of bits of left- or right-shifting
+(respectively) needed in order to recover the original value of the field,
+after it has been loaded by a read of <code>FIELD_BYTE_SIZE</code> bytes into an
+unsigned 64-bit value. Primarily useful for reading bit-field values
+from structures that may change between kernel versions.
+</p>
+</dd>
+</dl>
+
+<p>Note that the return value is a constant which is known at
+compile time. If the field has a variable offset then
+<code>FIELD_BYTE_OFFSET</code>, <code>FIELD_LSHIFT_U64</code>,
+and <code>FIELD_RSHIFT_U64</code> are not supported.
+Similarly, if the field has a variable size then
+<code>FIELD_BYTE_SIZE</code>, <code>FIELD_LSHIFT_U64</code>,
+and <code>FIELD_RSHIFT_U64</code> are not supported.
+</p>
+<p>For example, <code>__builtin_preserve_field_info</code> can be used to reliably
+extract bit-field values from a structure that may change between
+kernel versions:
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">struct S
+{
+ short a;
+ int x:7;
+ int y:5;
+};
+
+int
+read_y (struct S *arg)
+{
+ unsigned long long val;
+ unsigned int offset
+ = __builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_BYTE_OFFSET);
+ unsigned int size
+ = __builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_BYTE_SIZE);
+
+ /* Read size bytes from arg + offset into val. */
+ bpf_probe_read (&amp;val, size, arg + offset);
+
+ val &lt;&lt;= __builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_LSHIFT_U64);
+
+ if (__builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_SIGNEDNESS))
+ val = ((long long) val
+ &gt;&gt; __builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_RSHIFT_U64));
+ else
+ val &gt;&gt;= __builtin_preserve_field_info (arg-&gt;y, FIELD_RSHIFT_U64);
+
+ return val;
+}
