+ * Description
+ * This helper is similar to **bpf_skb_load_bytes**\ () in that
+ * it provides an easy way to load *len* bytes from *offset*
+ * from the packet associated to *skb*, into the buffer pointed
+ * by *to*. The difference to **bpf_skb_load_bytes**\ () is that
+ * a fifth argument *start_header* exists in order to select a
+ * base offset to start from. *start_header* can be one of:
+ *
+ * **BPF_HDR_START_MAC**
+ * Base offset to load data from is *skb*'s mac header.
+ * **BPF_HDR_START_NET**
+ * Base offset to load data from is *skb*'s network header.
+ *
+ * In general, "direct packet access" is the preferred method to
+ * access packet data, however, this helper is in particular useful
+ * in socket filters where *skb*\ **->data** does not always point
+ * to the start of the mac header and where "direct packet access"
+ * is not available.
+ *
+ * Return
+ * 0 on success, or a negative error in case of failure.
