+ * struct sockopt - socket option value container
+ * @iter_in: iov_iter for reading optval with the content from the caller.
+ * Use copy_from_iter() given this iov direction is ITER_SOURCE
+ * @iter_out: iov_iter for protocols to update optval data to userspace
+ * Use _copy_to_iter() given iov direction is ITER_DEST
+ * @optlen: serves as both input (buffer size) and output (returned data size).
+ *
+ * Type-safe wrapper for socket option data that works with both
+ * user and kernel buffers.
+ *
+ * The optlen field allows callbacks to return a specific length value
+ * independent of the bytes written via copy_to_iter().
