Research direction

Start by reviewing the four requested helpers in issue #727 and the dependency issues #273 and #297. Confirm what those dependencies provide before implementing bpf_ringbuf_reserve, bpf_ringbuf_submit, bpf_ringbuf_discard, and bpf_ringbuf_query; done means all four are implemented and their behavior is validated.
