All four can be read with <code>getsockopt()</code> calls to a socket and in order to restore them the <code>TCP_REPAIR_OPTIONS</code> sockoption is introduced.

== Timestamp ==
"The sender's timestamp clock is used as a source of monotonic non-decreasing values to stamp the segments"(rfc7323). The Linux kernel uses the jiffies counter as the tcp timestamp.
#define tcp_time_stamp ((__u32)(jiffies))
We add the TCP_TIMESTAMP options to be able to compensate a difference between jiffies counters, when a connection is migrated on another host. When a connection is dumped, criu calls getsockopt(TCP_TIMESTAMP) to get a current timestamp, then on restore it calls setsockopt(TCP_TIMESTAMP) to set this timestamp as a starting point.
