I don't think so. And the above "h4" has showed how we search for more
than one type.

The generic userland code for next search is:

/* this is in essence the same as how we advance key in kernel code */
if (sk->min_offset < (u64)-1 && sk->min_offset < sk->max_offset)
	sk->min_offset++;
else if (sk->min_type < (u8)-1 && sk->min_type < sk->max_type) {
	sk->min_offset = 0;
	sk->min_type++;
} else if (sk->min_objectid < (u64)-1 && sk->min_objectid < sk->max_objectid){
	sk->min_offset = 0;
	sk->min_type = 0;
	sk->min_objectid++;
} else
	break;

ioctl(...);

for (i = 0; i < nr_items; i++) {
	if (!filter(items[i]))
		continue;
	/* process this item */
	...
}
