print it as a decimal, with %d, I get an "8". Depending on the option, this value changes, form "8", to "0", to "22528",
 depending on the option that I use. Where can I find documentation about what to expect on the socketOption?

For the ones that are simple enable / disable:

SO_USELOOPBACK:
SO_DONTROUTE:
SO_DEBUG:
SO_KEEPALIVE:
SO_REUSEADDR:
SO_REUSEPORT:
SO_BROADCAST:
SO_OOBINLINE:
SO_TIMESTAMP:
SO_ACCEPTCONN:

The optval will be 0 if not set and non zero if set.
