Detailed Description

This file contains definition of RTE mbuf structure itself, packet offload flags and some related macros. For majority of DPDK entities, it is not recommended to include this file directly, use include <rte_mbuf.h> instead.

New fields and flags should fit in the "dynamic space".

Mask of bits used to determine the status of RX IP checksum.

RTE_MBUF_F_RX_IP_CKSUM_UNKNOWN: no information about the RX IP checksum
RTE_MBUF_F_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD: the IP checksum in the packet is wrong
RTE_MBUF_F_RX_IP_CKSUM_GOOD: the IP checksum in the packet is valid
RTE_MBUF_F_RX_IP_CKSUM_NONE: the IP checksum is not correct in the packet data, but the integrity of the IP header is verified.

The outer VLAN has been stripped by the hardware and its TCI is saved in mbuf->vlan_tci_outer. This can only happen if VLAN stripping is enabled in the Rx configuration of the PMD. When RTE_MBUF_F_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED is set, the flags RTE_MBUF_F_RX_VLAN and RTE_MBUF_F_RX_QINQ must also be set.

If both RTE_MBUF_F_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED and RTE_MBUF_F_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED are set, the 2 VLANs have been stripped by the hardware and their TCIs are saved in mbuf->vlan_tci (inner) and mbuf->vlan_tci_outer (outer).

If a mbuf has its data in another mbuf and references it by mbuf indirection, this mbuf can be defined as a cloned mbuf.

Definition at line 694 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ RTE_MBUF_HAS_EXTBUF

#define RTE_MBUF_HAS_EXTBUF ( mb ) ((mb)->ol_flags & RTE_MBUF_F_EXTERNAL)

Returns TRUE if given mbuf has an external buffer, or FALSE otherwise.

External buffer is a user-provided anonymous buffer.

Definition at line 701 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ RTE_MBUF_DIRECT

#define RTE_MBUF_DIRECT ( mb ) (!((mb)->ol_flags & (RTE_MBUF_F_INDIRECT | RTE_MBUF_F_EXTERNAL)))

Returns TRUE if given mbuf is direct, or FALSE otherwise.

If a mbuf embeds its own data after the rte_mbuf structure, this mbuf can be defined as a direct mbuf.

Definition at line 709 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ RTE_MBUF_PORT_INVALID

#define RTE_MBUF_PORT_INVALID UINT16_MAX

Uninitialized or unspecified port.

Definition at line 713 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ MBUF_INVALID_PORT

#define MBUF_INVALID_PORT RTE_MBUF_PORT_INVALID

For backwards compatibility.

Definition at line 715 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ rte_pktmbuf_mtod_offset

#define rte_pktmbuf_mtod_offset	(	m,
		t,
		o
	)	((t)(void )((char )(m)->buf_addr + (m)->data_off + (o)))

A macro that points to an offset into the data in the mbuf.

The returned pointer is cast to type t. Before using this function, the user must ensure that the first segment is large enough to accommodate its data.

Parameters

m	The packet mbuf.
o	The offset into the mbuf data.
t	The type to cast the result into.

Examples: examples/bbdev_app/main.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/esp.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec_process.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec_worker.c, examples/l3fwd-power/main.c, examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_acl.c, examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_lpm.c, examples/ptpclient/ptpclient.c, examples/server_node_efd/node/node.c, examples/server_node_efd/server/main.c, examples/vhost/main.c, and examples/vhost/virtio_net.c.

◆ rte_pktmbuf_mtod

#define rte_pktmbuf_mtod	(	m,
		t
	)	rte_pktmbuf_mtod_offset(m, t, 0)

A macro that points to the start of the data in the mbuf.

The returned pointer is cast to type t. Before using this function, the user must ensure that the first segment is large enough to accommodate its data.

Parameters

m	The packet mbuf.
t	The type to cast the result into.

Examples: examples/bbdev_app/main.c, examples/bond/main.c, examples/bpf/t3.c, examples/dma/dmafwd.c, examples/ethtool/ethtool-app/main.c, examples/fips_validation/main.c, examples/flow_filtering/main.c, examples/ip_fragmentation/main.c, examples/ip_reassembly/main.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/esp.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec_worker.c, examples/ipv4_multicast/main.c, examples/l2fwd-crypto/main.c, examples/l2fwd-event/l2fwd_event.c, examples/l2fwd-event/l2fwd_poll.c, examples/l2fwd-jobstats/main.c, examples/l2fwd-keepalive/main.c, examples/l2fwd/main.c, examples/l3fwd-power/main.c, examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_em.c, examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_fib.c, examples/l3fwd/l3fwd_lpm.c, examples/link_status_interrupt/main.c, examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c, examples/ptpclient/ptpclient.c, examples/qos_meter/main.c, examples/qos_sched/app_thread.c, examples/vhost/main.c, examples/vmdq/main.c, and examples/vmdq_dcb/main.c.

◆ rte_pktmbuf_iova_offset

#define rte_pktmbuf_iova_offset	(	m,
		o
	)	(rte_iova_t)(rte_mbuf_iova_get(m) + (m)->data_off + (o))

A macro that returns the IO address that points to an offset of the start of the data in the mbuf

Parameters

m	The packet mbuf.
o	The offset into the data to calculate address from.

Examples: examples/fips_validation/fips_dev_self_test.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/esp.c, and examples/l2fwd-crypto/main.c.

Definition at line 757 of file rte_mbuf_core.h.

◆ rte_pktmbuf_iova

#define rte_pktmbuf_iova ( m ) rte_pktmbuf_iova_offset(m, 0)

A macro that returns the IO address that points to the start of the data in the mbuf

Parameters

m	The packet mbuf.

Examples: examples/dma/dmafwd.c.
