rte_rib_get_nxt() flags

Enumerator

RTE_RIB_GET_NXT_ALL

flag to get all subroutes in a RIB tree

RTE_RIB_GET_NXT_COVER

flag to get first matched subroutes in a RIB tree

Definition at line 28 of file rte_rib.h.

Get an IPv4 mask from prefix length It is caller responsibility to make sure depth is not bigger than 32

Parameters

depth prefix length

Returns

IPv4 mask

Definition at line 60 of file rte_rib.h.

Lookup an IP into the RIB structure

Parameters

rib RIB object handle
ip IP to be looked up in the RIB

Returns

pointer to struct rte_rib_node on success NULL otherwise

Lookup less specific route into the RIB structure

Parameters

ent Pointer to struct rte_rib_node that represents target route

Returns

pointer to struct rte_rib_node that represents less specific route on success NULL otherwise

Lookup prefix into the RIB structure

Parameters

rib RIB object handle
ip net to be looked up in the RIB
depth prefix length

Returns

pointer to struct rte_rib_node on success NULL otherwise

Retrieve next more specific prefix from the RIB that is covered by ip/depth supernet in an ascending order

Parameters

rib RIB object handle
ip net address of supernet prefix that covers returned more specific prefixes
depth supernet prefix length
last pointer to the last returned prefix to get next prefix or NULL to get first more specific prefix
flag -RTE_RIB_GET_NXT_ALL get all prefixes from subtrie -RTE_RIB_GET_NXT_COVER get only first more specific prefix even if it have more specifics

Returns

pointer to the next more specific prefix NULL if there is no prefixes left

Remove prefix from the RIB

Parameters

rib RIB object handle
ip net to be removed from the RIB
depth prefix length

Insert prefix into the RIB

Parameters

rib RIB object handle
ip net to be inserted to the RIB
depth prefix length

Returns

pointer to new rte_rib_node on success NULL otherwise

Get an ip from rte_rib_node

Parameters

node pointer to the rib node
ip pointer to the ip to save

Returns

Get a depth from rte_rib_node

Parameters

node pointer to the rib node
depth pointer to the depth to save

Returns

Get ext field from the rib node It is caller responsibility to make sure there are necessary space for the ext field inside rib node.

Parameters

node pointer to the rib node

Returns

pointer to the ext

Get nexthop from the rib node

Parameters

node pointer to the rib node
nh pointer to the nexthop to save

Returns

Set nexthop into the rib node

Parameters

node pointer to the rib node
nh nexthop value to set to the rib node

Returns

Create RIB

Parameters

name RIB name
socket_id NUMA socket ID for RIB table memory allocation
conf Structure containing the configuration

Returns

Handle to RIB object on success NULL otherwise with rte_errno indicating reason for failure.

Find an existing RIB object and return a pointer to it.

Parameters

name Name of the rib object as passed to rte_rib_create()

Returns

Pointer to RIB object on success NULL otherwise with rte_errno indicating reason for failure.

Free an RIB object.

Parameters

rib RIB object handle created with rte_rib_create(). If rib is NULL, no operation is performed.
