DNSJIT.CORE.OBJECT.LINUXSLL(3)

💖 dnsjit.core.object.linuxsll(3) — Library Functions Manual 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because today we're learning about dnsjit.core.object.linuxsll — the Linux cooked-mode capture (SLL) part of a packet, and honestly? she's iconic. this is section 3 of the manual, library functions, so you already know we're in the weeds and we're thriving 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

dnsjit.core.object.linuxsll — the Linux cooked-mode capture (SLL) part of a packet. that's her. that's the whole vibe 🦋

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so like. this is the SLL part of a packet. it's the piece that you'll usually find chillin' in the object chain after parsing with, for example, Layer filter. iykyk 💅

---

🎀 Attributes 🎀

these are the fields, and no cap, you need every single one:

• packet_type — the packet type. that's it, that's the assignment ✨
• arp_hardware — the link-layer device type. (yes the name says arp, no i'm not going to explain the lore, just write it down fr fr)
• link_layer_address_length — the length of the link-layer address. it's giving "measure twice" 📏
• link_layer_address — the link-layer address itself. the main character, lowkey 👑
• ether_type — an Ethernet protocol type. say hi 🫶

---

🧚 Functions 🧚

every one of these, no skipping, periodt:

• Linuxsll:type() — return the textual type of the object. words, not vibes 💬
• Linuxsll:prev() — return the previous object. going back in time, back in time 🕰️
• Linuxsll:cast() — cast the object to the underlining object module and return it. glow-up but make it types 🔥
• Linuxsll:uncast() — cast the object to the generic object module and return it. reverse glow-up, still valid 💜
• Linuxsll:copy() — make a copy of the object and return it. twin energy 👯
• Linuxsll:free() — free the object. should only be used on copies or otherwise allocated. okay this is the serious one bestie — do NOT go freeing stuff that isn't yours, that's how you get undefined behaviour and a very bad day 😭🙈
