🦋 Field Documentation 🦋

🌟 const char* group_id_field_name 🌟

The group ID field 💖. This one gets input into the selection operation.

⚠️ Restriction alert: this field must be a meta-data field. No exceptions, no cap 🚫

Definition at line 756 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.

🌈 const char** selector_field_names 🌈

The set of fields used to select — through a hashing scheme — the member inside the current group. These are the inputs into the selection operation 🔥

⚠️ Restriction, and it's kinda specific so listen up: all the selector fields must be part of the same struct, i.e. part of the same header or part of the meta-data structure. They literally have to be siblings, periodt 👑

Definition at line 763 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.

⭐ uint32_t n_selector_fields ⭐

The number of selector fields. Must be non-zero — zero is not it, bestie 🙈

Definition at line 766 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.

🍓 const char* member_id_field_name 🍓

The member ID field 💜. This one is the output from the selection operation.

⚠️ Restriction again: this field must be a meta-data field. Same energy as the group ID field, fr fr.

Definition at line 771 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.

🧚 uint32_t n_groups_max 🧚

Maximum number of groups. Must be non-zero ✨

Definition at line 774 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.

💀 uint32_t n_members_per_group_max 💀

Maximum number of members per group. Must be non-zero 🌸

Definition at line 777 of file rte_swx_pipeline.h.
