π uint8_t next_proto
This is your IPv4 or IPv6 or next layer header, aka: what comes next in the chain, so you know where you're headed after the trailer. She's literally the "next stop" sign on the bus π

Generated automatically by Doxygen for DPDK from the source code. Not me hand-crafting lore, not a human typing with her little paws β it's the machine doing its thing, and we respect the automation. π€β¨ periodt.
heads up bestie: this whole page is auto-generated from the source, so if the code changes, the docs change too. Thepad_lenandnext_protofields are the entire show here β that's the tea. π
and that's a wrap, angel π This little gem ships with DPDK, Version 25.11.3, and she's officially titled rte_esp_tail(3) β go forth and parse those ESP trailers, you absolute legend π«Άπ§
