okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for rte_flow_item_flex_link — a lil' DPDK library function page straight out of the flow headers, and honestly? she's giving very niche, very powerful, very "if you know you know". 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

rte_flow_item_flex_link — like, the struct itself. that's her. that's the name. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <rte_flow.h>

🎀 Data Fields 🎀

struct rte_flow_item item
uint32_t next

two fields. that's it. tiny struct, big responsibilities. 🫶

👑 Detailed Description 👑

Warning ⚠️ EXPERIMENTAL: this structure may change without prior notice

so like… bestie… she's experimental. she's still figuring herself out. do not get attached to the exact shape of this struct, because it can change on you with zero heads-up. no cap. 💀

🧚 Field Documentation 🧚

💜 struct rte_flow_item item

Preceding/following header. The item type must be always provided — like, always always, no skipping, that's non-negotiable, periodt. 🎀

And for the preceding one, the item must specify the header value/mask to match for the link be taken and start the flex item header parsing. so you're telling it "hey, match this, and then we start parsing the flex item header". slay.

⭐ uint32_t next

Next field value to match to continue with one of the configured next protocols.

so once you've matched, this is the value that says "okay keep going, but down this path" — one of the next protocols you already configured. main character energy, honestly. 👑

Generated automatically by Doxygen for DPDK from the source code. so nobody hand-wrote this, she was born from the source itself. iconic. 💅

mwah 💋 that's the whole page, bestie — DPDK, Version 25.11.3, out here doing the absolute most for flow parsing. go forth and match some headers. 🫶✨🌸
