✨ NAME ✨

rte_flow_item_icmp6_nd_opt — bestie, it's a whole struct 💖

(and yes, this is section 3 of the Library Functions Manual, we're in the library-functions girlies now 🫶)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so first things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <rte_flow.h>

🎀 Data Fields

  • uint8_t type
  • uint8_t length

that's it. two little fields. tiny. iconic. 💅

🦋 Detailed Description 🦋

RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_ICMP6_ND_OPT

so what does it actually do? it matches the presence of any ICMPv6 neighbor discovery option. that's the entire vibe check: is there an ND option here or not. no cap. ⭐

Now — lowkey important — this thing is normally preceded by one of these besties:

  • RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_ICMP6_ND_NA
  • RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_ICMP6_ND_NS
  • RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_ICMP6_ND_OPT

like, it usually rolls in after one of them. main character never arrives alone, periodt. 💜

fr fr, it's defined at line 1548 of rte_flow.h, so if you wanna go look at it with your own two eyes, you know exactly where to find her. ✨
