rte_flow_restore_info(3)

πŸ’– rte_flow_restore_info πŸ’–

okay bestie, gather round, because this is a page from the rte_flow_restore_info(3) manual (section 3, Library Functions Manual, DPDK girlies) and it's honestly kinda iconic. it's a struct. it's a vibe. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

rte_flow_restore_info β€” literally just the name, that's the whole section, and honestly? she ate πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_flow.h>

🌸 Data Fields 🌸

here's the roster, the main characters of this struct:

  • uint64_t flags
  • uint32_t group_id
  • struct rte_flow_tunnel tunnel

✨ DETAILED DESCRIPTION ✨

so the whole point of this structure, bestie, is to be the restore information structure β€” it's how you communicate the current packet processing state when some of the processing pipeline is done in hardware and should continue in software. like, hardware did its part, now software picks up the baton. teamwork, no cap 🀝

✨ FIELD DOCUMENTATION ✨

🌈 uint64_t flags

Bitwise flags (RTE_FLOW_RESTORE_INFO_*) that indicate the validation of the other fields in struct rte_flow_restore_info. yep, she's the bouncer at the door β€” she decides which of the other fields actually get checked πŸ”₯

🌈 uint32_t group_id

Group ID where packed missed.
