RTE_TABLE_ACTION_ENCAP_PARAMS(3)

✨ NAME ✨

rte_table_action_encap_params — bestie, this is the struct that holds your encap action params, one set per table rule 💖

It lives in the DPDK library functions manual, and it's genuinely just a little container of vibes: you pick a type, and then one of a bunch of nested structs becomes the valid one. Which one? Depends on the type, babe. We'll get there 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Pull it in like this, no cap:

#include <rte_table_action.h>

🎀 Data Fields 🎀

enum rte_table_action_encap_type type

That's the headline field, and yeah — the rest of the struct is basically "which of these is real depends on type" energy. Main character energy, honestly 👑

---

🌸 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 🌸

Encap action parameters, scoped per table rule. Periodt. That's the whole deal — every table rule that does an encap action gets its own lil bundle of params, and this struct is the bundle 🎀

Definition at line 544 of file rte_table_action.h. (Yes bestie, we cite our sources ✨)

💅 FIELD DOCUMENTATION 💅

💜 enum rte_table_action_encap_type type

Encapsulation type. This is the field that decides which of the structs below is even valid — so like, read this one first, okay? It's giving "choose your own adventure" 🌈

Definition at line 546 of file rte_table_action.h.

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_ether_params ether

Only valid when type is set to Ether. Not the moment otherwise, sweetie 💀

Definition at line 550 of file rte_table_action.h.

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_vlan_params vlan

Only valid when type is set to VLAN. Set your type correctly or this is just decoration, ngl 🙈

Definition at line 553 of file rte_table_action.h.

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_qinq_params qinq

Only valid when type is set to QinQ. Double the tag, double the drama 💅

Definition at line 556 of file rte_table_action.h.

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_mpls_params mpls

Only valid when type is set to MPLS. Labels on labels, we love a stacked situation 🎀

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_pppoe_params pppoe

🦋 struct rte_table_action_encap_vxlan_params vxlan

Definition at line 565 of file rte_table_action.h.

🦋 struct rte_table_encap_ether_qinq_pppoe qinq_pppoe

Only valid when type is set to QinQ_PPPoE. And yes — the struct type here is literally spelled rte_table_encap_ether_qinq_pppoe, not ..._encap_qinq_pppoe_params. That's not me being cutesy, that's the actual name. Copy it exactly or the compiler will simply end you 😭
