Function Documentation

static int rte_is_aligned ( void *  ptr,
unsigned  align 
)
inlinestatic

Checks if a pointer is aligned to a given power-of-two value

Parameters
ptrThe pointer whose alignment is to be checked
alignThe power-of-two value to which the ptr should be aligned
Returns
True(1) where the pointer is correctly aligned, false(0) otherwise

Definition at line 193 of file rte_common.h.

static int rte_is_power_of_2 ( uint32_t  n)
inlinestatic

Returns true if n is a power of 2

Parameters
nNumber to check
Returns
1 if true, 0 otherwise

Definition at line 223 of file rte_common.h.

static uint32_t rte_align32pow2 ( uint32_t  x)
inlinestatic

Aligns input parameter to the next power of 2

Parameters
xThe integer value to algin
Returns
Input parameter aligned to the next power of 2
Examples:
examples/netmap_compat/lib/compat_netmap.c.

Definition at line 238 of file rte_common.h.

static uint64_t rte_align64pow2 ( uint64_t  v)
inlinestatic

Aligns 64b input parameter to the next power of 2

Parameters
vThe 64b value to align
Returns
Input parameter aligned to the next power of 2

Definition at line 260 of file rte_common.h.

static uint32_t rte_bsf32 ( uint32_t  v)
inlinestatic

Searches the input parameter for the least significant set bit (starting from zero). If a least significant 1 bit is found, its bit index is returned. If the content of the input parameter is zero, then the content of the return value is undefined.

Parameters
vinput parameter, should not be zero.
Returns
least significant set bit in the input parameter.

Definition at line 324 of file rte_common.h.

static uint64_t rte_str_to_size ( const char *  str)
inlinestatic

Converts a numeric string to the equivalent uint64_t value. As well as straight number conversion, also recognises the suffixes k, m and g for kilobytes, megabytes and gigabytes respectively.

If a negative number is passed in i.e. a string with the first non-black character being "-", zero is returned. Zero is also returned in the case of an error with the strtoull call in the function.

Parameters
strString containing number to convert.
Returns
Number.

Definition at line 389 of file rte_common.h.

void rte_exit ( int  exit_code,
const char *  format,
  ... 
)

Function to terminate the application immediately, printing an error message and returning the exit_code back to the shell.

This function never returns

Parameters
exit_codeThe exit code to be returned by the application
formatThe format string to be used for printing the message. This can include printf format characters which will be expanded using any further parameters to the function.
