Detailed Description

RTE Mbuf

The mbuf library provides the ability to create and destroy buffers that may be used by the RTE application to store message buffers. The message buffers are stored in a mempool, using the RTE mempool library.

The preferred way to create a mbuf pool is to use rte_pktmbuf_pool_create(). However, in some situations, an application may want to have more control (ex: populate the pool with specific memory), in this case it is possible to use functions from rte_mempool. See how rte_pktmbuf_pool_create() is implemented for details.

This library provides an API to allocate/free packet mbufs, which are used to carry network packets.

To understand the concepts of packet buffers or mbufs, you should read "TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2: The Implementation, Addison-Wesley, 1995, ISBN 0-201-63354-X from Richard Stevens" http://www.kohala.com/start/tcpipiv2.html

Macro Definition Documentation

#define RTE_PKTMBUF_POOL_F_PINNED_EXT_BUF   (1 << 0)

When set, pktmbuf mempool will hold only mbufs with pinned external buffer. The external buffer will be attached to the mbuf at the memory pool creation and will never be detached by the mbuf free calls. mbuf should not contain any room for data after the mbuf structure.

Definition at line 332 of file rte_mbuf.h.

#define RTE_MBUF_HAS_PINNED_EXTBUF

(

mb

)

(rte_pktmbuf_priv_flags(mb->pool) & RTE_PKTMBUF_POOL_F_PINNED_EXT_BUF)

Returns non zero if given mbuf has a pinned external buffer, or zero otherwise. The pinned external buffer is allocated at pool creation time and should not be freed on mbuf freeing.

External buffer is a user-provided anonymous buffer.

static void rte_mbuf_prefetch_part1 ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

inlinestatic

Prefetch the first part of the mbuf

The first 64 bytes of the mbuf corresponds to fields that are used early in the receive path. If the cache line of the architecture is higher than 64B, the second part will also be prefetched.

Parameters

m	The pointer to the mbuf.

Definition at line 112 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static void rte_mbuf_prefetch_part2 ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

inlinestatic

Prefetch the second part of the mbuf

The next 64 bytes of the mbuf corresponds to fields that are used in the transmit path. If the cache line of the architecture is higher than 64B, this function does nothing as it is expected that the full mbuf is already in cache.

Parameters

m	The pointer to the mbuf.

Examples:

examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c.

Definition at line 129 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static uint16_t rte_pktmbuf_priv_size ( struct rte_mempool *  mp )

inlinestatic

Get the application private size of mbufs stored in a pktmbuf_pool

The private size of mbuf is a zone located between the rte_mbuf structure and the data buffer where an application can store data associated to a packet.

Parameters

mp	The packet mbuf pool.

Returns

The private size of mbufs stored in this mempool.

Definition at line 830 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static rte_iova_t rte_mbuf_data_iova ( const struct rte_mbuf *  mb )

inlinestatic

Return the IO address of the beginning of the mbuf data

Parameters

mb	The pointer to the mbuf.

Returns

The IO address of the beginning of the mbuf data

Definition at line 150 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static rte_iova_t rte_mbuf_data_iova_default ( const struct rte_mbuf *  mb )

inlinestatic

Return the default IO address of the beginning of the mbuf data

This function is used by drivers in their receive function, as it returns the location where data should be written by the NIC, taking the default headroom in account.

Parameters

mb	The pointer to the mbuf.

Returns

The IO address of the beginning of the mbuf data

Definition at line 175 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static struct rte_mbuf* rte_mbuf_from_indirect ( struct rte_mbuf *  mi )

static

Return the mbuf owning the data buffer address of an indirect mbuf.

Parameters

mi	The pointer to the indirect mbuf.

Returns

The address of the direct mbuf corresponding to buffer_addr.

Definition at line 196 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static __rte_experimental char* rte_mbuf_buf_addr ( struct rte_mbuf *  mb, struct rte_mempool *  mp  )

inlinestatic

Return address of buffer embedded in the given mbuf.

The return value shall be same as mb->buf_addr if the mbuf is already initialized and direct. However, this API is useful if mempool of the mbuf is already known because it doesn't need to access mbuf contents in order to get the mempool pointer.

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: This API may change without prior notice. This will be used by rte_mbuf_to_baddr() which has redundant code once experimental tag is removed.

Parameters

mb	The pointer to the mbuf.
mp	The pointer to the mempool of the mbuf.

Returns

The pointer of the mbuf buffer.

Definition at line 223 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static __rte_experimental char* rte_mbuf_data_addr_default ( __rte_unused struct rte_mbuf *  mb )

inlinestatic

Return the default address of the beginning of the mbuf data.

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: This API may change without prior notice.

Parameters

mb	The pointer to the mbuf.

Returns

The pointer of the beginning of the mbuf data.

Definition at line 241 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static char* rte_mbuf_to_baddr ( struct rte_mbuf *  md )

inlinestatic

Return address of buffer embedded in the given mbuf.

Note

: Accessing mempool pointer of a mbuf is expensive because the pointer is stored in the 2nd cache line of mbuf. If mempool is known, it is better not to reference the mempool pointer in mbuf but calling rte_mbuf_buf_addr() would be more efficient.

Parameters

md	The pointer to the mbuf.

Returns

The address of the data buffer owned by the mbuf.

Definition at line 267 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static __rte_experimental void* rte_mbuf_to_priv ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

inlinestatic

Return the starting address of the private data area embedded in the given mbuf.

Note that no check is made to ensure that a private data area actually exists in the supplied mbuf.

Parameters

m	The pointer to the mbuf.

Returns

The starting address of the private data area of the given mbuf.

Definition at line 292 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static uint32_t rte_pktmbuf_priv_flags ( struct rte_mempool *  mp )

inlinestatic

Return the flags from private data in an mempool structure.

Parameters

mp	A pointer to the mempool structure.

static void rte_mbuf_refcnt_set ( struct rte_mbuf *  m, uint16_t  new_value  )

inlinestatic

Sets an mbuf's refcnt to the defined value.

Definition at line 451 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static uint16_t rte_mbuf_ext_refcnt_read ( const struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info *  shinfo )

inlinestatic

Reads the refcnt of an external buffer.

Parameters

shinfo

Shared data of the external buffer.

Returns

Reference count number.

Definition at line 467 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static void rte_mbuf_ext_refcnt_set ( struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info *  shinfo, uint16_t  new_value  )

void rte_mbuf_sanity_check	(	const struct rte_mbuf *	m,
		int	is_header
	)

Sanity checks on an mbuf.

Check the consistency of the given mbuf. The function will cause a panic if corruption is detected.

Parameters

m	The mbuf to be checked.
is_header	True if the mbuf is a packet header, false if it is a sub-segment of a packet (in this case, some fields like nb_segs are not checked)

__rte_experimental int rte_mbuf_check	(	const struct rte_mbuf *	m,
		int	is_header,
		const char **	reason
	)

Sanity checks on a mbuf.

Almost like rte_mbuf_sanity_check(), but this function gives the reason if corruption is detected rather than panic.

Parameters

m	The mbuf to be checked.
is_header	True if the mbuf is a packet header, false if it is a sub-segment of a packet (in this case, some fields like nb_segs are not checked)
reason	A reference to a string pointer where to store the reason why a mbuf is considered invalid.

Returns

• 0 if no issue has been found, reason is left untouched.
• -1 if a problem is detected, reason then points to a string describing the reason why the mbuf is deemed invalid.

static struct rte_mbuf* rte_mbuf_raw_alloc ( struct rte_mempool *  mp )

static

Allocate an uninitialized mbuf from mempool mp.

This function can be used by PMDs (especially in RX functions) to allocate an uninitialized mbuf. The driver is responsible of initializing all the required fields. See rte_pktmbuf_reset(). For standard needs, prefer rte_pktmbuf_alloc().

The caller can expect that the following fields of the mbuf structure are initialized: buf_addr, buf_iova, buf_len, refcnt=1, nb_segs=1, next=NULL, pool, priv_size. The other fields must be initialized by the caller.

Parameters

mp	The mempool from which mbuf is allocated.

Returns

• The pointer to the new mbuf on success.
• NULL if allocation failed.

Examples:

examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.

Definition at line 582 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static __rte_always_inline void rte_mbuf_raw_free ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

static

Put mbuf back into its original mempool.

The caller must ensure that the mbuf is direct and properly reinitialized (refcnt=1, next=NULL, nb_segs=1), as done by rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg().

This function should be used with care, when optimization is required. For standard needs, prefer rte_pktmbuf_free() or rte_pktmbuf_free_seg().

Parameters

m	The mbuf to be freed.

Definition at line 607 of file rte_mbuf.h.

void rte_pktmbuf_init	(	struct rte_mempool *	mp,
		void *	opaque_arg,
		void *	m,
		unsigned	i
	)

The packet mbuf constructor.

This function initializes some fields in the mbuf structure that are not modified by the user once created (origin pool, buffer start address, and so on). This function is given as a callback function to rte_mempool_obj_iter() or rte_mempool_create() at pool creation time.

Parameters

mp	The mempool from which mbufs originate.
opaque_arg	A pointer that can be used by the user to retrieve useful information for mbuf initialization. This pointer is the opaque argument passed to rte_mempool_obj_iter() or rte_mempool_create().
m	The mbuf to initialize.
i	The index of the mbuf in the pool table.

Examples:

examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.

void rte_pktmbuf_pool_init	(	struct rte_mempool *	mp,
		void *	opaque_arg
	)

A packet mbuf pool constructor.

This function initializes the mempool private data in the case of a pktmbuf pool. This private data is needed by the driver. The function must be called on the mempool before it is used, or it can be given as a callback function to rte_mempool_create() at pool creation. It can be extended by the user, for example, to provide another packet size.

Parameters

mp	The mempool from which mbufs originate.
opaque_arg	A pointer that can be used by the user to retrieve useful information for mbuf initialization. This pointer is the opaque argument passed to rte_mempool_create().

Examples:

examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.

struct rte_mempool* rte_pktmbuf_pool_create	(	const char *	name,
		unsigned	n,
		unsigned	cache_size,
		uint16_t	priv_size,
		uint16_t	data_room_size,
		int	socket_id
	)

Create a mbuf pool.

This function creates and initializes a packet mbuf pool. It is a wrapper to rte_mempool functions.

Parameters

name	The name of the mbuf pool.
n	The number of elements in the mbuf pool. The optimum size (in terms of memory usage) for a mempool is when n is a power of two minus one: n = (2^q - 1).
cache_size	Size of the per-core object cache. See rte_mempool_create() for details.
priv_size	Size of application private are between the rte_mbuf structure and the data buffer. This value must be aligned to RTE_MBUF_PRIV_ALIGN.
data_room_size	Size of data buffer in each mbuf, including RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM.
socket_id	The socket identifier where the memory should be allocated. The value can be SOCKET_ID_ANY if there is no NUMA constraint for the reserved zone.

Returns

The pointer to the new allocated mempool, on success. NULL on error with rte_errno set appropriately. Possible rte_errno values include:

• E_RTE_NO_CONFIG - function could not get pointer to rte_config structure
• E_RTE_SECONDARY - function was called from a secondary process instance
• EINVAL - cache size provided is too large, or priv_size is not aligned.
• ENOSPC - the maximum number of memzones has already been allocated
• EEXIST - a memzone with the same name already exists

Definition at line 846 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static struct rte_mbuf* rte_pktmbuf_alloc ( struct rte_mempool *  mp )

static

Allocate a new mbuf from a mempool.

This new mbuf contains one segment, which has a length of 0. The pointer to data is initialized to have some bytes of headroom in the buffer (if buffer size allows).

Parameters

mp	The mempool from which the mbuf is allocated.

Returns

• The pointer to the new mbuf on success.
• NULL if allocation failed.

Examples:

examples/bond/main.c, examples/fips_validation/fips_dev_self_test.c, examples/fips_validation/main.c, examples/ipv4_multicast/main.c, examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c, examples/ptpclient/ptpclient.c, and examples/vhost/virtio_net.c.

static int rte_pktmbuf_alloc_bulk ( struct rte_mempool *  pool, struct rte_mbuf **  mbufs, unsigned  count  )

inlinestatic

Allocate a bulk of mbufs, initialize refcnt and reset the fields to default values.

Parameters

pool	The mempool from which mbufs are allocated.
mbufs	Array of pointers to mbufs
count	Array size

Returns

• 0: Success
• -ENOENT: Not enough entries in the mempool; no mbufs are retrieved.

Definition at line 915 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info* rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper ( void *  buf_addr, uint16_t *  buf_len, rte_mbuf_extbuf_free_callback_t  free_cb, void *  fcb_opaque  )

static

Initialize shared data at the end of an external buffer before attaching to a mbuf by rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(). This is not a mandatory initialization but a helper function to simply spare a few bytes at the end of the buffer for shared data. If shared data is allocated separately, this should not be called but application has to properly initialize the shared data according to its need.

Free callback and its argument is saved and the refcnt is set to 1.

Warning

The value of buf_len will be reduced to RTE_PTR_DIFF(shinfo, buf_addr) after this initialization. This shall be used for rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf()

Parameters

	buf_addr	The pointer to the external buffer.
[in,out]	buf_len	The pointer to length of the external buffer. Input value must be larger than the size of struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info and padding for alignment. If not enough, this function will return NULL. Adjusted buffer length will be returned through this pointer.
	free_cb	Free callback function to call when the external buffer needs to be freed.
	fcb_opaque	Argument for the free callback function.

Returns

A pointer to the initialized shared data on success, return NULL otherwise.

Definition at line 990 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static void rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf ( struct rte_mbuf *  m, void *  buf_addr, rte_iova_t  buf_iova, uint16_t  buf_len, struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info *  shinfo  )

inlinestatic

Attach an external buffer to a mbuf.

User-managed anonymous buffer can be attached to an mbuf. When attaching it, corresponding free callback function and its argument should be provided via shinfo. This callback function will be called once all the mbufs are detached from the buffer (refcnt becomes zero).

The headroom length of the attaching mbuf will be set to zero and this can be properly adjusted after attachment. For example, rte_pktmbuf_adj() or rte_pktmbuf_reset_headroom() might be used.

Similarly, the packet length is initialized to 0. If the buffer contains data, the user has to adjust data_len and the pkt_len field of the mbuf accordingly.

More mbufs can be attached to the same external buffer by rte_pktmbuf_attach() once the external buffer has been attached by this API.

Detachment can be done by either rte_pktmbuf_detach_extbuf() or rte_pktmbuf_detach().

Memory for shared data must be provided and user must initialize all of the content properly, especially free callback and refcnt. The pointer of shared data will be stored in m->shinfo. rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper can help to simply spare a few bytes at the end of buffer for the shared data, store free callback and its argument and set the refcnt to 1. The following is an example:

struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info *shinfo = rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper(buf_addr, &buf_len, free_cb, fcb_arg); rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(m, buf_addr, buf_iova, buf_len, shinfo); rte_pktmbuf_reset_headroom(m); rte_pktmbuf_adj(m, data_len);

Attaching an external buffer is quite similar to mbuf indirection in replacing buffer addresses and length of a mbuf, but a few differences:

• When an indirect mbuf is attached, refcnt of the direct mbuf would be 2 as long as the direct mbuf itself isn't freed after the attachment. In such cases, the buffer area of a direct mbuf must be read-only. But external buffer has its own refcnt and it starts from 1. Unless multiple mbufs are attached to a mbuf having an external buffer, the external buffer is writable.
• There's no need to allocate buffer from a mempool. Any buffer can be attached with appropriate free callback and its IO address.
• Smaller metadata is required to maintain shared data such as refcnt.

Parameters

m	The pointer to the mbuf.
buf_addr	The pointer to the external buffer.
buf_iova	IO address of the external buffer.
buf_len	The size of the external buffer.
shinfo	User-provided memory for shared data of the external buffer.

static void rte_mbuf_dynfield_copy ( struct rte_mbuf *  mdst, const struct rte_mbuf *  msrc  )

inlinestatic

Copy dynamic fields from msrc to mdst.

Parameters

mdst	The destination mbuf.
msrc	The source mbuf.

Definition at line 1109 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static void rte_pktmbuf_attach ( struct rte_mbuf *  mi, struct rte_mbuf *  m  )

inlinestatic

Attach packet mbuf to another packet mbuf.

If the mbuf we are attaching to isn't a direct buffer and is attached to an external buffer, the mbuf being attached will be attached to the external buffer instead of mbuf indirection.

Otherwise, the mbuf will be indirectly attached. After attachment we refer the mbuf we attached as 'indirect', while mbuf we attached to as 'direct'. The direct mbuf's reference counter is incremented.

Right now, not supported:

• attachment for already indirect mbuf (e.g. - mi has to be direct).
• mbuf we trying to attach (mi) is used by someone else e.g. it's reference counter is greater then 1.

Parameters

mi	The indirect packet mbuf.
m	The packet mbuf we're attaching to.

Definition at line 1149 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static void rte_pktmbuf_detach ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

inlinestatic

Detach a packet mbuf from external buffer or direct buffer.

• decrement refcnt and free the external/direct buffer if refcnt becomes zero.
• restore original mbuf address and length values.
• reset pktmbuf data and data_len to their default values.

All other fields of the given packet mbuf will be left intact.

If the packet mbuf was allocated from the pool with pinned external buffers the rte_pktmbuf_detach does nothing with the mbuf of this kind, because the pinned buffers are not supposed to be detached.

Parameters

m	The indirect attached packet mbuf.

Definition at line 1239 of file rte_mbuf.h.

static __rte_always_inline struct rte_mbuf* rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg ( struct rte_mbuf *  m )

static

Decrease reference counter and unlink a mbuf segment

This function does the same than a free, except that it does not return the segment to its pool. It decreases the reference counter, and if it reaches 0, it is detached from its parent for an indirect mbuf.

Parameters

m	The mbuf to be unlinked

Returns

• (m) if it is the last reference. It can be recycled or freed.
• (NULL) if the mbuf still has remaining references on it.

Definition at line 1331 of file rte_mbuf.h.
