rte_flow_error Struct Reference

#include <rte_flow.h>

Data Fields
enum rte_flow_error_type	type
const void *	cause
const char *	message

Detailed Description

Verbose error structure definition.

This object is normally allocated by applications and set by PMDs, the message points to a constant string which does not need to be freed by the application, however its pointer can be considered valid only as long as its associated DPDK port remains configured. Closing the underlying device or unloading the PMD invalidates it.

Both cause and message may be NULL regardless of the error type.

Examples:

examples/flow_filtering/flow_blocks.c, examples/flow_filtering/main.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/flow.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c, examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec.c, and examples/l2fwd-macsec/main.c.
