Macro Definition Documentation

◆ __rte_aligned

#define __rte_aligned (   a)    __attribute__((__aligned__(a)))

Force type alignment

This macro should be used when alignment of a struct or union type is required. For toolchain compatibility it should appear between the {struct,union} keyword and tag. e.g.

struct __rte_aligned(8) tag { ... };

If alignment of an object/variable is required then this macro should not be used, instead prefer C11 alignas(a).

Examples
examples/multi_process/symmetric_mp/main.c.

Definition at line 87 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_packed

#define __rte_packed   (RTE_DEPRECATED(__rte_packed) __attribute__((__packed__)))

  first_arg 
)     __attribute__((format(printf, format_index, first_arg)))

Check format string and its arguments at compile-time.

GCC on Windows assumes MS-specific format string by default, even if the underlying stdio implementation is ANSI-compliant, so this must be overridden.

Definition at line 242 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_section

#define __rte_section (   name)     __attribute__((section(name)))

Specify data or function section/segment.

Definition at line 254 of file rte_common.h.

Definition at line 267 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_alloc_align

#define __rte_alloc_align (   argno)

Tells the compiler that the function returns a value that points to memory aligned by a function argument.

Note: not enabled on Clang because it warns if align argument is zero.

Definition at line 280 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_malloc

#define __rte_malloc

Tells the compiler this is a function like malloc and that the pointer returned cannot alias any other pointer (ie new memory).

Definition at line 290 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_dealloc

#define __rte_dealloc (   dealloc,
  argno 
)

With recent GCC versions also able to track that proper deallocator function is used for this pointer.

Definition at line 301 of file rte_common.h.

Definition at line 323 of file rte_common.h.

◆ RTE_INIT

#define RTE_INIT (   func)     RTE_INIT_PRIO(func, LAST)

Run function before main() with low priority.

The constructor will be run after prioritized constructors.

Parameters
funcConstructor function.

Definition at line 355 of file rte_common.h.

◆ RTE_FINI_PRIO

#define RTE_FINI_PRIO (   func,
  prio 
)    static void __attribute__((destructor(RTE_PRIO(prio)), used)) func(void)

Run after main() with low priority.

Parameters
funcDestructor function name.
prioPriority number must be above 100. Lowest number is the last to run.

◆ RTE_FINI

#define RTE_FINI (   func)     RTE_FINI_PRIO(func, LAST)

Run after main() with high priority.

The destructor will be run before prioritized destructors.

◆ __rte_noreturn

#define __rte_noreturn   __attribute__((noreturn))

◆ __rte_unreachable

#define __rte_unreachable ( )    __assume(0)

Hint point in program never reached

Definition at line 414 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_warn_unused_result

#define __rte_warn_unused_result   __attribute__((warn_unused_result))

Issue a warning in case the function's return value is ignored.

The use of this attribute should be restricted to cases where ignoring the marked function's return value is almost always a bug. With GCC, some effort is required to make clear that ignoring the return value is intentional. The usual void-casting method to mark something unused as used does not suppress the warning with this compiler.

void ignore_foo_result(void) {
foo(); // generates a warning with all compilers
(void)foo(); // still generates the warning with GCC (but not clang)
int unused __rte_unused;
unused = foo(); // does the trick with all compilers
}
#define __rte_unused
Definition: rte_common.h:210
#define __rte_warn_unused_result
Definition: rte_common.h:443

Definition at line 443 of file rte_common.h.

Definition at line 470 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_cold

#define __rte_cold   __attribute__((cold))

Hint function in the cold path

Definition at line 479 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_assume

#define __rte_assume (   condition)    __assume(condition)

Hint precondition

Warning
Depending on the compiler, any code in condition might be executed. This currently only occurs with GCC prior to version 13.

Definition at line 495 of file rte_common.h.

◆ __rte_no_asan

#define __rte_no_asan

Disable AddressSanitizer on some code

Definition at line 508 of file rte_common.h.

◆ RTE_PTR_ADD

#define RTE_PTR_ADD (   ptr,

Definition at line 536 of file rte_common.h.

◆ RTE_CAST_PTR

#define RTE_CAST_PTR (   type,
  ptr 
)    ((type)(uintptr_t)(ptr))

Macro to cast a pointer to a specific type, without the compiler emitting a warning about discarding qualifiers.

Warning
When casting a pointer to point to a larger type, the resulting pointer may be misaligned, which results in undefined behavior. E.g.:

struct s { uint16_t a; uint8_t b; uint8_t c; uint8_t d; } v; uint16_t * p = RTE_CAST_PTR(uint16_t *, &v.c); // "p" is not 16 bit aligned!

  align 
)     RTE_PTR_ALIGN_FLOOR((typeof(ptr))RTE_PTR_ADD(ptr, (align) - 1), align)

Typedef Documentation

◆ phys_addr_t

typedef uint64_t phys_addr_t

Physical address

Definition at line 722 of file rte_common.h.

◆ rte_iova_t

typedef uint64_t rte_iova_t

IO virtual address type. When the physical addressing mode (IOVA as PA) is in use, the translation from an IO virtual address (IOVA) to a physical address is a direct mapping, i.e. the same value. Otherwise, in virtual mode (IOVA as VA), an IOMMU may do the translation.

Function Documentation

◆ rte_is_aligned()

static int rte_is_aligned ( const void *const __rte_restrict  ptr,
const unsigned int  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 660 of file rte_common.h.

◆ rte_str_to_size()

uint64_t rte_str_to_size ( const char *  str)

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.

◆ rte_exit()

__rte_noreturn 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.
