Function Documentation

◆ rte_strsplit()

int rte_strsplit ( char *  string,
int  stringlen,
char **  tokens,
int  maxtokens,
char  delim 
)

Takes string "string" parameter and splits it at character "delim" up to maxtokens-1 times - to give "maxtokens" resulting tokens. Like strtok or strsep functions, this modifies its input string, by replacing instances of "delim" with '\0'. All resultant tokens are returned in the "tokens" array which must have enough entries to hold "maxtokens".

Parameters
stringThe input string to be split into tokens
stringlenThe max length of the input buffer
tokensThe array to hold the pointers to the tokens in the string
maxtokensThe number of elements in the tokens array. At most, maxtokens-1 splits of the string will be done.
delimThe character on which the split of the data will be done
Returns
The number of tokens in the tokens array.
Examples
examples/ipsec-secgw/ipsec-secgw.c, examples/l2fwd-event/main.c, examples/l2fwd-macsec/main.c, examples/l2fwd/main.c, examples/l3fwd-graph/main.c, examples/l3fwd-power/main.c, examples/l3fwd-power/perf_core.c, examples/l3fwd/main.c, examples/qos_sched/args.c, examples/qos_sched/cfg_file.c, examples/vhost/main.c, and examples/vhost_crypto/main.c.

◆ rte_strscpy()

ssize_t rte_strscpy ( char *  dst,
const char *  src,
size_t  dsize 
)

Copy string src to buffer dst of size dsize. At most dsize-1 chars will be copied. Always NUL-terminates, unless (dsize == 0).

Parameters
dstThe destination string.
srcThe input string to be copied.
dsizeLength in bytes of the destination buffer.
Returns
The number of bytes copied (terminating NUL-byte excluded) on success. -E2BIG if the destination buffer is too small. rte_errno is set.
Examples
examples/fips_validation/fips_validation.c, and examples/vdpa/main.c.

◆ rte_str_skip_leading_spaces()

static __rte_experimental const char * rte_str_skip_leading_spaces ( const char *  src)
inlinestatic
Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice.

Search for the first non whitespace character.

Parameters
srcThe input string to be analysed.
Returns
The address of the first non whitespace character.
Examples
examples/fips_validation/fips_validation.c, examples/ip_pipeline/parser.c, and examples/pipeline/cli.c.

◆ rte_basename()

__rte_experimental size_t rte_basename ( const char *  path,
char *  buf,
size_t  buflen 
)
Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice.

Provides the final component of a path, similar to POSIX basename function.

This API provides the similar behaviour on all platforms, Linux, BSD, Windows, hiding the implementation differences.

  • It does not modify the input path.
  • The output buffer is passed as an argument, and the result is copied into it.
  • Expected output is the last component of the path, or the path itself if it does not contain a directory separator.
  • If the final component is too long to fit in the output buffer, it will be truncated.
  • For empty or NULL input paths, output buffer will contain the string ".".
  • Supports up to PATH_MAX (BSD/Linux) or _MAX_PATH (Windows) characters in the input path.
Parameters
pathThe input path string. Not modified by this function.
bufThe buffer to hold the resultant basename. Must be large enough to hold the result, otherwise basename will be truncated.
buflenThe size of the buffer in bytes.
Returns
The number of bytes that were written to buf (excluding the terminating '\0'). If the return value is >= buflen, truncation occurred. Return (size_t)-1 on error (Windows only)
