Macro Definition Documentation

RTE_TAILQ_CAST

#define RTE_TAILQ_CAST	(		tailq_entry,
			struct_name
	)		(struct struct_name *)&(tailq_entry)->tailq_head

Return the first tailq entry cast to the right struct.

Definition at line 56 of file rte_tailq.h.

RTE_TAILQ_LOOKUP

#define RTE_TAILQ_LOOKUP	(		name,
			struct_name
	)		RTE_TAILQ_CAST(rte_eal_tailq_lookup(name), struct_name)

Utility macro to make looking up a tailqueue for a particular struct easier.

Parameters

name	The name of tailq
struct_name	The name of the list type we are using. (Generally this is the same as the first parameter passed to TAILQ_HEAD macro)

Returns

The return value from rte_eal_tailq_lookup, typecast to the appropriate structure pointer type. NULL on error, since the tailq_head is the first element in the rte_tailq_head structure.

Definition at line 75 of file rte_tailq.h.

Function Documentation

RTE_TAILQ_HEAD()

RTE_TAILQ_HEAD	(	rte_tailq_entry_head	,
		rte_tailq_entry
	)

dummy

rte_dump_tailq()

void rte_dump_tailq

(

FILE *

f

)

Dump tail queues to a file.

Parameters

f	A pointer to a file for output

rte_eal_tailq_lookup()

struct rte_tailq_head* rte_eal_tailq_lookup

(

const char *

name

)

Lookup for a tail queue.

Get a pointer to a tail queue header of a tail queue identified by the name given as an argument. Note: this function is not multi-thread safe, and should only be called from a single thread at a time

Parameters

name	The name of the queue.

Returns

A pointer to the tail queue head structure.

rte_eal_tailq_register()

int rte_eal_tailq_register

(

struct rte_tailq_elem *

t

)

Register a tail queue.

Register a tail queue from shared memory. This function is mainly used by EAL_REGISTER_TAILQ macro which is used to register tailq from the different dpdk libraries. Since this macro is a constructor, the function has no access to dpdk shared memory, so the registered tailq can not be used before call to rte_eal_init() which calls rte_eal_tailqs_init().

Parameters

t	The tailq element which contains the name of the tailq you want to create (/retrieve when in secondary process).

Returns

0 on success or -1 in case of an error.
