13 * The mbuf library provides the ability to create and destroy buffers
14 * that may be used by the RTE application to store message
15 * buffers. The message buffers are stored in a mempool, using the
16 * RTE mempool library.
18 * The preferred way to create a mbuf pool is to use
19 * rte_pktmbuf_pool_create(). However, in some situations, an
20 * application may want to have more control (ex: populate the pool with
21 * specific memory), in this case it is possible to use functions from
22 * rte_mempool. See how rte_pktmbuf_pool_create() is implemented for
25 * This library provides an API to allocate/free packet mbufs, which are
26 * used to carry network packets.
28 * To understand the concepts of packet buffers or mbufs, you
29 * should read "TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2: The Implementation,
30 * Addison-Wesley, 1995, ISBN 0-201-63354-X from Richard Stevens"

53 * - RX flags start at bit position zero, and get added to the left of previous

56 * - TX flags therefore start at bit position 60 (i.e. 63-3), and new flags get

1420 * More mbufs can be attached to the same external buffer by
1421 * ``rte_pktmbuf_attach()`` once the external buffer has been attached by
1424 * Detachment can be done by either ``rte_pktmbuf_detach_extbuf()`` or
1425 * ``rte_pktmbuf_detach()``.
1427 * Memory for shared data must be provided and user must initialize all of
1428 * the content properly, escpecially free callback and refcnt. The pointer
1429 * of shared data will be stored in m->shinfo.
1430 * ``rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper`` can help to simply spare a few
1431 * bytes at the end of buffer for the shared data, store free callback and
1432 * its argument and set the refcnt to 1. The following is an example:
1434 * struct rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info *shinfo =
1435 * rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper(buf_addr, &buf_len,
1436 * free_cb, fcb_arg);
1437 * rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(m, buf_addr, buf_iova, buf_len, shinfo);
1438 * rte_pktmbuf_reset_headroom(m);
1439 * rte_pktmbuf_adj(m, data_len);
1441 * Attaching an external buffer is quite similar to mbuf indirection in
1442 * replacing buffer addresses and length of a mbuf, but a few differences:
1443 * - When an indirect mbuf is attached, refcnt of the direct mbuf would be
1444 * 2 as long as the direct mbuf itself isn't freed after the attachment.
1445 * In such cases, the buffer area of a direct mbuf must be read-only. But
1446 * external buffer has its own refcnt and it starts from 1. Unless
1447 * multiple mbufs are attached to a mbuf having an external buffer, the
1448 * external buffer is writable.
1449 * - There's no need to allocate buffer from a mempool. Any buffer can be
1450 * attached with appropriate free callback and its IO address.
1451 * - Smaller metadata is required to maintain shared data such as refcnt.
1454 * @b EXPERIMENTAL: This API may change without prior notice.
1455 * Once external buffer is enabled by allowing experimental API,
1456 * ``RTE_MBUF_DIRECT()`` and ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()`` are no longer
1457 * exclusive. A mbuf can be considered direct if it is neither indirect nor
1458 * having external buffer.
1461 * The pointer to the mbuf.
1463 * The pointer to the external buffer.
1465 * IO address of the external buffer.
1467 * The size of the external buffer.
1469 * User-provided memory for shared data of the external buffer.
