Function Documentation

moep_frame_t moep_frame_create	(	struct moep_frame_ops *	l1_ops,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l2_ops
	)

create a frame

The function moep_frame_create() is used to create a frame with the given frame header operations.

Parameters

l1_ops	frame header operations for layer 1
l2_ops	frame header operations for layer 2

Returns: This function returns a moep frame.

Return values

NULL	on error, errno is set appropriately.

Errors

ENOMEM Not enough memory available

void moep_frame_convert	(	moep_frame_t	frame,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l1_ops,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l2_ops
	)

convert a frame

The function moep_frame_convert() is used to convert the headers of a frame to the format required by the given frame header operations. This function does not convert any header data, it only removes the old headers and creates new empty headers in the specified format. This function is useful if you want to convert a frame, without copying the payload.

Parameters

frame	the frame
l1_ops	frame header operations for layer 1
l2_ops	frame header operations for layer 2

void* moep_frame_l1_hdr	(	moep_frame_t	frame,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l1_ops
	)

layer 1 header

The function moep_frame_l1_hdr() is used to get the layer 1 header of a frame.

Parameters

frame	the frame
l1_ops	frame header operations for layer 1

Returns: This function returns the layer 1 header.

Return values

NULL	on error, errno is set appropriately.

Errors

These are some standard errors generated by this function. Additional errors may be generated and returned from the underlying device specific functions.

EACCES The frame has not the header format specified by l1_ops.

void* moep_frame_l2_hdr	(	moep_frame_t	frame,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l2_ops
	)

layer 2 header

The function moep_frame_l2_hdr() is used to get the layer 2 header of a frame.

Parameters

frame	the frame
l2_ops	frame header operations for layer 2

Returns: This function returns the layer 2 header.

Return values

NULL	on error, errno is set appropriately.

Errors

These are some standard errors generated by this function. Additional errors may be generated and returned from the underlying device specific functions.

EACCES The frame has not the header format specified by l2_ops.

moep_dev_t moep_dev_open	(	int	fd,
		int	mtu,
		struct moep_dev_ops *	ops,
		void *	priv,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l1_ops,
		struct moep_frame_ops *	l2_ops
	)

open a moep device

The function moep_dev_open() is used to open a moep device. The passed file descriptor must refer to the underlying device and support read and write operations. The MTU includes all headers.

Parameters

fd	file descriptor of the device
mtu	the MTU of the device
ops	moep device operations
priv	private data
l1_ops	frame header operations for layer 1
l2_ops	frame header operations for layer 2

Returns: This function returns a new moep device.

Return values

NULL	on error, errno is set appropriately.

Errors

These are some standard errors generated and returned by this function. Additional errors may be generated and returned from the underlying system calls.

EINVAL	Invalid argument
EMFILE	Too many open files; Some file descriptors are too big for select.
ENOMEM	Not enough memory available

void* moep_dev_get_priv	(	moep_dev_t	dev,
		struct moep_dev_ops *	ops
	)

return the private data of a moep device

The function moep_dev_get_priv() is used to get the private data of the moep device.

Parameters

dev	the moep device
ops	moep device operations

Returns: This function returns the private data of the moep device.

Return values

NULL	on error (errno is set appropriately) or if the private data is NULL

Errors

EACCES The moep device has not the type specified by ops
