The Linux Manuals (man pages) document is an important part of Linux documents. Linux Manuals are organized as several sections. Each section has a group of commands for a specific area in Linux usage, administration or development.
skb_queue_splice_init – join two skb lists and reinitialise the emptied list Synopsis void skb_queue_splice_init(struct sk_buff_head *list, struct sk_buff_head *head); Arguments list the new list to add head the place to add it in the first list Description The list at list is reinitialised Copyright
skb_queue_splice – join two skb lists, this is designed for stacks Synopsis void skb_queue_splice(const struct sk_buff_head *list, struct sk_buff_head *head); Arguments list the new list to add head the place to add it in the first list Copyright
skb_queue_purge – empty a list Synopsis void skb_queue_purge(struct sk_buff_head *list); Arguments list list to empty Description Delete all buffers on an sk_buff list. Each buffer is removed from the list and one reference dropped. This function takes the list lock and is atomic with respect to other list locking functions. Copyright
skb_queue_prev – return the prev packet in the queue Synopsis struct sk_buff *skb_queue_prev(const struct sk_buff_head *list, const struct sk_buff *skb); Arguments list queue head skb current buffer Description Return the prev packet in list before skb. It is only valid to call this if skb_queue_is_first evaluates to false. Copyright
skb_queue_next – return the next packet in the queue Synopsis struct sk_buff *skb_queue_next(const struct sk_buff_head *list, const struct sk_buff *skb); Arguments list queue head skb current buffer Description Return the next packet in list after skb. It is only valid to call this if skb_queue_is_last evaluates to false. Copyright
skb_queue_len – get queue length Synopsis __u32 skb_queue_len(const struct sk_buff_head * list_); Arguments list_ list to measure Description Return the length of an sk_buff queue. Copyright
skb_queue_is_last – check if skb is the last entry in the queue Synopsis bool skb_queue_is_last(const struct sk_buff_head * list, const struct sk_buff * skb); Arguments list queue head skb buffer Description Returns true if skb is the last buffer on the list. Copyright
skb_queue_is_first – check if skb is the first entry in the queue Synopsis bool skb_queue_is_first(const struct sk_buff_head * list, const struct sk_buff * skb); Arguments list queue head skb buffer Description Returns true if skb is the first buffer on the list. Copyright
skb_queue_head – queue a buffer at the list head Synopsis void skb_queue_head(struct sk_buff_head *list, struct sk_buff *newsk); Arguments list list to use newsk buffer to queue Description Queue a buffer at the start of the list. This function takes the list lock and can be used safely with other locking sk_buff functions safely. A buffer…
skb_queue_empty – check if a queue is empty Synopsis int skb_queue_empty(const struct sk_buff_head *list); Arguments list queue head Description Returns true if the queue is empty, false otherwise. Copyright
skb_put_padto – increase size and pad an skbuff up to a minimal size Synopsis int skb_put_padto(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to pad len minimal length Description Pads up a buffer to ensure the trailing bytes exist and are blanked. If the buffer already contains sufficient data it is untouched. Otherwise it…
skb_put – add data to a buffer Synopsis unsigned char *skb_put(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to use len amount of data to add Description This function extends the used data area of the buffer. If this would exceed the total buffer size the kernel will panic. A pointer to the first…
skb_push_rcsum – push skb and update receive checksum Synopsis unsigned char *skb_push_rcsum(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to update len length of data pulled Description This function performs an skb_push on the packet and updates the CHECKSUM_COMPLETE checksum. It should be used on receive path processing instead of skb_push unless you know…
skb_push – add data to the start of a buffer Synopsis unsigned char *skb_push(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to use len amount of data to add Description This function extends the used data area of the buffer at the buffer start. If this would exceed the total buffer headroom the kernel…
skb_pull_rcsum – pull skb and update receive checksum Synopsis unsigned char *skb_pull_rcsum(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to update len length of data pulled Description This function performs an skb_pull on the packet and updates the CHECKSUM_COMPLETE checksum. It should be used on receive path processing instead of skb_pull unless you know…
skb_pull – remove data from the start of a buffer Synopsis unsigned char *skb_pull(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to use len amount of data to remove Description This function removes data from the start of a buffer, returning the memory to the headroom. A pointer to the next data in the…
skb_propagate_pfmemalloc – Propagate pfmemalloc if skb is allocated after RX page Synopsis void skb_propagate_pfmemalloc(struct page *page, struct sk_buff *skb); Arguments page The page that was allocated from skb_alloc_page skb The skb that may need pfmemalloc set Copyright
skb_prepare_seq_read – Prepare a sequential read of skb data Synopsis void skb_prepare_seq_read(struct sk_buff *skb, unsigned int from, unsigned int to, struct skb_seq_state *st); Arguments skb the buffer to read from lower offset of data to be read to upper offset of data to be read st state variable Description Initializes the specified state variable. Must…
skb_postpush_rcsum – update checksum for received skb after push Synopsis void skb_postpush_rcsum(struct sk_buff *skb, const void *start, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to update start start of data after push len length of data pushed Description After doing a push on a received packet, you need to call this to update the CHECKSUM_COMPLETE checksum….
skb_postpull_rcsum – update checksum for received skb after pull Synopsis void skb_postpull_rcsum(struct sk_buff *skb, const void *start, unsigned int len); Arguments skb buffer to update start start of data before pull len length of data pulled Description After doing a pull on a received packet, you need to call this to update the CHECKSUM_COMPLETE checksum,…
