DPDK                                             Version 24.11.2                             rte_bpf_ethdev.h(3)

       API to install BPF filter as RX/TX callbacks for eth devices. Note that right now:

       • it  is  not  MT  safe,  i.e. it is not allowed to do load/unload for the same port/queue from different
         threads in parallel.

       • though it allows to do load/unload at runtime (while RX/TX is ongoing on given port/queue).

       • allows only one BPF program per port/queue, i.e. new load  will  replace  previously  loaded  for  that
         port/queue  BPF  program. Filter behaviour - if BPF program returns zero value for a given packet, then
         it will be dropped inside callback and no further processing on RX - it will be dropped inside callback
         and no further processing for that packet will happen. on TX - packet will remain  unsent,  and  it  is
         responsibility of the user to handle such situation (drop, try to send again, etc.).

voidrte_bpf_eth_rx_unload(uint16_tport,uint16_tqueue)
       Unload  previously  loaded  BPF  program  (if  any)  from  given  RX port/queue and remove appropriate RX
       port/queue callback.

       Parametersport The identifier of the ethernet port
           queue The identifier of the RX queue on the given port

   voidrte_bpf_eth_tx_unload(uint16_tport,uint16_tqueue)
       Unload previously loaded BPF program (if  any)  from  given  TX  port/queue  and  remove  appropriate  TX
       port/queue callback.

       Parametersport The identifier of the ethernet port
           queue The identifier of the TX queue on the given port

   intrte_bpf_eth_rx_elf_load(uint16_tport,uint16_tqueue,conststructrte_bpf_prm*prm,constchar*fname,constchar*sname,uint32_tflags)
       Load BPF program from the ELF file and install callback to execute it on given RX port/queue.

       Parametersport The identifier of the ethernet port
           queue The identifier of the RX queue on the given port
           fname Pathname for a ELF file.
           sname Name of the executable section within the file to load.
           prm Parameters used to create and initialise the BPF execution context.
           flags Flags that define expected behavior of the loaded filter (i.e. jited/non-jited version to use).

       Returns
           Zero on successful completion or negative error code otherwise.

   intrte_bpf_eth_tx_elf_load(uint16_tport,uint16_tqueue,conststructrte_bpf_prm*prm,constchar*fname,constchar*sname,uint32_tflags)

           fname Pathname for a ELF file.
           sname Name of the executable section within the file to load.
           prm Parameters used to create and initialise the BPF execution context.
           flags Flags that define expected behavior of the loaded filter (i.e. jited/non-jited version to use).
