MACVLAN Documentation (Netlink Routing Development Guide)

Function Documentation

struct rtnl_link* rtnl_link_macvlan_alloc ( void  )

read

Allocate link object of type MACVLAN.

Returns

Allocated link object or NULL.

Definition at line 190 of file macvlan.c.

References rtnl_link_alloc(), rtnl_link_put(), and rtnl_link_set_type().

Here is the call graph for this function:

int rtnl_link_is_macvlan

(

struct rtnl_link *

link

)

Check if link is a MACVLAN link.

Parameters

link	Link object

Returns

True if link is a MACVLAN link, otherwise false is returned.

Definition at line 212 of file macvlan.c.

int rtnl_link_macvlan_set_mode	(	struct rtnl_link *	link,
		uint32_t	mode
	)

Set MACVLAN MODE.

Parameters

link	Link object
mode	MACVLAN mode

Returns

0 on success or a negative error code

Definition at line 224 of file macvlan.c.

uint32_t rtnl_link_macvlan_get_mode

(

struct rtnl_link *

link

)

Get MACVLAN Mode.

Parameters

link	Link object

Returns

MACVLAN mode, 0 if not set or a negative error code.

Definition at line 242 of file macvlan.c.

int rtnl_link_macvlan_set_flags	(	struct rtnl_link *	link,
		uint16_t	flags
	)

Set MACVLAN flags.

Parameters

link	Link object
flags	MACVLAN flags

Returns

0 on success or a negative error code.

Definition at line 261 of file macvlan.c.

int rtnl_link_macvlan_unset_flags	(	struct rtnl_link *	link,
		uint16_t	flags
	)

Unset MACVLAN flags.

Parameters

link	Link object
flags	MACVLAN flags

Note: kernel currently only has a single flag and lacks flags_mask to indicate which flags shall be changed (it always all).

Returns

0 on success or a negative error code.

Definition at line 283 of file macvlan.c.

uint16_t rtnl_link_macvlan_get_flags

(

struct rtnl_link *

link

)

Get MACVLAN flags.

Parameters

link	Link object

Returns

MACVLAN flags, 0 if none set, or a negative error code.

Definition at line 301 of file macvlan.c.
