Macro Definition Documentation

NET_BUF_EXTERNAL_DATA

#define NET_BUF_EXTERNAL_DATA   BIT(0)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Flag indicating that the buffer's associated data pointer, points to externally allocated memory.

Therefore once ref goes down to zero, the pointed data will not need to be deallocated. This never needs to be explicitly set or unset by the net_buf API user. Such net_buf is exclusively instantiated via net_buf_alloc_with_data() function. Reference count mechanism however will behave the same way, and ref count going to 0 will free the net_buf but no the data pointer in it.

NET_BUF_POOL_DEFINE

#define NET_BUF_POOL_DEFINE	(		_name,
			_count,
			_size,
			_ud_size,
			_destroy
	)		NET_BUF_POOL_FIXED_DEFINE(_name, _count, _size, _ud_size, _destroy)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Define a new pool for buffers.

Defines a net_buf_pool struct and the necessary memory storage (array of structs) for the needed amount of buffers. After this,the buffers can be accessed from the pool through net_buf_alloc. The pool is defined as a static variable, so if it needs to be exported outside the current module this needs to happen with the help of a separate pointer rather than an extern declaration.

If provided with a custom destroy callback this callback is responsible for eventually calling net_buf_destroy() to complete the process of returning the buffer to the pool.

Parameters

_name	Name of the pool variable.
_count	Number of buffers in the pool.
_size	Maximum data size for each buffer.
_ud_size	Amount of user data space to reserve.
_destroy	Optional destroy callback when buffer is freed.

NET_BUF_POOL_FIXED_DEFINE

#define NET_BUF_POOL_FIXED_DEFINE	(		_name,
			_count,
			_data_size,
			_ud_size,
			_destroy
	)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Value:

Define a new pool for buffers based on fixed-size data.

Defines a net_buf_pool struct and the necessary memory storage (array of structs) for the needed amount of buffers. After this, the buffers can be accessed from the pool through net_buf_alloc. The pool is defined as a static variable, so if it needs to be exported outside the current module this needs to happen with the help of a separate pointer rather than an extern declaration.

The data payload of the buffers will be allocated from a byte array of fixed sized chunks. This kind of pool does not support blocking on the data allocation, so the timeout passed to net_buf_alloc will be always treated as K_NO_WAIT when trying to allocate the data. This means that allocation failures, i.e. NULL returns, must always be handled cleanly.

If provided with a custom destroy callback, this callback is responsible for eventually calling net_buf_destroy() to complete the process of returning the buffer to the pool.

Parameters

_name	Name of the pool variable.
_count	Number of buffers in the pool.
_data_size	Maximum data payload per buffer.
_ud_size	User data space to reserve per buffer.
_destroy	Optional destroy callback when buffer is freed.

                                         _destroy)

Define a new pool for buffers using the heap for the data.

Defines a net_buf_pool struct and the necessary memory storage (array of structs) for the needed amount of buffers. After this, the buffers can be accessed from the pool through net_buf_alloc. The pool is defined as a static variable, so if it needs to be exported outside the current module this needs to happen with the help of a separate pointer rather than an extern declaration.

The data payload of the buffers will be allocated from the heap using k_malloc, so CONFIG_HEAP_MEM_POOL_SIZE must be set to a positive value. This kind of pool does not support blocking on the data allocation, so the timeout passed to net_buf_alloc will be always treated as K_NO_WAIT when trying to allocate the data. This means that allocation failures, i.e. NULL returns, must always be handled cleanly.

If provided with a custom destroy callback, this callback is responsible for eventually calling net_buf_destroy() to complete the process of returning the buffer to the pool.

Parameters

_name	Name of the pool variable.
_count	Number of buffers in the pool.
_ud_size	User data space to reserve per buffer.
_destroy	Optional destroy callback when buffer is freed.

Define a new pool for buffers with variable size payloads.

Defines a net_buf_pool struct and the necessary memory storage (array of structs) for the needed amount of buffers. After this, the buffers can be accessed from the pool through net_buf_alloc. The pool is defined as a static variable, so if it needs to be exported outside the current module this needs to happen with the help of a separate pointer rather than an extern declaration.

The data payload of the buffers will be based on a memory pool from which variable size payloads may be allocated.

If provided with a custom destroy callback, this callback is responsible for eventually calling net_buf_destroy() to complete the process of returning the buffer to the pool.

Parameters

_name	Name of the pool variable.
_count	Number of buffers in the pool.
_data_size	Total amount of memory available for data payloads.

net_buf_simple_tail()

static uint8_t * net_buf_simple_tail ( struct net_buf_simple *  buf )

inlinestatic

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Get the tail pointer for a buffer.

Get a pointer to the end of the data in a buffer.

Parameters

buf

Buffer.

Returns

Tail pointer for the buffer.

net_buf_simple_tailroom()

size_t net_buf_simple_tailroom

(

struct net_buf_simple *

buf

)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Check buffer tailroom.

Check how much free space there is at the end of the buffer.

Parameters

buf	A valid pointer on a buffer

Returns

Number of bytes available at the end of the buffer.

net_buf_skip()

static struct net_buf * net_buf_skip ( struct net_buf *  buf, size_t  len  )

inlinestatic

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Skip N number of bytes in a net_buf.

Skip N number of bytes starting from fragment's offset. If the total length of data is placed in multiple fragments, this function will skip from all fragments until it reaches N number of bytes. Any fully skipped buffers are removed from the net_buf list.

Parameters

buf	Network buffer.
len	Total length of data to be skipped.

Returns

Pointer to the fragment or NULL and pos is 0 after successful skip, NULL and pos is 0xffff otherwise.

net_buf_slist_get()

struct net_buf * net_buf_slist_get

(

sys_slist_t *

list

)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Get a buffer from a list.

If the buffer had any fragments, these will automatically be recovered from the list as well and be placed to the buffer's fragment list.

Parameters

list	Which list to take the buffer from.

Returns

New buffer or NULL if the FIFO is empty.

net_buf_slist_put()

void net_buf_slist_put	(	sys_slist_t *	list,
		struct net_buf *	buf
	)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Put a buffer into a list.

If the buffer contains follow-up fragments this function will take care of inserting them as well into the list.

Parameters

list	Which list to append the buffer to.
buf	Buffer.

net_buf_tail()

static uint8_t * net_buf_tail ( struct net_buf *  buf )

inlinestatic

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Get the tail pointer for a buffer.

Get a pointer to the end of the data in a buffer.

Parameters

buf

Buffer.

Returns

Tail pointer for the buffer.

net_buf_tailroom()

static size_t net_buf_tailroom ( struct net_buf *  buf )

inlinestatic

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Check buffer tailroom.

Check how much free space there is at the end of the buffer.

Parameters

buf	A valid pointer on a buffer

Returns

Number of bytes available at the end of the buffer.

net_buf_unref()

void net_buf_unref

(

struct net_buf *

buf

)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Decrements the reference count of a buffer.

The buffer is put back into the pool if the reference count reaches zero.

Parameters

buf	A valid pointer on a buffer

net_buf_user_data()

static void * net_buf_user_data ( const struct net_buf *  buf )

inlinestatic

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Get a pointer to the user data of a buffer.

Parameters

buf	A valid pointer on a buffer

Returns

Pointer to the user data of the buffer.

net_buf_user_data_copy()

int net_buf_user_data_copy	(	struct net_buf *	dst,
		const struct net_buf *	src
	)

#include <zephyr/net/buf.h>

Copy user data from one to another buffer.

Parameters

dst	A valid pointer to a buffer gettings its user data overwritten.
src	A valid pointer to a buffer gettings its user data copied. User data size must be equal to or exceed dst.

Returns

0 on success or negative error number on failure.
