net_if Struct Reference

Network Interface structure. More...

#include <net_if.h>

Data Fields
struct net_if_dev *	if_dev
	The net_if_dev instance the net_if is related to.
struct net_if_config	config
	Network interface instance configuration.
struct k_mutex	lock
	Mutex protecting this network interface instance.
struct k_mutex	tx_lock
	Mutex used when sending data.
uint8_t	pe_enabled: 1
	Network interface specific flags.
uint8_t	pe_prefer_public: 1
	If PE is enabled, then this tells whether public addresses are preferred over temporary ones for this interface.

Detailed Description

Network Interface structure.

Used to handle a network interface on top of a net_if_dev instance. There can be many net_if instance against the same net_if_dev instance.

Field Documentation

config

struct net_if_config net_if::config

Network interface instance configuration.

if_dev

struct net_if_dev* net_if::if_dev

The net_if_dev instance the net_if is related to.

lock

struct k_mutex net_if::lock

Mutex protecting this network interface instance.

pe_enabled

uint8_t net_if::pe_enabled

Network interface specific flags.

Enable IPv6 privacy extension (RFC 8981), this is enabled by default if PE support is enabled in configuration.

pe_prefer_public

uint8_t net_if::pe_prefer_public

If PE is enabled, then this tells whether public addresses are preferred over temporary ones for this interface.

tx_lock

struct k_mutex net_if::tx_lock

Mutex used when sending data.
