Field Documentation

[union]

union { ... } net_if_addr

addr_state

enum net_addr_state net_if_addr::addr_state

What is the current state of the address.

addr_type

enum net_addr_type net_if_addr::addr_type

How the IP address was set.

address

struct net_addr net_if_addr::address

IP address.

atomic_ref

atomic_t net_if_addr::atomic_ref

Reference counter.

This is used to prevent address removal if there are sockets that have bound the local endpoint to this address.

is_infinite

uint8_t net_if_addr::is_infinite

Is the IP address valid forever.

is_mesh_local

uint8_t net_if_addr::is_mesh_local

Is this IP address usage limited to the subnet (mesh) or not.

is_temporary

uint8_t net_if_addr::is_temporary

Is this IP address temporary and generated for example by IPv6 privacy extension (RFC 8981)

is_used

uint8_t net_if_addr::is_used

Is this IP address used or not.
