Field Documentation

[union]

union { ... } net_pkt

buffer holding the packet

buffer

struct net_buf* net_pkt::buffer

alias to a buffer fragment

context

struct net_context* net_pkt::context

Network connection context.

cursor

struct net_pkt_cursor net_pkt::cursor

Internal buffer iterator used for reading/writing.

fifo

intptr_t net_pkt::fifo

The fifo is used by RX/TX threads and by socket layer.

The net_pkt is queued via fifo to the processing thread.

frags

struct net_buf* net_pkt::frags

buffer fragment

iface

struct net_if* net_pkt::iface

Network interface.

slab

struct k_mem_slab* net_pkt::slab

Slab pointer from where it belongs to.
