Macros
#define	RTE_STORAGE_ALIGN 8U
	Alignment (bytes) guaranteed for every opaque storage block.
#define	RTE_ALIGNED_(n)
	Portable alignment specifier used ahead of a storage byte array (e.g. in RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE) so its address is suitable for the OSAdapter's internal struct layout. Expands to the best available mechanism for the compiler (C11 _Alignas, MSVC declspec, or GCC/Clang __attribute); expands to nothing on compilers with no portable alignment control.
#define	RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE(type_name, byte_size)
	Declares an opaque, fixed-size, aligned storage type for a service's handle. The real internal layout is private to the OSAdapter implementation; callers only reserve the bytes.

Detailed Description

Fixed-width types and the caller-owned-storage handle pattern.

Macro Definition Documentation

◆ RTE_STORAGE_ALIGN

#define RTE_STORAGE_ALIGN 8U

Alignment (bytes) guaranteed for every opaque storage block.

Definition at line 36 of file rte_types.h.

◆ RTE_ALIGNED_

#define RTE_ALIGNED_ ( n )

Portable alignment specifier used ahead of a storage byte array (e.g. in RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE) so its address is suitable for the OSAdapter's internal struct layout. Expands to the best available mechanism for the compiler (C11 _Alignas, MSVC declspec, or GCC/Clang __attribute); expands to nothing on compilers with no portable alignment control.

Parameters

n	Requested alignment in bytes.

Definition at line 58 of file rte_types.h.

◆ RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE

#define RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE	(		type_name,
			byte_size )

Value:

typedef struct                                                      \
{                                                                    \
    RTE_ALIGNED_(RTE_STORAGE_ALIGN)                          \
    unsigned char reserved_[(byte_size)];                           \
} type_name

Declares an opaque, fixed-size, aligned storage type for a service's handle. The real internal layout is private to the OSAdapter implementation; callers only reserve the bytes.

Usage: RTE_DECLARE_STORAGE(rte_timer_storage_t, 64U);

Definition at line 69 of file rte_types.h.

Typedef Documentation

◆ rte_duration_ms_t

typedef uint32_t rte_duration_ms_t

Milliseconds, used by all timer/deadline related APIs.

Definition at line 27 of file rte_types.h.

◆ rte_timestamp_ms_t

typedef uint64_t rte_timestamp_ms_t

Monotonic timestamp in milliseconds since an arbitrary epoch.

Definition at line 30 of file rte_types.h.
