2016-01-28trafgen: proto: Add function to set field from device MACVadim Kochan1-0/+3
Add helper function to set device's MAC address to protocol field which may be used by Ethernet & ARP protocol header generation functions. Signed-off-by: Vadim Kochan <vadim4j@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2016-01-28trafgen: Add basic protocol generation logicVadim Kochan1-0/+97
Add new trafgen_proto.c module with basic protocol header fields generation logic. This will allow to support protocol specific keywords in the trafgen configuration language. Each protocol must implement struct proto_hdr and register it to the global proto list. Protocol headers consist of a set of fields, and each field must be described via struct proto_field by specifying unique id, length and offset (relative to the header start). Fields smaller than 8 bits can be described via left shift & mask. The following callbacks are invoked to perform special actions to build the header during parsing: 1) header_init - required fields must be added to the packet and initialized with default values. 2) header_finish - it is invoked when header is specified, all user specified fields are set. 3) packet_finish - callback is invoked from upper to lower header to calculate fields depending on upper layers such as total length or checksum. The protocol generation API provides convenience protocol field setters/getters to to be used in the parser while crafting the packet.
