Detailed Description

Network buffer representation.

This struct is used to represent network buffers. Such buffers are normally defined through the NET_BUF_POOL_*_DEFINE() APIs and allocated using the net_buf_alloc() API.

Field Documentation

union { ... } net_buf::@274

b

struct net_buf_simple net_buf::b

data

uint8_t* net_buf::data

Pointer to the start of data in the buffer.

flags

uint8_t net_buf::flags

Bit-field of buffer flags.

frags

struct net_buf* net_buf::frags

Fragments associated with this buffer.

len

uint16_t net_buf::len

Length of the data behind the data pointer.

node

sys_snode_t net_buf::node

pool_id

uint8_t net_buf::pool_id

Where the buffer should go when freed up.

ref

uint8_t net_buf::ref

Reference count.

size

uint16_t net_buf::size

Amount of data that this buffer can store.

user_data

uint8_t net_buf::user_data[]

System metadata for this buffer.

user_data_size
