Hi Pepe,

Ofcourse a simple cast will not suffice.
Please look the rte_mbuf structure in the header files and let me know if you still have the confusion.
There is a header and payload. Your raw frame will go in the payload.


Regards

Subject: [dpdk-dev] raw frame to rte_mbuf

Hi,

In DPDK how should a raw ethernet frame converted to rte_mbuf * ?  For example if I have an ARP packet:

void * arp_pkt

how should this be converted to an rte_mbuf * for transmission, does a simple cast suffice ?

Cheers,
Pepe
