[dpdk-users] How to change IP and port in packet header and recalculate checksum

[dpdk-users] How to change IP and port in packet header and recalculate checksum

[Murad Kablan]

Hi,
I'm trying to change the IP and port of packets before sending them out.
The captured packet in the receiving machines seems to be corrupted as the
port is different than the one I inserted. Am I doing the checksum right?
And do I need to do other HW configurations?

This is my code:
struct udp_hdr *udp_h;
struct ipv4_hdr *ipv4_h;
struct ether_hdr *eth_hdr;
eth_hdr = rte_pktmbuf_mtod(m, struct ether_hdr *);
ipv4_h = (struct ipv4_hdr *)(eth_hdr + 1);
udp_h = (struct udp_hdr *)((unsigned char *)ipv4_h + sizeof(struct
ipv4_hdr));

ipv4_h->dst_addr  = 6777226 //(gateway-ip 10.77.0.51)
udp_h->src_port = 88
ipv4_h->hdr_checksum = 0;
udp_h->dgram_cksum = 0;
udp_h->dgram_cksum = rte_ipv4_udptcp_cksum(ipv4_h, udp_h);
ipv4_h->hdr_checksum = rte_ipv4_cksum(ipv4_h);
l2fwd_simple_forward(m, 0);

Thanks,

Murad

Hey Murad,

Are you running DPDK on the receiving end as well ?
In any case, I'm guessing you forgot to convert to network byte order ? :-)

Hi Jesper,
I'm not running DPDK on the receiving side. Just tcpdump.
Can you please be more specific? What and how to convert to network byte
order?

Thanks

Assuming you are working on a standard Intel architecture or alike, the
constants you write are stored in little endian.
Network byte order is big endian, so for the UDP port (which is 16 bit
large) your code would be:

udp_h->src_port = rte_cpu_to_be_16(88);

Unless you actually want the port to be read as 22528 by the receiver ;-)
Check out the DPDK byte order API for your other constants.

I see what you are saying now. I tried your solution and it works.

Thanks a lot!
