Detailed Description

IPv4 socket address.

Field Documentation

sin_family

sa_family_t sockaddr_in::sin_family

Socket address family (part of struct sockaddr)

Always set to AF_INET for IPv4 addresses

Definition at line 90 of file in.h.

Referenced by dns_xfer_deliver(), pxe_udp_deliver(), start_dhcp(), and start_pxebs().

sin_flags

uint16_t sockaddr_in::sin_flags

Flags (part of struct sockaddr_tcpip)

Definition at line 92 of file in.h.

sin_port

uint16_t sockaddr_in::sin_port

TCP/IP port (part of struct sockaddr_tcpip)

Definition at line 94 of file in.h.

Referenced by pxe_udp_deliver(), start_dhcp(), and start_pxebs().

sin_scope_id

uint16_t sockaddr_in::sin_scope_id

Scope ID (part of struct sockaddr_tcpip)

For multicast addresses, this is the network device index.

Definition at line 99 of file in.h.

Referenced by ipv4_netdev(), and ipv4_tx().

sin_addr

struct in_addr sockaddr_in::sin_addr

IPv4 address.

Definition at line 101 of file in.h.

Referenced by dhcp_request_rx(), dhcp_tx(), dns_xfer_deliver(), ibft_fill_target(), ipv4_netdev(), ipv4_tx(), pxe_udp_deliver(), and start_pxebs().

pad

char sockaddr_in::pad[sizeof(struct sockaddr) -(sizeof(sa_family_t)+ sizeof(uint16_t)+ sizeof(uint16_t)+ sizeof(uint16_t)+ sizeof(struct in_addr))]

Padding.

This ensures that a struct sockaddr_in is large enough to hold a socket address for any TCP/IP address family.
