Versions of this patch:
v1 - Original (missing files)
v2 - Added missing odp_buffer_inlines.h
v3 - Added missing odph_tcp.h
v4 - (mispublished as v3): Allow NULL arguments to odp_buffer_pool_create()
v5 - Correctly handle timer allocs (no blocks), add support for buf_init calls
     on allocation.

> + * their intended use and the type of metadata that is associated

> + * An ODP buffer type is identified by the
> + * odp_buffer_type_e enum. It defines the semantics that are to be
> + * attached to the buffer and defines the type of metadata that is
> + * associated with it. ODP implementations MUST support the following
> + * buffer types:
> + *
> + * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_RAW
> + * This is the “basic” buffer type
> + * which simply consists of a single fixed-sized block of contiguous
> + * memory. Buffers of this type do not support user metadata and the
> + * only built-in metadata supported for this type of buffer are those
> + * that are statically computable, such as pool and size. This type of
> + * buffer is entirely under application control and most of the buffer
> + * APIs defined in this document are not available. APIs for this
> + * type of buffer are described in this document.
> + *
> + * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_PACKET
> + * This buffer type is suitable for receiving,
> + * processing, and transmitting network packet data. Included in this
> + * type is a rich set of primitives for manipulating buffer aggregates
> + * and for storing system and user metadata. APIs for this type of
> + * buffer are described here and in the ODP Packet Management Design
> + * document.
> + *
> + * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_TIMEOUT
> + * This buffer type is suitable for
> + * representing timer timeout events. Does not support buffer
> + * aggregation but does support user metadata. APIs for this type of
> + * buffer are described here and in the ODP Timer Management Design
> + * document.
> + *
> + * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_ANY
> + * A “universal” buffer type capable of
> + * storing information needed for any other buffer type. It is not
> + * intended to be used directly, but exists for possible
> + * implementation convenience.
> + *
> + * @par Metadata
> + * Metadata is additional information relating to a
> + * buffer that is distinct from the application data normally held in
> + * the buffer. Implementations MAY choose to implement metadata as
> + * contiguous with a buffer (e.g., in an implementation-managed prefix
> + * area of the buffer) or in a physically separate metadata area
> + * efficiently accessible by the implementation using the same
> + * identifier as the buffer itself. ODP applications MUST NOT make
> + * assumptions about the addressability relationship between a buffer
> + * and its associated metadata, or between metadata items.
> + * Application use of metadata MUST only be via accessor functions.
> + *
> + * @par Note on OPTIONAL APIs
> + * Every conforming ODP implementation MUST
> + * provide implementations for each API described here. If an API is
> + * designated as OPTIONAL, this means that it is acceptable for an
> + * implementation to do nothing except return
> + * ODP_FUNCTION_NOT_AVAILABLE in response to this call. Note that this
> + * may limit the range of ODP applications supported by a given
> + * implementation since applications needing the functionality of the
> + * optional API will likely choose to deploy on other ODP platforms.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * APIs are designated as OPTIONAL under two conditions:
> + *
> + * -# The API is expected to be difficult to provide efficiently on all
> + *  platforms.
> + *
> + * -# A significant number of ODP applications are expected to exist
> + *  that will not need or use this API.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Under these circumstances, an API is designated as OPTIONAL to
> + * permit ODP implementations to be conformant while still expecting
> + * to be able to run a significant number of ODP applications.

> + * Packet data in ODP is referenced to via offsets since these reflect
> + * the logical contents and structure of a packet independent of how
> + * particular ODP implementations store that data.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * These concepts are shown in the following diagram:
> + *
> + * @image html packet.png "ODP Packet Structure" width=\textwidth

> + *
> + * @par
> + * Packet data consists of zero or more headers, followed by 0 or
> + * more bytes of payload, followed by zero or more trailers.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Packet Segments and Addressing Network SoCs use various
> + * methods and techniques to store and process packets efficiently.
> + * These vary considerably from platform to platform, so to ensure
> + * portability across them ODP adopts certain conventions for
> + * referencing packets.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * ODP APIs use a handle of type odp_packet_t to refer to packet
> + * objects. Associated with packets are various bits of system meta
> + * data that describe the packet. By referring to the meta data, ODP
> + * applications accelerate packet processing by minimizing the need to
> + * examine packet data. This is because the packet meta data is
> + * populated by parsing and classification functions that are coupled
> + * to ingress processing that occur prior to a packet being presented
> + * to the application via the ODP scheduler.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * When an ODP implementation needs to examine the contents of a
> + * packet, it requests addressability to it via a mapping API that
> + * makes the packet (or a contiguously addressable segment of it)
> + * available for coherent access by the application. While ODP
> + * applications MAY request that packets be stored in unsegmented
> + * buffer pools, not all platforms supporting ODP are able to provide
> + * contiguity guarantees for packets and as a result such requests may
> + * either fail or else result in degraded performance compared to
> + * native operation.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Instead, ODP applications SHOULD assume that the underlying
> + * implementation stores packets in segments of implementation-defined
> + * and managed size. These represent the contiguously addressable
> + * portions of a packet that the application may refer to via normal
> + * memory accesses. ODP provides APIs that allow applications to
> + * operate on packet segments in an efficient and portable manner as
> + * needed. By combining these with the meta data provided for
> + * packets, ODP applications can operate in a fully
> + * platform-independent manner while still achieving optimal
> + * performance across the range of platforms that support ODP.

> + * @par
> + * The packet meta data is set during parsing and identifies the
> + * starting offsets of the various headers contained in the packet.
> + * The packet itself is physically stored as a sequence of segments
> + * that are managed by the ODP implementation. Segment 0 is the first
> + * segment of the packet and is where the packet’s headroom and
> + * headers typically reside. Depending on the length of the packet,
> + * additional segments may be part of the packet and contain the
> + * remaining packet payload and tailroom. The application need not
> + * concern itself with segments except that when the application
> + * requires addressability to a packet it understands that
> + * addressability is provided on a per-segment basis. So, for
> + * example, if the application makes a call like
> + * odp_packet_payload_map() to obtain addressability to the packet
> + * payload, the returned seglen from that call is the number of bytes
> + * from the start of the payload that are contiguously addressable to
> + * the application from the returned payload address. This is because
> + * the following byte occupies a different segment that may be stored
> + * elsewhere. To obtain access to those bytes, the application simply
> + * requests addressability to that offset and it will be able to
> + * address the payload bytes that occupy segment 1, etc. Note that
> + * the returned seglen for any mapping call is always the lesser of
> + * the remaining packet length and the size of its containing segment.
> + * So a mapping request for segment 2, for example, would return a
> + * seglen that extends only to the end of the packet since the
> + * remaining bytes are part of the tailroom reserved for the packet
> + * and are not usable by the application until made available to it by
> + * an appropriate API call.
> + *
> + * @par Headroom and Tailroom
> + * Because data plane applications will
> + * often manipulate packets by adding or removing headers and/or
> + * trailers, ODP implementations MUST support the concepts of headroom
> + * and tailroom for packets. How implementations choose to support
> + * these concepts is unspecified by ODP.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Headroom is an area that logically prepends the start of a
> + * packet and is reserved for the insertion of additional header
> + * information to the front of a packet. Typical use of headroom
> + * might be packet encapsulation as part of tunnel operations.
> + * Tailroom is a similar area that logically follows a packet reserved
> + * for the insertion of trailer information at the end of a packet.
> + * Typical use of tailroom might be in payload manipulation or in
> + * additional checksum insertion. The idea behind headroom and
> + * tailroom is to support efficient manipulation of packet headers
> + * and/or trailers by preallocating buffer space and/or meta data to
> + * support the insertion of packet headers and/or trailers while
> + * avoiding the overhead of more general split/join buffer operations.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Note that not every application or communication protocol will
> + * need these and ODP implementations MAY impose restrictions or
> + * modifications on when and how these capabilities are used. For
> + * example, headroom MAY indicate the byte offset into a packet buffer
> + * at which packet data is received from an associated odp_pktio_t.
> + * An implementation MAY add to the requested headroom or tailroom for
> + * implementation-defined alignment or other reasons. Note also that
> + * implementations MUST NOT assume that headroom and/or tailroom is
> + * necessarily contiguous with any other segment of the packet unless
> + * the underlying buffer pool the packet has been allocated from has
> + * been explicitly defined as unsegmented. See the ODP Buffer API
> + * design for discussion of segmented vs. unsegmented buffers and
> + * their implementation models. This convention is observed
> + * automatically because every mapping call returns a corresponding
> + * seglen that tells the application the number of bytes it may
> + * reference from the address returned by that call. Applications
> + * MUST observe these limits to avoid programming errors and
> + * portability issues.
> + *
> + * @par Packet Parsing and Inflags
> + * ODP packets are intended to be
> + * processed by the ODP Classifier upon receipt. As part of its
> + * processing, the classifier parses information from the packet
> + * headers and makes this information available as system meta data so
> + * that applications using ODP do not have to reference packets or
> + * their headers directly for most processing. The set of headers
> + * supported by the ODP parse functions MUST include at minimum the
> + * following:
> + *
> + * - Layer 2: ARP, SNAP (recognition), VLAN (C-Tag and S-Tag)
> + * - Layer 3: IPv4, IPv6
> + * - Layer 4: TCP, UDP, ICMP, ICMPv6, IPsec (ESP and AH)
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Other protocols MAY be supported, however ODP v1.0 does not
> + * define APIs for referencing them.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Parsing results are stored as meta data associated with the
> + * packet. These include various precomputed offsets used for direct
> + * access to parsed headers as well as indicators of packet contents
> + * that are collectively referred to as inflags. Inflags are packet
> + * meta data that may be inspected or set via accessor functions as
> + * described below. Setters are provided to enable applications that
> + * create or modify packet headers to update these attributes
> + * efficiently. Applications that use them take responsibility for
> + * ensuring that the results are consistent. ODP itself does not
> + * validate an inflag setter to ensure that it reflects actual packet
> + * contents. Applications that wish this additional assurance should
> + * request an explicit packet reparse.
> + *
> + * @par Packet Outflags
> + * Packet transmission options are controlled by
> + * packet meta data collectively referred to as outflags. An
> + * application sets these to request various services related to
> + * packet transmission.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Note: The outflags controlling checksum offload processing are
> + * overrides. That is, they have no effect unless they are set
> + * explicitly by the application. By default, checksum offloads are
> + * controlled by the corresponding settings of the odp_pktio_t through
> + * which a packet is transmitted. The purpose of these bits is to
> + * permit this offload processing to be overridden on a per-packet
> + * basis. Note that not every implementation may support such
> + * override capabilities, which is why the setters here return a
> + * success/failure indicator.
> + *
> + * @par Packet Headroom and Tailroom Routines
> + * Data plane applications frequently manipulate the headers and trailers
> + * associated with packets. These operations involve either stripping
> + * headers or trailers from packets or inserting new headers or
> + * trailers onto them. To enable this manipulation, ODP provides the
> + * notion of headroom and tailroom, as well as a set of APIs that
> + * enable their efficient manipulation.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Headroom is a set of bytes that logically precede the start of
> + * a packet, enabling additional headers to be created that become
> + * part of the packet. Similarly, tailroom is a set of bytes that
> + * logically follow the end of a packet, enabling additional payload
> + * and/or trailers to be created that become part of the packet. Both
> + * headroom and tailroom are meta data associated with packets, and
> + * are assigned at packet creation.
> + *
> + * @par
> + * Packet headroom and tailroom is manipulated by the following
> + * routines that MUST be provided by conforming ODP implementations.
> + * These operations define push and pull operations. The convention
> + * is that push operations move away from packet data while pull
> + * operations move towards packet data. Alternately, push operations
> + * add to packet data, while pull operations remove packet data.
> + *
> + * @par

 /**

- * ODP buffer descriptor
+ * @par Buffer
+ * A buffer is an element of a buffer pool used for storing
+ * information. Buffers are referenced by an abstract handle of type
+ * odp_buffer_t. Buffers have associated buffer types that describe
+ * their intended use and the type of metadata that is associated
+ * with them. Buffers of a specific type may be referenced for
+ * processing by cores or by offload engines. Buffers are also
+ * transmitted via queues from one processing element to another.
+ *
+ * @par Buffer Types
+ * An ODP buffer type is identified by the
+ * odp_buffer_type_e enum. It defines the semantics that are to be
+ * attached to the buffer and defines the type of metadata that is
+ * associated with it. ODP implementations MUST support the following
+ * buffer types:
+ *
+ * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_RAW
+ * This is the “basic” buffer type
+ * which simply consists of a single fixed-sized block of contiguous
+ * memory. Buffers of this type do not support user metadata and the
+ * only built-in metadata supported for this type of buffer are those
+ * that are statically computable, such as pool and size. This type of
+ * buffer is entirely under application control and most of the buffer
+ * APIs defined in this document are not available. APIs for this
+ * type of buffer are described in this document.
+ *
+ * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_PACKET
+ * This buffer type is suitable for receiving,
+ * processing, and transmitting network packet data. Included in this
+ * type is a rich set of primitives for manipulating buffer aggregates
+ * and for storing system and user metadata. APIs for this type of
+ * buffer are described here and in the ODP Packet Management Design
+ * document.
+ *
+ * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_TIMEOUT
+ * This buffer type is suitable for
+ * representing timer timeout events. Does not support buffer
+ * aggregation but does support user metadata. APIs for this type of
+ * buffer are described here and in the ODP Timer Management Design
+ * document.
+ *
+ * - ODP_BUFFER_TYPE_ANY
+ * A “universal” buffer type capable of
+ * storing information needed for any other buffer type. It is not
+ * intended to be used directly, but exists for possible
+ * implementation convenience.
+ *
+ * @par Metadata
+ * Metadata is additional information relating to a
+ * buffer that is distinct from the application data normally held in
+ * the buffer. Implementations MAY choose to implement metadata as
+ * contiguous with a buffer (e.g., in an implementation-managed prefix
+ * area of the buffer) or in a physically separate metadata area
+ * efficiently accessible by the implementation using the same
+ * identifier as the buffer itself. ODP applications MUST NOT make
+ * assumptions about the addressability relationship between a buffer
+ * and its associated metadata, or between metadata items.
+ * Application use of metadata MUST only be via accessor functions.
+ *
+ * @par Note on OPTIONAL APIs
+ * Every conforming ODP implementation MUST
+ * provide implementations for each API described here. If an API is
+ * designated as OPTIONAL, this means that it is acceptable for an
+ * implementation to do nothing except return
+ * ODP_FUNCTION_NOT_AVAILABLE in response to this call. Note that this
+ * may limit the range of ODP applications supported by a given
+ * implementation since applications needing the functionality of the
+ * optional API will likely choose to deploy on other ODP platforms.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * APIs are designated as OPTIONAL under two conditions:
+ *
+ * -# The API is expected to be difficult to provide efficiently on all
+ *  platforms.
+ *
+ * -# A significant number of ODP applications are expected to exist
+ *  that will not need or use this API.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Under these circumstances, an API is designated as OPTIONAL to
+ * permit ODP implementations to be conformant while still expecting
+ * to be able to run a significant number of ODP applications.

- * ODP buffer pool
+ * @par Buffer Pools
+ * Buffers are elements of buffer pools that represent an equivalence
+ * class of buffer objects that are managed by a buffer pool manager.
+ * ODP implementations MAY support buffer pool managers implemented in
+ * hardware, software, or a combination of the two. An ODP
+ * implementation MUST support at least one buffer pool and MAY
+ * support as many as it wishes. The implementation MAY support one
+ * or more predefined buffer pools that are not explicitly allocated
+ * by an ODP application. It SHOULD also support application creation
+ * of buffer pools via the odp_buffer_pool_create() API, however it
+ * MAY restrict the types of buffers that can be so created.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Buffer pools are represented by the abstract type odp_buffer_pool_t
+ * that is returned by buffer pool creation and lookup/enumeration
+ * routines. Applications refer to buffer pools via a name of
+ * implementation-defined maximum length that MUST be a minimummap of
+ * eight characters in length and MAY be longer. It is RECOMMENDED
+ * that 32 character buffer pool names be supported to provide
+ * application naming flexibility. The supported maximum length of
+ * buffer pool names is exposed via the ODP_BUFFER_POOL_NAME_LEN
+ * predefined implementation limit.
+ *
+ * @par Segmented vs. Unsegmented Buffer Pools
+ * By default, the buffers in
+ * ODP buffer pools are logical buffers that support transparent
+ * segmentation managed by ODP on behalf of the application and have a
+ * rich set of associated semantics as described here.
+ * ODP_BUFFER_OPTS_UNSEGMENTED indicates that the buf_size specified
+ * for the pool should be regarded as a fixed buffer size for all pool
+ * elements and that segmentation support is not needed for the pool.
+ * This MAY result in greater efficiency on some implementations. For
+ * packet processing, a typical use of unsegmented pools would be in
+ * conjunction with classification rules that sort packets into
+ * different pools based on their lengths, thus ensuring that each
+ * packet occupies a single segment within an appropriately-sized
+ * buffer.

+ * classifier. See below for a discussion of this meta data and the
+ * accessor functions provided for application reference to them.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Occasionally an application may originate a packet itself,
+ * either de novo or by deriving it from an existing packet, and APIs
+ * are provided to assist in these cases as well. Application-created
+ * packets can be recycled back through a loopback interface to reparse
+ * and reclassify them, or the application can explicitly re-invoke the
+ * parser or do its own parsing as desired. This can also occur as a
+ * result of packet decryption or decapsulation when dealing with
+ * ingress tunnels. See the ODP classification design document for
+ * further details. Additionally, the meta data set as a result of
+ * parsing MAY be directly set by the application as needed.
+ *
+ * @par Packet Structure and Concepts
+ * A packet consists of a sequence
+ * of octets conforming to an architected format, such as Ethernet,
+ * that can be received and transmitted via the ODP pktio abstraction.
+ * Packets have a length, which is the number of bytes in the packet.
+ * Packet data in ODP is referenced to via offsets since these reflect
+ * the logical contents and structure of a packet independent of how
+ * particular ODP implementations store that data.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * These concepts are shown in the following diagram:
+ *
+ * @image html packet.png "ODP Packet Structure" width=\textwidth
+ * @image latex packet.eps "ODP Packet Structure" width=\textwidth
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Packet data consists of zero or more headers, followed by 0 or
+ * more bytes of payload, followed by zero or more trailers.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Packet Segments and Addressing Network SoCs use various
+ * methods and techniques to store and process packets efficiently.
+ * These vary considerably from platform to platform, so to ensure
+ * portability across them ODP adopts certain conventions for
+ * referencing packets.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * ODP APIs use a handle of type odp_packet_t to refer to packet
+ * objects. Associated with packets are various bits of system meta
+ * data that describe the packet. By referring to the meta data, ODP
+ * applications accelerate packet processing by minimizing the need to
+ * examine packet data. This is because the packet meta data is
+ * populated by parsing and classification functions that are coupled
+ * to ingress processing that occur prior to a packet being presented
+ * to the application via the ODP scheduler.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * When an ODP implementation needs to examine the contents of a
+ * packet, it requests addressability to it via a mapping API that
+ * makes the packet (or a contiguously addressable segment of it)
+ * available for coherent access by the application. While ODP
+ * applications MAY request that packets be stored in unsegmented
+ * buffer pools, not all platforms supporting ODP are able to provide
+ * contiguity guarantees for packets and as a result such requests may
+ * either fail or else result in degraded performance compared to
+ * native operation.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Instead, ODP applications SHOULD assume that the underlying
+ * implementation stores packets in segments of implementation-defined
+ * and managed size. These represent the contiguously addressable
+ * portions of a packet that the application may refer to via normal
+ * memory accesses. ODP provides APIs that allow applications to
+ * operate on packet segments in an efficient and portable manner as
+ * needed. By combining these with the meta data provided for
+ * packets, ODP applications can operate in a fully
+ * platform-independent manner while still achieving optimal
+ * performance across the range of platforms that support ODP.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * The use of segments for packet addressing and their
+ * relationship to meta data is shown in this diagram:
+ *
+ * @image html segments.png "ODP Packet Segmentation Structure" width=\textwidth
+ * @image latex segments.eps "ODP Packet Segmentation Structure" width=\textwidth
+ *
+ * @par
+ * The packet meta data is set during parsing and identifies the
+ * starting offsets of the various headers contained in the packet.
+ * The packet itself is physically stored as a sequence of segments
+ * that are managed by the ODP implementation. Segment 0 is the first
+ * segment of the packet and is where the packet’s headroom and
+ * headers typically reside. Depending on the length of the packet,
+ * additional segments may be part of the packet and contain the
+ * remaining packet payload and tailroom. The application need not
+ * concern itself with segments except that when the application
+ * requires addressability to a packet it understands that
+ * addressability is provided on a per-segment basis. So, for
+ * example, if the application makes a call like
+ * odp_packet_payload_map() to obtain addressability to the packet
+ * payload, the returned seglen from that call is the number of bytes
+ * from the start of the payload that are contiguously addressable to
+ * the application from the returned payload address. This is because
+ * the following byte occupies a different segment that may be stored
+ * elsewhere. To obtain access to those bytes, the application simply
+ * requests addressability to that offset and it will be able to
+ * address the payload bytes that occupy segment 1, etc. Note that
+ * the returned seglen for any mapping call is always the lesser of
+ * the remaining packet length and the size of its containing segment.
+ * So a mapping request for segment 2, for example, would return a
+ * seglen that extends only to the end of the packet since the
+ * remaining bytes are part of the tailroom reserved for the packet
+ * and are not usable by the application until made available to it by
+ * an appropriate API call.
+ *
+ * @par Headroom and Tailroom
+ * Because data plane applications will
+ * often manipulate packets by adding or removing headers and/or
+ * trailers, ODP implementations MUST support the concepts of headroom
+ * and tailroom for packets. How implementations choose to support
+ * these concepts is unspecified by ODP.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Headroom is an area that logically prepends the start of a
+ * packet and is reserved for the insertion of additional header
+ * information to the front of a packet. Typical use of headroom
+ * might be packet encapsulation as part of tunnel operations.
+ * Tailroom is a similar area that logically follows a packet reserved
+ * for the insertion of trailer information at the end of a packet.
+ * Typical use of tailroom might be in payload manipulation or in
+ * additional checksum insertion. The idea behind headroom and
+ * tailroom is to support efficient manipulation of packet headers
+ * and/or trailers by preallocating buffer space and/or meta data to
+ * support the insertion of packet headers and/or trailers while
+ * avoiding the overhead of more general split/join buffer operations.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Note that not every application or communication protocol will
+ * need these and ODP implementations MAY impose restrictions or
+ * modifications on when and how these capabilities are used. For
+ * example, headroom MAY indicate the byte offset into a packet buffer
+ * at which packet data is received from an associated odp_pktio_t.
+ * An implementation MAY add to the requested headroom or tailroom for
+ * implementation-defined alignment or other reasons. Note also that
+ * implementations MUST NOT assume that headroom and/or tailroom is
+ * necessarily contiguous with any other segment of the packet unless
+ * the underlying buffer pool the packet has been allocated from has
+ * been explicitly defined as unsegmented. See the ODP Buffer API
+ * design for discussion of segmented vs. unsegmented buffers and
+ * their implementation models. This convention is observed
+ * automatically because every mapping call returns a corresponding
+ * seglen that tells the application the number of bytes it may
+ * reference from the address returned by that call. Applications
+ * MUST observe these limits to avoid programming errors and
+ * portability issues.
+ *
+ * @par Packet Parsing and Inflags
+ * ODP packets are intended to be
+ * processed by the ODP Classifier upon receipt. As part of its
+ * processing, the classifier parses information from the packet
+ * headers and makes this information available as system meta data so
+ * that applications using ODP do not have to reference packets or
+ * their headers directly for most processing. The set of headers
+ * supported by the ODP parse functions MUST include at minimum the
+ * following:
+ *
+ * - Layer 2: ARP, SNAP (recognition), VLAN (C-Tag and S-Tag)
+ * - Layer 3: IPv4, IPv6
+ * - Layer 4: TCP, UDP, ICMP, ICMPv6, IPsec (ESP and AH)
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Other protocols MAY be supported, however ODP v1.0 does not
+ * define APIs for referencing them.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Parsing results are stored as meta data associated with the
+ * packet. These include various precomputed offsets used for direct
+ * access to parsed headers as well as indicators of packet contents
+ * that are collectively referred to as inflags. Inflags are packet
+ * meta data that may be inspected or set via accessor functions as
+ * described below. Setters are provided to enable applications that
+ * create or modify packet headers to update these attributes
+ * efficiently. Applications that use them take responsibility for
+ * ensuring that the results are consistent. ODP itself does not
+ * validate an inflag setter to ensure that it reflects actual packet
+ * contents. Applications that wish this additional assurance should
+ * request an explicit packet reparse.
+ *
+ * @par Packet Outflags
+ * Packet transmission options are controlled by
+ * packet meta data collectively referred to as outflags. An
+ * application sets these to request various services related to
+ * packet transmission.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Note: The outflags controlling checksum offload processing are
+ * overrides. That is, they have no effect unless they are set
+ * explicitly by the application. By default, checksum offloads are
+ * controlled by the corresponding settings of the odp_pktio_t through
+ * which a packet is transmitted. The purpose of these bits is to
+ * permit this offload processing to be overridden on a per-packet
+ * basis. Note that not every implementation may support such
+ * override capabilities, which is why the setters here return a
+ * success/failure indicator.
+ *
+ * @par Packet Headroom and Tailroom Routines
+ * Data plane applications frequently manipulate the headers and trailers
+ * associated with packets. These operations involve either stripping
+ * headers or trailers from packets or inserting new headers or
+ * trailers onto them. To enable this manipulation, ODP provides the
+ * notion of headroom and tailroom, as well as a set of APIs that
+ * enable their efficient manipulation.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Headroom is a set of bytes that logically precede the start of
+ * a packet, enabling additional headers to be created that become
+ * part of the packet. Similarly, tailroom is a set of bytes that
+ * logically follow the end of a packet, enabling additional payload
+ * and/or trailers to be created that become part of the packet. Both
+ * headroom and tailroom are meta data associated with packets, and
+ * are assigned at packet creation.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * Packet headroom and tailroom is manipulated by the following
+ * routines that MUST be provided by conforming ODP implementations.
+ * These operations define push and pull operations. The convention
+ * is that push operations move away from packet data while pull
+ * operations move towards packet data. Alternately, push operations
+ * add to packet data, while pull operations remove packet data.
+ *
+ * @par
+ * These concepts are shown as operations on the packet diagram
+ * we saw previously:
