Detailed Description

network packets

Each network packet contains a byte buffer, a set of byte tags, a set of packet tags, and metadata.

  • The byte buffer stores the serialized content of the headers and trailers added to a packet. The serialized representation of these headers is expected to match that of real network packets bit for bit (although nothing forces you to do this) which means that the content of a packet buffer is expected to be that of a real packet.
  • The metadata describes the type of the headers and trailers which were serialized in the byte buffer. The maintenance of metadata is optional and disabled by default. To enable it, you must call Packet::EnablePrinting and this will allow you to get non-empty output from Packet::Print. If you wish to only enable checking of metadata, and do not need any printing capability, you can call Packet::EnableChecking: its runtime cost is lower than Packet::EnablePrinting.
  • The set of tags contain simulation-specific information which cannot be stored in the packet byte buffer because the protocol headers or trailers have no standard-conformant field for this information. So-called 'byte' tags are used to tag a subset of the bytes in the packet byte buffer while 'packet' tags are used to tag the packet itself. The main difference between these two kinds of tags is what happens when packets are copied, fragmented, and reassembled: 'byte' tags follow bytes while 'packet' tags follow packets. Another important difference between these two kinds of tags is that byte tags cannot be removed and are expected to be written once, and read many times, while packet tags are expected to be written once, read many times, and removed exactly once. An example of a 'byte' tag is a FlowIdTag which contains a flow id and is set by the application generating traffic. An example of a 'packet' tag is a cross-layer qos class id set by an application and processed by a lower-level MAC layer.

Implementing a new type of Header or Trailer for a new protocol is pretty easy and is a matter of creating a subclass of the ns3::Header or of the ns3::Trailer base class, and implementing the methods described in their respective API documentation.

Implementing a new type of Tag requires roughly the same amount of work and this work is described in the ns3::Tag API documentation.

The performance aspects copy-on-write semantics of the Packet API are discussed in Packet Performance

ns3::Packet::Packet ( uint32_t  size)

Create a packet with a zero-filled payload.

The memory necessary for the payload is not allocated: it will be allocated at any later point if you attempt to fragment this packet or to access the zero-filled bytes. The packet is allocated with a new uid (as returned by getUid).

Parameters
sizethe size of the zero-filled payload

References m_globalUid.

ns3::Packet::Packet ( uint8_t const *  buffer,
uint32_t  size,
bool  magic 
)

Create a new packet from the serialized buffer.

This new packet is identical to the serialized packet contained in the buffer and is magically deserialized for you

Parameters
bufferthe serialized packet to be created
sizethe size of the packet for deserialization
magicallows packet deserialization; asserts when set to false

void ns3::Packet::AddByteTag ( const Tag tag) const

Tag each byte included in this packet with a new byte tag.

Parameters
tagthe new tag to add to this packet

Note that adding a tag is a const operation which is pretty un-intuitive. The rationale is that the content and behavior of a packet is not changed when a tag is added to a packet: any code which was not aware of the new tag is going to work just the same if the new tag is added. The real reason why adding a tag was made a const operation is to allow a trace sink which gets a packet to tag the packet, even if the packet is const (and most trace sources should use const packets because it would be totally evil to allow a trace sink to modify the content of a packet).

The packet metadata is also used to perform extensive sanity checks at runtime when performing operations on a Packet.

For example, this metadata is used to verify that when you remove a header from a packet, this same header was actually present at the front of the packet. These errors will be detected and will abort the program.

By default, packets do not keep around enough metadata to perform the operations requested by the Print methods.

uint64_t ns3::Packet::GetUid ( void  ) const

A packet is allocated a new uid when it is created empty or with zero-filled payload.

Note: This uid is an internal uid and cannot be counted on to provide an accurate counter of how many "simulated packets" of a particular protocol are in the system. It is not trivial to make this uid into such a counter, because of questions such as what should the uid be when the packet is sent over broadcast media, or when fragmentation occurs. If a user wants to trace actual packet counts, he or she should look at e.g. the IP ID field or transport sequence numbers, or other packet or frame counters at other protocol layers.

Returns
an integer identifier which uniquely identifies this packet.
