Detailed Description

template<typename PacketTypePtr>
class isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >

Interface for managing a queue of inbound DHCP packets.

This class serves as the abstract interface for packet queue implementations which may be used by IfaceMgr to store inbound packets until they are a dequeued for processing.

Template Parameters

PacketTypePtr Type of packet the queue contains. This expected to be either isc::dhcp::Pkt4Ptr or isc::dhcp::Pkt6Ptr

Note: Derivations of this class MUST BE thread-safe.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::PacketQueue ( const std::string & queue_type )

inlineexplicit

Constructor.

Parameters

queue_type logical name of the queue implementation Typically this is assigned by the factory that creates the queue. It is the logical name used to register queue implementations.

Definition at line 57 of file packet_queue.h.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::~PacketQueue ( )

inlinevirtual

Virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual void isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::clear ( )

pure virtual

Discards all packets currently in the buffer.

Implemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual PacketTypePtr isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::dequeuePacket ( )

pure virtual

Dequeues the next packet from the queue.

Dequeues the next packet (if any) and returns it. Derivations determine how packets are dequeued.

Returns: A pointer to dequeued packet, or an empty pointer if the queue is empty.

Implemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual bool isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::empty ( ) const

pure virtual

return True if the queue is empty.

Implemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual void isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::enqueuePacket	(	PacketTypePtr	packet,
		const SocketInfo &	source
	)

pure virtual

Adds a packet to the queue.

Adds the packet to the queue. Derivations determine which packets to queue and how to queue them.

Parameters

packet	packet to enqueue
source	socket the packet came from

Implemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual data::ElementPtr isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::getInfo ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Fetches operational information about the current state of the queue.

Creates and returns an ElementPtr containing a single entry, "queue-type". Derivations are expected to call this method first and then add their own values. Since implementations may vary widely on data of interest, this is structured as an ElementPtr for broad latitude.

Returns: an ElementPtr containing elements for values of interest

Reimplemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.

Definition at line 100 of file packet_queue.h.

Referenced by isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >::getInfo(), and isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< Pkt6Ptr >::getInfoStr().

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

std::string isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::getInfoStr ( ) const

inline

Fetches a JSON string representation of queue operational info.

This method calls getInfo() and then converts that into JSON text.

Returns: string of JSON text

Definition at line 111 of file packet_queue.h.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

std::string isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::getQueueType ( )

inline

Returns: Fetches the logical name of the type of this queue.

Definition at line 119 of file packet_queue.h.

template<typename PacketTypePtr>

virtual size_t isc::dhcp::PacketQueue< PacketTypePtr >::getSize ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the current number of packets in the buffer.

Implemented in isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< PacketTypePtr >, isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt4Ptr >, and isc::dhcp::PacketQueueRing< Pkt6Ptr >.
