Detailed Description

Per-packet callout handle.

An object of this class is associated with every packet (or request) processed by the server. It forms the principle means of passing data between the server and the user-library callouts.

The class allows access to the following information:

Arguments. When the callouts associated with a hook are called, they are passed information by the server (and can return information to it) through name/value pairs. Each of these pairs is an argument and the information is accessed through the {get,set}Argument() methods.
Per-packet context. Each packet has a context associated with it, this context being on a per-library basis. In other words, As a packet passes through the callouts associated with a given library, the callouts can associate and retrieve information with the packet. The per-library nature of the context means that the callouts within a given library can pass packet-specific information between one another, but they cannot pass information to callous within another library. Typically such context is created in the "context_create" callout and destroyed in the "context_destroy" callout. The information is accessed through the {get,set}Context() methods.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef std::map<int, ElementCollection> isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::ContextCollection

Typedef to allow abbreviations in specifications when accessing context.

The ElementCollection is the name/value collection for a particular context. The "int" corresponds to the index of an associated library - there is a 1:1 correspondence between libraries and a name.value collection.

The collection of contexts is stored in a map, as not every library will require creation of a context associated with each packet. In addition, the structure is more flexible in that the size does not need to be set when the CalloutHandle is constructed.

Definition at line 108 of file callout_handle.h.

typedef std::map<std::string, boost::any> isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::ElementCollection

Typedef to allow abbreviation of iterator specification in methods.

The std::string is the argument name and the "boost::any" is the corresponding value associated with it.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::CalloutNextStep

Specifies allowed next steps.

Those values are used to designate the next step in packet processing. They are set by hook callouts and read by the Kea server. See setStatus for detailed description of each value.

Enumerator
NEXT_STEP_CONTINUE	continue normally
NEXT_STEP_SKIP	skip the next processing step
NEXT_STEP_DROP	drop the packet
NEXT_STEP_PARK	park the packet

Definition at line 85 of file callout_handle.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::CalloutHandle	(	const boost::shared_ptr< CalloutManager > &	manager,
		const boost::shared_ptr< LibraryManagerCollection > &	lmcoll = `boost::shared_ptr<LibraryManagerCollection>()`
	)

Constructor.

Creates the object and calls the callouts on the "context_create" hook.

Of the two arguments passed, only the pointer to the callout manager is actively used. The second argument, the pointer to the library manager collection, is used for lifetime control: after use, the callout handle may contain pointers to memory allocated by the loaded libraries. The used of a shared pointer to the collection of library managers means that the libraries that could have allocated memory in a callout handle will not be unloaded until all such handles have been destroyed. This issue is discussed in more detail in the documentation for isc::hooks::LibraryManager.

Parameters

manager	Pointer to the callout manager object.
lmcoll	Pointer to the library manager collection. This has a null default for testing purposes.

isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::~CalloutHandle ( )

Destructor.

Calls the context_destroy callback to release any per-packet context. It also clears stored data to avoid problems during member destruction.

void isc::hooks::CalloutHandle::setStatus ( const CalloutNextStep next )

inline

Sets the next processing step.

This method is used by the callouts to determine the next step in processing. This method replaces former setSkip() method that allowed only two values.

Currently there are three possible value allowed: NEXT_STEP_CONTINUE - tells the server to continue processing as usual (equivalent of previous setSkip(false) )

NEXT_STEP_SKIP - tells the server to skip the processing. Exact meaning is hook specific. See hook documentation for details. (equivalent of previous setSkip(true))

NEXT_STEP_DROP - tells the server to unconditionally drop the packet and do not process it further.

NEXT_STEP_PARK - tells the server to "park" the packet. The packet will wait in the queue for being unparked, e.g. as a result of completion of the asynchronous performed by the hooks library operation.

This variable is interrogated by the server to see if the remaining callouts associated with the current hook should be bypassed.

Parameters

next	New value of the next step status.
