[PATCH v7] ip_frag: add IPv4 options fragment and test data

[Huichao Cai]

Hi,Stephen


There are some things I don't quite understand.Hope you can answer that.
This will help me avoid similar errors in subsequent patch submissions.Thanks!


There are places where rte_memcpy functions are used：
============================================
In test_ipfrag.c：
from func test_get_ipv4_opt: 
rte_memcpy(expected_opt->data,expected_first_frag_ipv4_opts_copied,sizeof(expected_first_frag_ipv4_opts_copied));
rte_memcpy(expected_opt>data,expected_first_frag_ipv4_opts_nocopied,sizeof(expected_first_frag_ipv4_opts_nocopied));
rte_memcpy(expected_opt->data,expected_sub_frag_ipv4_opts_copied,sizeof(expected_sub_frag_ipv4_opts_copied));
rte_memcpy(expected_opt->data,expected_sub_frag_ipv4_opts_nocopied,sizeof(expected_sub_frag_ipv4_opts_nocopied));
from func v4_allocate_packet_of:
rte_memcpy(hdr + 1, opt.data, opt.len);
from func test_get_frag_opt:
rte_memcpy(opt->data, iph_opt, opt_len);


In rte_ipv4_fragmentation.c:
from func v4_allocate_packet_of:
rte_memcpy(dst, src, header_len);
from func __create_ipopt_frag_hdr:

rte_memcpy(ipopt_frag_hdr, iph, sizeof(struct rte_ipv4_hdr));
rte_memcpy(ipopt_frag_hdr + ipopt_len, p_opt, p_opt[1]);
============================================


These are the compilation errors:
============================================
test_ipfrag.c:230
In test_ipfrag.c：
from func v4_allocate_packet_of:
rte_memcpy(hdr + 1, opt.data, opt.len);
rte_ipv4_fragmentation.c:68
In rte_ipv4_fragmentation.c:
from func __create_ipopt_frag_hdr:
rte_memcpy(ipopt_frag_hdr + ipopt_len, p_opt, p_opt[1]);
============================================


1.Do I need to replace all rte_memcpy with memcpy or only the two rte_memcpy that compile the error are replaced by memcpy?
2.
>Since the copies will all be short why bother using rte_memcpy() all over
>the place.  Especially in the test code, just use memcpy().
For example,in app/test-pmd/cmdline.c:from func cmd_set_vxlan_parsed:rte_memcpy(vxlan_encap_conf.vni, &id.vni[1], 3);Why this place can be used rte_memcpy?
3.For example, how such a compilation error occurs:
../app/test/test_ipfrag.c:57:17: note: at offset [5, 40] into object‘data’ of size 40
4.Under what circumstances can we use rte_memcpy?
