While ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP_HASH`` +is backed by a hash table that uses a key to lookup a reference to a net device. +The user provides either <``key``/ ``ifindex``> or <``key``/ ``struct bpf_devmap_val``> +pairs to update the maps with new net devices. + +.. note:: + - The key to a hash map doesn't have to be an ``ifindex``. + - While ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP_HASH`` allows for densely packing the net devices + it comes at the cost of a hash of the key when performing a look up. + +The setup and packet enqueue/send code is shared between the two types of +devmap; only the lookup and insertion is different. + +Usage +===== +Kernel BPF +---------- +.. c:function:: + long bpf_redirect_map(struct bpf_map *map, u32 key, u64 flags) + +Redirect the packet to the endpoint referenced by ``map`` at index ``key``. +For ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP`` and ``BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP_HASH`` this map contains +references to net devices (for forwarding packets through other ports). + +The lower two bits of *flags* are used as the return code if the map lookup +fails. This is so that the return value can be one of the XDP program return +codes up to ``XDP_TX``, as chosen by the caller. The higher bits of ``flags`` +can be set to ``BPF_F_BROADCAST`` or ``BPF_F_EXCLUDE_INGRESS`` as defined +below. + +With ``BPF_F_BROADCAST`` the packet will be broadcast to all the interfaces +in the map, with ``BPF_F_EXCLUDE_INGRESS`` the ingress interface will be excluded +from the broadcast. + +.. note:: + - The key is ignored if BPF_F_BROADCAST is set. + - The broadcast feature can also be used to implement multicast forwarding: + simply create multiple DEVMAPs, each one corresponding to a single multicast group. + +This helper will return ``XDP_REDIRECT`` on success, or the value of the two +lower bits of the ``flags`` argument if the map lookup fails. + +More information about redirection can be found :doc:`redirect` + +.. c:function:: + void *bpf_map_lookup_elem(struct bpf_map *map, const void *key) + +Net device entries can be retrieved using the ``bpf_map_lookup_elem()`` +helper. + +Userspace +--------- +.. note:: + DEVMAP entries can only be updated/deleted from user space and not + from an eBPF program.

Programs are run after ``XDP_REDIRECT`` and have + access to both Rx device and Tx device. The program associated with the ``fd`` + must have type XDP with expected attach type ``xdp_devmap``. + When a program is associated with a device index, the program is run on an + ``XDP_REDIRECT`` and before the buffer is added to the per-cpu queue.
