	// ReassembleTimeout is the time a packet stays in the reassembly
	// system before being evicted.
	// As per RFC 791 section 3.2:
	//   The current recommendation for the initial timer setting is 15 seconds.
	//   This may be changed as experience with this protocol accumulates.
	//
	// Considering that it is an old recommendation, we use the same reassembly
	// timeout that linux defines, which is 30 seconds:
	// https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/47ec5303d73ea344e84f46660fff693c57641386/include/net/ip.h#L138

	// MaxTotalSize is maximum size that can be encoded in the 16-bit
	// TotalLength field of the ipv4 header.
	MaxTotalSize = 0xffff

Functions

func NewProtocol

func NewProtocol(s *stack.Stack) stack.NetworkProtocol

NewProtocol is equivalent to NewProtocolWithOptions with an empty Options.

func NewProtocolWithOptions

func NewProtocolWithOptions(opts Options) stack.NetworkProtocolFactory

NewProtocolWithOptions returns an IPv4 network protocol.

Types

type IGMPOptions

type IGMPOptions struct {
	// Enabled indicates whether IGMP will be performed.
	//
	// When enabled, IGMP may transmit IGMP report and leave messages when
	// joining and leaving multicast groups respectively, and handle incoming
	// IGMP packets.
	//
	// This field is ignored and is always assumed to be false for interfaces
	// without neighbouring nodes (e.g. loopback).
	Enabled bool
}

IGMPOptions holds options for IGMP.

type Options

type Options struct {
	// IGMP holds options for IGMP.
	IGMP IGMPOptions

	// AllowExternalLoopbackTraffic indicates that inbound loopback packets (i.e.
	// martian loopback packets) should be accepted.
	AllowExternalLoopbackTraffic bool
}

Options holds options to configure a new protocol.

type Stats

type Stats struct {
	// IP holds IPv4 statistics.
	IP tcpip.IPStats

	// IGMP holds IGMP statistics.
	IGMP tcpip.IGMPStats

	// ICMP holds ICMPv4 statistics.
	ICMP tcpip.ICMPv4Stats
}

Stats holds statistics related to the IPv4 protocol family.

func (*Stats) IPStats

func (s *Stats) IPStats() *tcpip.IPStats

IPStats implements stack.IPNetworkEndointStats

func (*Stats) IsNetworkEndpointStats

func (*Stats) IsNetworkEndpointStats()

IsNetworkEndpointStats implements stack.NetworkEndpointStats.
