From 3b46cba8f4e909bc363403c6c92215159abb2f11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Damjan Marion Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2017 21:13:45 +0100 Subject: Plugin infrastructure improvements This patch replaces requirement for vlib_plugin_register function in the plugin so file and introduces new macro: VLIB_PLUGIN_REGISTER () = { .version = "version string", .version_required = "requred version", .default_disabled = 1, .early_init = "early_init_function_name", }; Plugin will nor be loaded if .default_disabled is set to 1 unless explicitely enabled in startup.conf. If .verstion_required is set, plugin will not be loaded if there is version mismatch between plugin and vpp. This can be bypassed by setting "skip-version-check" for specific plugin. If .early-init string is present, plugin loader will try to resolve this specific symbol in the plugin namespace and make a function call. Following startup.conf configuration is added: plugins { path /path/to/plugin/directory plugin ila_plugin.so { enable skip-version-check } plugin acl_plugin.so { disable } } Change-Id: I706c691dd34d94ffe9e02b59831af8859a95f061 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion --- src/vnet/plugin/plugin.h | 9 +-------- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 8 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/vnet/plugin') diff --git a/src/vnet/plugin/plugin.h b/src/vnet/plugin/plugin.h index a14a5932b50..6e1a3264654 100644 --- a/src/vnet/plugin/plugin.h +++ b/src/vnet/plugin/plugin.h @@ -20,13 +20,6 @@ #include #include #include - -/* Pointers to Genuine Vnet data structures handed to plugin .dll's */ -typedef struct { - vnet_main_t * vnet_main; - ethernet_main_t * ethernet_main; -} vnet_plugin_handoff_t; - -void * vnet_get_handoff_structure (void); +#include #endif /* included_vnet_plugin_h */ -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
