SetMode

Sets requested operating mode of this device to mode.

The requested mode is attached to the current client connection to the device. Because multiple clients can be attached to the same device at once, the mode with the least restrictions is the one actively put into effect into the underlying device implementation.

If the device does not support the requested mode, but supports a mode that is more open than the requested one, SetMode succeeds regardless. Otherwise, if the device only supports more restrictive modes than the one requested, SetMode returns ZX_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED.

Clients must be aware that the resource being accessed is shared, and that the device may be effectively operating at a more open level than the one that was requested (although never at one more restrictive).

request mode request mode to attach to.

GetStatusWatcher

Connects to a StatusWatcher to observe port status changes.

request watcher handle to the status watcher.
request buffer the number of status changes that the client requests to be stored by StatusWatcher. Values are capped at MAX_STATUS_BUFFER. A value of 0 or 1 causes the StatusWatcher to not keep any buffers on status changed. Clients that need to observe all changes to status (as opposed to only the current state) are encouraged to set a buffer value larger than 1, so that all edges can be observed. If StatusWatcher's internal queue is filled and new status changes occur, the oldest samples will be dropped to make room for new ones.

PortWatcher

Provides iteration over and updates for ports attached to a device.

Added: HEAD

Watch

Get the next port event.

The first N calls return DevicePortEvent.existing where N is the number of ports present on the device at the time of the watcher's creation. The next call returns DevicePortEvent.idle to indicate the end of existing ports. Subsequent calls block until a port is added (DevicePortEvent.added) or removed (DevicePortEvent.removed).

The server closes the PortWatcher channel with ZX_ERR_CANCELED if the number of unread events reaches a server-selected limit that is at least two times MAX_PORTS. Clients are encouraged to maintain a hanging call to Watch at all times to avoid triggering this condition.

Session

Represents a session with a Network device.

A session has a data plane and a control plane. The Session protocol represents the control plane of the session and the FIFOs and VMOs exchanged during the Device.OpenSession call are the data plane. Lifetime of the session is controlled by a Session protocol handle.

Sessions must attach to ports of interest to start receiving and sending data. Sessions are always created with no ports attached.

If a port is destroyed from the underlying device, it is automatically detached from the session.

Inbound traffic is dispatched to all open sessions. Devices typically operate with a single primary session, see SessionFlags.PRIMARY. Each additional open session to the same device causes data copy overhead on the device's data path.

The session is closed with an error epitaph if an invalid buffer descriptor is sent over either the tx or rx FIFOs. Invalid descriptors include: - Descriptor index larger than SessionInfo.descriptor_count. - Descriptor chains larger than MAX_DESCRIPTOR_CHAIN. - rx buffers smaller than Info.min_rx_buffer_length. - tx buffers smaller than Info.min_tx_buffer_length. - tx buffers not respecting Info.min_tx_buffer_head or Info.min_tx_buffer_tail.

Added: HEAD

Attach

Attaches the session to port.

Once attached, the session starts to receive the subscribed frames over the data FIFOs and it may send frames destined to the specified port.

request port port to subscribe to.
request rx_frames Frame types of interest on the port.

error ZX_ERR_NOT_FOUND if port is not valid.
error ZX_ERR_INVALID_ARGS if rx_frames is not a subset of the port's supported frames.
error ZX_ERR_ALREADY_BOUND if port is already attached.

Response

Name	Type
`payload`	`Session_Attach_Result`

Close

Cleanly closes a session.

This will cause the session to send a ZX_ERR_CANCELLED epitaph and proceed to close the Session channel. Clients may only assume that they own all the buffers that are currently owned by the session (sent over either the rx or tx FIFOs) once the epitaph is received. Closing the rx or tx FIFO is equivalent to calling Close.

Request

<EMPTY>

Detach

Detaches the session from port.

Once detached, the session stops receiving frames from port. Frames sent to a detached port may be returned with an error. It is not necessary to call Detach on ports that are removed from the device, doing so causes ZX_ERR_NOT_FOUND to be returned.

request port port to subscribe to.

error ZX_ERR_NOT_FOUND if the session is not currently attached to the port.

WatchDelegatedRxLease

Watchers for delegated receive wakeup leases.

Calls block until a lease is delegated by the device. If a call to WatchDelegatedRxLease is made while a previous call is blocking, the session is closed with ZX_ERR_BAD_STATE. Will never yield any values for sessions created without SessionFlags.RECEIVE_RX_POWER_LEASES.

Given a single lease is assumed sufficient to keep the system awake, the server only keeps a single lease in its buffer. If a new delegated lease becomes available and the client hasn't popped the previous one with a call to WatchDelegatedRxLease, the server drops the previously pending lease.

See DelegatedRxLease for how to handle delegated leases.

StatusWatcher

Provides a way to receive updates on port status changes.

Added: HEAD

WatchStatus

WatchStatus blocks until the port's status has changed.

The first call to WatchStatus returns immediately with the current port status, subsequent calls complete when the port status differs from the last one that was returned through this StatusWatcher.

If StatusWatcher was created with a buffer value larger than 1, WatchStatus may return a queued status change, depending on how many status changed happened since the last call to WatchStatus.

RX_OVERRUN	536870912	Device experienced a hardware rx overrun. Rx overruns are typically set by hardware controllers when a frame event was detected but the frame data couldn't be captured. Devices should clear the controller flag once this is set on an inbound frame, so future overruns can be detected and reported.
RX_VALIDATION_ERROR	1073741824	This bit is set if frame validation is performed (such as by hardware acceleration features) and fails. It's important to note that some devices may simply discard frames for which validation fails and never notify the client. Rx frames that failed validation are only transmitted to the client if the `SessionFlags::REPORT_INVALID_RX` option is selected when creating a session.
RX_ECHOED_TX	2147483648	This is an echoed tx frame, created by a tx request. Can only be set in sessions that have the `LISTEN_TX` flag.

SessionFlags strict

Type: uint16

Additional session options.

Added: HEAD

Name	Value	Description
PRIMARY	1	Attach as primary session. Sessions marked with the `PRIMARY` bit get the following different treatment: If no PRIMARY sessions are attached, the device will not serve rx frames to non-PRIMARY sessions. If there's only one PRIMARY session active, it may get a zero-copy data path from the the backing hardware, if the underlying implementation supports it.
LISTEN_TX	2	Listen for outgoing frames. `LISTEN_TX` sessions receive any outgoing frames (from all sessions) on its rx path. Can be used for snooping traffic. Sessions marked with `LISTEN_TX` may also send frames, but they should keep in mind that they'll ALWAYS receive those frames back on their rx path (no origin session filtering is performed).
REPORT_INVALID_RX	4	Receive invalid rx frames. Sessions marked with `REPORT_INVALID_RX` are interested in receiving frames that were rejected by internal device checks or payload validation performed by hardware. Due to the nature of some hardware platforms, sessions marked with `REPORT_INVALID_RX` may still not receive frames that fail validation if the hardware implementation simply drops the frame and doesn't expose it to the software stack. Sessions NOT marked with `REPORT_INVALID_RX`, in contrast, will NEVER receive an rx frame with the `RX_VALIDATION_ERROR` flag set.
RECEIVE_RX_POWER_LEASES	8	Receive rx power leases. Sessions marked with `RECEIVE_RX_POWER_LEASES` receive DelegatedRxLeases through Session.WatchDelegatedRxLease calls.
