net -t struct ifreq
结构原型:
struct ifreq { #define IFHWADDRLEN 6 union { char ifrn_name[IFNAMSIZ]; } ifr_ifrn; union { struct sockaddr ifru_addr; struct sockaddr ifru_dstaddr; struct sockaddr ifru_broadaddr; struct sockaddr ifru_netmask; struct sockaddr ifru_hwaddr; short ifru_flags; int ifru_ivalue; int ifru_mtu; struct ifmap ifru_map; char ifru_slave[IFNAMSIZ]; char ifru_newname[IFNAMSIZ]; void __user * ifru_data; struct if_settings ifru_settings; } ifr_ifru; }; #define ifr_name ifr_ifrn.ifrn_name #define ifr_hwaddr ifr_ifru.ifru_hwaddr #define ifr_addr ifr_ifru.ifru_addr #define ifr_dstaddr ifr_ifru.ifru_dstaddr #define ifr_broadaddr ifr_ifru.ifru_broadaddr #define ifr_netmask ifr_ifru.ifru_netmask #define ifr_flags ifr_ifru.ifru_flags #define ifr_metric ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue #define ifr_mtu ifr_ifru.ifru_mtu #define ifr_map ifr_ifru.ifru_map #define ifr_slave ifr_ifru.ifru_slave #define ifr_data ifr_ifru.ifru_data #define ifr_ifindex ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue #define ifr_bandwidth ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue #define ifr_qlen ifr_ifru.ifru_ivalue #define ifr_newname ifr_ifru.ifru_newname #define ifr_settings ifr_ifru.ifru_settings
基本介绍:
ifreq结构定义在/usr/include/net/if.h,用来配置ip地址,激活接口,配置MTU等接口信息的。其中包含了一个接口的名 字和具体内容——(是个共用体,有可能是IP地址,广播地址,子网掩码,MAC号,MTU或其他内容)。ifreq包含在ifconf结构中。而 ifconf结构通常是用来保存所有接口的信息的。
举例说明:
在Linux系统中,ifconfig命令是通过ioctl接口与内核通信,例如,当系统管理员输入如下命令来改变接口eth0的MTU大小:
ifconfig eth0 mtu 1250
ifconfig命令首先打开一个socket,然后通过系统管理员输入的参数初始化一个数据结构,并通过ioctl调用将数据传送到内核。SIOCSIFMTU是命令标识符。
struct ifreq data;
fd = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
< ... initialize "data" ...>
err = ioctl(fd, SIOCSIFMTU, &data);
