Function Documentation

uint8_t pfwl_set_expected_flows(pfwl_state_t *state, uint32_t flows, pfwl_flows_strategy_t strategy)

Sets the number of simultaneously active flows to be expected.

Return

0 if succeeded, 1 otherwise.

Parameters

• state: A pointer to the state of the library.

• flows: The number of simultaneously active flows.

• strategy: If PFWL_FLOWS_STRATEGY_NONE, there will not be any limit to the number of simultaneously active flows. However, this could lead to slowdown when retrieving flow information. If PFWL_FLOWS_STRATEGY_SKIP, when that number of active flows is reached, if a new flow is created an error will be returned (PFWL_ERROR_MAX_FLOWS) and new flows will not be created. If PFWL_FLOWS_STRATEGY_EVICT, when when that number of active flows is reached, if a new flow is created the oldest flow will be evicted.
