IPv6-Route - Routing Header for IPv6

pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.protocol contains IPv6_Route only, which implements the extractor for Routing Header for IPv6 (IPv6-Route) [*], whose structure is:

Octets	Bits	Name	Description
0	0	route.next	Next Header
1	8	route.length	Header Extension Length
2	16	route.type	Routing Type
3	24	route.seg_left	Segments Left
4	32	route.data	Type-Specific Data

class pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.protocol.IPv6_Route(file=None, length=None, **kwargs)

Bases: IPv6_Ext[IPv6_Route, IPv6_Route]

This class implements Routing Header for IPv6.

This class parses the following Routing Header for IPv6 routing data types, which are registered in the self.__routing__ attribute:

Routing Code	Data Parser	Data Constructor
Source_Route	_read_data_type_src()	_make_data_type_src()
Type_2_Routing_Header	_read_data_type_2()	_make_data_type_2()
RPL_Source_Route_Header	_read_data_type_rpl()	_make_data_type_rpl()

Changed in version 1.3.4: length, and the length field of the parsed data model, is the header’s size in octets rather than the raw Hdr Ext Len value (#218).

Changed in version 1.5.0:

• Hdr Ext Len is in 8-octet units both on read and on build (#487).

• The RPL fixed area is sized at 4 octets, per RFC 6554 (#564).

• A bool given as an address raises FieldValueError (#540).

• make() takes data as bytes for every routing type (#1236), and an RPL source route rebuilds byte for byte, its address compression and a truncated address list included (#1456, #1457).

• A rebuild keeps the reserved bits of an RPL source route (#1235), and the reserved octets of a Source Route or Type 2 header and the Pad octets of an RPL one as captured (#1223).

Changed in version 1.6.0:

• make() and the RPL source route maker, given a value a fixed-width field cannot carry – negative, too wide, or a bool for a field wider than one bit – raise ProtocolError, rather than writing a different value or raising another exception (#2614).

• The Source Route and Type 2 makers raise it for reserved octets that are not four, rather than padding or cutting them (#2676).

• Each enumeration field of make(), next and type, takes a member or an int code, resolved with the enumeration’s get; a name, a bool, or a code that does not fit in one octet raises ProtocolError, rather than resolving against an enumeration inferred from the caller’s frame or writing a different value (#2594).

Removed in version 1.6.0: The next_default, next_namespace, next_reversed, type_default, type_namespace and type_reversed arguments of make(); resolve a name with resolve_index() first (#2594).

__routing__: DefaultDict[Routing | int, str | tuple[Callable[[RoutingType, IPv6_Route], IPv6_Route], Callable[[Routing, IPv6_Route | None, IPv6Address | None, Any], RoutingType]]]

Type code to method mapping. A str value names the methods _read_data_type_${name} and _make_data_type_${name}, falling back to _read_data_type_none / _make_data_type_none when they do not exist; any other value is a (parser, constructor) pair of callables.

Parameters:

• length (int | None) – Length of packet data.

• extension (bool) – If the packet is used as an IPv6 extension header.

• **kwargs (Any) – Arbitrary keyword arguments.

Return type:

IPv6_Route

Returns:

Parsed packet data.

make(dst=None, next=TransType.UDP, type=Routing.Source_Route, seg_left=0, data=b'\x00\x00\x00\x00', hdr_ext_len=None, payload=b'', **kwargs)

Make (construct) packet data.

Parameters:

• dst (IPv6Address | str | int | bytes | None) – Destination address.

• next (TransType | int) – Next header type.

• type (Routing | int) – Routing type.

• seg_left (int) – Segments left.

• data (bytes | IPv6_Route | RoutingType | dict[str, Any]) – Routing data.

• hdr_ext_len (int | None) – Hdr Ext Len field value; computed from data when omitted.

• payload (ProtocolBase | Schema | bytes) – Payload of current instance.

• **kwargs (Any) – Arbitrary keyword arguments.

Return type:

IPv6_Route

Returns:

Constructed packet data.

Raises:

• FieldValueError – If dst is a bool (see parse_ip_address()) and data is a dict or a data model; dst is not read for any other data.

• ProtocolError – If next or type is a name, a bool, or a member or code that does not fit in one octet; if data is bytes that do not parse as the routing data of type, or is of none of the accepted types; or if seg_left, or hdr_ext_len or the Hdr Ext Len computed from data, does not fit in one octet.

Changed in version 1.5.0: Takes hdr_ext_len ahead of payload (#1457), which shifts a positional payload.

classmethod register_routing(code, meth)

Register a routing data parser.

Parameters:

• code (Routing) – IPv6-Route data type code.

• meth (str | tuple[Callable[[RoutingType, IPv6_Route], IPv6_Route], Callable[[Routing, IPv6_Route | None, IPv6Address | None, Any], RoutingType]]) – Name X of the _read_data_type_X and _make_data_type_X methods, or a (parser, constructor) pair of callables, see __routing__.

Warns:

RegistryWarning – If a different entry is already registered for code; it is overwritten. Handing back the entry already stored, or one equal to it, is a silent no-op. The entry code shipped with is accepted like any other, so an override can be undone (#1362, #1363).

classmethod id()

Index ID of the protocol.

Return type:

tuple[Literal['IPv6_Route']]

Returns:

Index ID of the protocol.

__post_init__(file=None, length=None, *, extension=False, **kwargs)

Post initialisation hook.

Overloads:

• file (IO[bytes] | bytes), length (int | None) = ..., *, extension (bool) = ..., src_ip (IPv6Address | None) = ..., dst_ip (IPv6Address | None) = ..., **kwargs (Any) → None

• **kwargs (Any) → None

Parameters:

• file (IO[bytes] | bytes | None) – Source packet stream.

• length (int | None) – Length of packet data.

• extension (bool) – If the protocol is used as an IPv6 extension header.

• src_ip – source IP address

• dst_ip – destination IP address

• **kwargs (Any) – Arbitrary keyword arguments.

Note

src_ip and dst_ip are declared only in the @overload stub above, which types them as optional keyword parameters. The runtime accepts them through **kwargs without defaulting them. The discrepancy with the implementation signature is deliberate (#505).

For construction arguments, please refer to self.make.

classmethod __index__()

Numeral registry index of the protocol.

Return type:

TransType

Returns:

Numeral registry index of the protocol in IANA.

classmethod _make_data(data)

Create key-value pairs from data for protocol construction.

Parameters:

data (IPv6_Route) – protocol data

Return type:

dict[str, Any]

Returns:

Key-value pairs for protocol construction.

static _make_hdr_ext_len(data_length)

Compute Hdr Ext Len for a type-specific data payload of data_length octets.

Per RFC 8200 Section 4.4, Hdr Ext Len is the length of the Routing header in 8-octet units, not including the first 8 octets. The fixed part (next/length/type/seg_left) is 4 octets, so the on-the-wire header is 4 + data_length octets; equating that to 8 + 8 * hdr_ext_len gives hdr_ext_len = (data_length - 4) / 8. ipv6_route_data_length() is the inverse, used on the read side.

This is the only place Hdr Ext Len is computed on the write side: separate per-branch copies in make() drift apart, so keep one helper. Do NOT “simplify” the - 4 / / 8 away: the units either side differ (octets vs. 8-octet units), and dropping the offset silently reinterprets the field.

Parameters:

data_length (int) – packed length, in octets, of the type-specific data (i.e. len(data_val.pack()) for a Schema-based payload, or the padded raw bytes length for the unknown/raw-bytes case).

Return type:

int

Returns:

The Hdr Ext Len field value.

_read_data_type_none(schema, *, header)

class pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.schema.RPL(cmpr=NO_VALUE, pad=NO_VALUE, addresses=NO_VALUE, padding=NO_VALUE, *, __packet__=None, **kwargs)

Bases: RoutingType

Header schema for IPv6-Route RPL routing data.

Removed in version 1.5.0: cmpr_i and cmpr_e, which are the keys of cmpr (#1456).

cmpr: CmprInfo = <BitField cmpr>

CmprI and CmprE – two 4-bit counts sharing one octet.

NOTE: RFC 6554 Section 3 gives each as a “4-bit unsigned integer”, the high and low nibble of one octet. With pad – Pad (4 bits) and Reserved (20 bits) – they form the 32-bit word that section draws; the split falls on the octet boundary between CmprE and Pad.

pad: PadInfo = <BitField pad>

Padding length and reserved.

addresses: bytes = <ListField addresses>

Addresses.

padding: bytes = <PaddingField padding>

Padding.

classmethod pre_unpack(packet)

Prepare packet data for unpacking process.

Parameters:

packet (dict[str, Any]) – packet data

post_process(packet)

Revise schema data after unpacking process.

Parameters:

packet (dict[str, Any]) – Unpacked data.

Return type:

Schema

Returns:

Revised schema.

ip: list[IPv6Address | bytes]

Addresses (SRH prefix compression decoded).

Auxiliary Functions

pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.schema.ipv6_route_data_selector(pkt)

Selector function for IPv6_Route.data field.

Parameters:

pkt (dict[str, Any]) – Packet data.

Return type:

FieldBase

Returns:

A SchemaField wrapped RoutingType instance based on IPv6_Route.type.

pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.schema.ipv6_route_data_length(hdr_ext_len)

Length, in octets, of the IPv6-Route type-specific data for a given Hdr Ext Len.

Per RFC 8200 Section 4.4, Hdr Ext Len is “the length of the Routing header in 8-octet units, not including the first 8 octets” – i.e. the total on-the-wire header is 8 + 8 * hdr_ext_len octets. Of that, the 4 octets of next/length/type/seg_left are not part of the type-specific data, so the data itself – what ipv6_route_data_selector() hands to the nested RoutingType schema – is 4 + 8 * hdr_ext_len octets. This is the single place that arithmetic is done on the read side; see _make_hdr_ext_len() for its inverse on the write side. Dropping the 4 + would leave the data length 4 octets short.

Parameters:

hdr_ext_len (int) – raw Hdr Ext Len field value, as read off the wire.

Return type:

int

Returns:

Length, in octets, of the type-specific data.

pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.schema.ipv6_route_header_length(hdr_ext_len)

Total length, in octets, of the on-the-wire IPv6-Route header for a given Hdr Ext Len.

This is the fixed 4 octets of next/length/type/seg_left plus the type-specific data computed by ipv6_route_data_length(), i.e. 4 + (4 + 8 * hdr_ext_len) – a different quantity from ipv6_route_data_length() itself (8 + 8 * hdr_ext_len here vs. 4 + 8 * hdr_ext_len there), not a duplicate of it. It is what each _read_data_type_* in pcapkit.protocols.internet.ipv6_route.protocol reports back as the parsed route data’s own .length, which read() then subtracts from the outer packet length to find the next layer’s length. Its inverse is the (length - 8) // 8 that _make_data() passes back as hdr_ext_len; _make_hdr_ext_len() inverts ipv6_route_data_length() instead.

Parameters:

hdr_ext_len (int) – raw Hdr Ext Len field value, as read off the wire.

Return type:

int

Returns:

Total length, in octets, of the on-the-wire IPv6-Route header.
