pdu

Small, fast, and correct L2/L3/L4 packet parser.

Author: Alex Forster <[email protected]>
License: Apache-2.0

build status crates.io version docs.rs

Small

  • Fully-featured no_std support
  • No Crate dependencies and no macros
  • Internet protocols only: application-layer protocols are out of scope

Fast

  • Lazy parsing: only the fields that you access are parsed
  • Zero-copy construction: no heap allocations are performed

Correct

  • Tested against Wireshark to ensure all packet fields are parsed correctly
  • Fuzzed using Honggfuzz to ensure invalid input does not cause panics
  • Does not use any unsafe code

Supported Protocols

The following protocol hierarchy can be parsed with this library:

  • Ethernet (including vlan)
    • ARP
    • IPv4 (including options)
      • TCP (including options)
      • UDP
      • ICMP
      • GREv0
        • ...Ethernet, IPv4, IPv6...
    • IPv6 (including extension headers)
      • TCP (including options)
      • UDP
      • ICMPv6
      • GREv0
        • ...Ethernet, IPv4, IPv6...

In addition, unrecognized upper protocols are accessible as bytes via Raw enum variants.

Getting Started

Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
pdu = "1.1"
