.It Fn m_tag_get "type" "len" "wait"
Allocate an mbuf tag.
.Fa type
is one of the
.Dv PACKET_TAG_
macros.
.Fa len
is the size of the data associated with the tag, in bytes.
.Fa wait
is either
.Dv M_WAITOK
or
.Dv M_NOWAIT .
.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Free the mbuf tag
.Fa t .
.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.It Fn m_tag_prepend "m" "t"
Prepend the mbuf tag
.Fa t
to the mbuf
.Fa m .
.Fa t
will become the first tag of the mbuf
.Fa m .
When
.Fa m
is freed,
.Fa t
will also be freed.

.It Fn m_tag_unlink "m" "t"
Unlink the mbuf tag

from the mbuf
.Fa m .

.It Fn m_tag_delete "m" "t"
The same as

.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.It Fn m_tag_delete_chain "m" "t"
Unlink and free mbuf tags beginning with the mbuf tag
.Fa t
from the mbuf
.Fa m .
If
.Fa t
is
.Dv NULL ,
.Fn m_tag_delete_chain
unlinks and frees all mbuf tags associated with the mbuf
.Fa m .
.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Unlink and free all non persistent tags associated with the mbuf
.Fa m .
.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.It Fn m_tag_find "m" "type" "t"
Find an mbuf tag with type
.Fa type
after the mbuf tag
.Fa t
in the tag chain associated with the mbuf
.Fa m .
If
.Fa t
is
.Dv NULL ,
search from the first mbuf tag.
If an mbuf tag is found, return a pointer to it.
Otherwise return
.Dv NULL .
.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Copy an mbuf tag

.\" - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
.It Fn m_tag_copy_chain "to" "from"
Copy all mbuf tags associated with the mbuf

to the mbuf
.Fa to .
If
.Fa to
already has any mbuf tags, they will be unlinked and freed beforehand.
Return 1 on success.
Otherwise return 0.

is the last tag in the chain.
