rte_compressdev(3)

💖 rte_compressdev 💖

okay bestie, welcome to section 3 of the Library Functions Manual — this is rte_compressdev(3), and it's giving "data structure reveal" energy ✨ it's a DPDK thing, it lives in the compressdev world, and we're about to read every single line of it together. no skimming, no skipping, we're doing this properly 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

rte_compressdev

that's it. that's the name. short, iconic, knows exactly who she is 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_compressdev_internal.h>

🎀 Data Fields 🎀

here's the whole cast, in order, no one gets cut:

• compressdev_dequeue_pkt_burst_t dequeue_burst
• compressdev_enqueue_pkt_burst_t enqueue_burst
• struct rte_compressdev_data * data
• struct rte_compressdev_ops * dev_ops
• uint64_t feature_flags
• struct rte_device * device
• __extension__ uint8_t attached: 1

look at that little : 1 on the end of attached — a bitfield that said "i only need ONE bit, thanks" and honestly? boundaries. we love her 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what IS this thing? it's the data structure associated with each comp device. plain and simple, that's the whole vibe. one of these per compression device, holding all the good stuff together.
