rte_eth_dev_module_info(3)

πŸ’– rte_eth_dev_module_info πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is a page from the DPDK function manual β€” it's rte_eth_dev_module_info(3), and no, it's not a function function, it's a struct. A lil' baby struct. Let's get into it πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

to even look at this thing you gotta pull in the header first, no cap:

#include <rte_dev_info.h>

🌸 Data Fields 🌸

here's the whole entire squad, like that's it, that's the struct:

  • uint32_t type
  • uint32_t eeprom_len

πŸ’… Detailed Description πŸ’…

so the vibe here is: placeholder for accessing plugin module EEPROM. literally that's what it says, it's a placeholder, it's holding space for the EEPROM-accessing of the plugin module. iykyk 🫢

it's defined at line 45 of the file rte_dev_info.h, so if you're the type to go read the source (iconic behaviour honestly), that's where you go πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ Field Documentation πŸŽ€

uint32_t type

this one is the type of plugin module EEPROM. it's a uint32_t. that's the whole field. no notes. πŸ’œ

defined at line 46 of rte_dev_info.h.

uint32_t eeprom_len

and this one is the length of plugin module EEPROM. also a uint32_t. obsessed with the consistency fr fr ✨

defined at line 47 of rte_dev_info.h.


ok lowkey important: every "Definition at line N" thing is pointing you at rte_dev_info.h and those line numbers are from that file, so don't go looking in some other header and get confused, bestie 😭
