rte_eth_hairpin_cap(3)

💖 rte_eth_hairpin_cap(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the DPDK manuals (that's section 3, library functions, iykyk) and it's all about this one lil struct called rte_eth_hairpin_cap. it lives in <rte_ethdev.h> and it's literally just a lil container that hands you back the hairpin capabilities your hardware is out here supporting. no cap.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <rte_ethdev.h>

🎀 Data Fields 🎀

here's everything stuffed inside the struct, bestie:

• uint16_t max_nb_queues
• uint16_t max_rx_2_tx
• uint16_t max_tx_2_rx
• uint16_t max_nb_desc
• struct rte_eth_hairpin_queue_cap rx_cap
• struct rte_eth_hairpin_queue_cap tx_cap

🌸 Detailed Description 🌸

⚠️ Warning — EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice 😭 so like, do not get attached, she is not stable, she is giving "here for a good time not a long time" energy.

A structure used to return the hairpin capabilities that are supported.
