💖 rte_ml_buff_seg(3) 💖

okay bestie, buckle up, we're in the Library Functions Manual section and this little guy is called rte_ml_buff_seg. it's a struct. it's a king. let's get into it ✨

rte_ml_buff_seg — literally the moment 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <rte_mldev.h>

✨ Data Fields ✨

• rte_iova_t iova_addr
• void * addr
• uint32_t length
• uint32_t reserved
• struct rte_ml_buff_seg * next

🦋 Detailed Description 🦋

so. picture this. the ML operation's input and output buffer representation as a scatter gather list. that's the whole vibe. it's giving "i hold your buffers, i chain them together, i am the moment." 👑

💅 Field Documentation 💅

⭐ rte_iova_t iova_addr

the IOVA address of the segment buffer. that's it, that's the field. no cap.

Definition at line 419 of file rte_mldev.h.

🌈 void* addr

the virtual address of the segment buffer. yes, there's two addresses. one is the IOVA one, this one is the virtual one. they're different. they're both slaying. 💜

Definition at line 421 of file rte_mldev.h.

🍓 uint32_t length

segment length. how long the segment is. iconic, we love a units-relevant field. 📏

Definition at line 423 of file rte_mldev.h.

🧚 uint32_t reserved

reserved for future use. bestie do NOT touch this one. it's a time capsule for future devs. hands off. 🙈

Definition at line 425 of file rte_mldev.h.

🌸 struct rte_ml_buff_seg* next

points to the next segment. and here's the important part, lowkey the main character detail: a value of NULL represents the last segment. so when the chain hits NULL, that's the end, periodt. 🔥
