rte_port_out_ops(3)
π rte_port_out_ops β the manual page, but make it cute
okay bestie, so this is rte_port_out_ops(3) from the DPDK library functions manual, and it's literally the blueprint for how an output port behaves. no cap, it's a struct of function pointers and it's giving "interface" in the most iconic way. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
rte_port_out_ops β the output port interface that defines the output port operation
like, that's the whole vibe. it's the typedef/struct that tells DPDK "here's how you create, free, send, flush and read stats on an output port." periodt.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
#include <rte_port.h>

six fields, six little function-pointer besties, all lined up and ready π
π¦ Detailed Description π¦

Generated automatically by Doxygen for DPDK from the source code.
like, not me being written by a doc generator π she's literally an auto-generated icon and we love her for it.
and that's the whole page, bestie! this manual is from DPDK Version 25.11.3 (that's the source/version line at the bottom, folded in here so it stays iconic and not copy-pasted-coded). thanks for reading the rte_port_out_ops(3) lore with me π«Άπ
