🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <rte_service_component.h>

👑 Detailed Description 👑

So, the specification of a service. That's the assignment. 🎀

This struct is lowkey the metadata home for the service itself — it's holding the callback function that runs one single iteration of the service, a userdata pointer, flags, etc. Like, everything the service needs to know about its own self. It's giving main character energy, fr fr.
