πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

__gsi_trans_commit β€” Common GSI transaction commit code πŸŽ€

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void __gsi_trans_commit (struct gsi_trans *trans , bool ring_db );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • trans β€” Transaction to commit πŸ’…
  • ring_db β€” Whether to tell the hardware about these queued transfers πŸ””

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so __gsi_trans_commit is lowkey doing the whole commit choreography, no cap πŸ’… it formats channel ring TRE entries based on the content of the scatterlist 🌸. It maps a transaction pointer to the last ring entry used for the transaction, so it can be recovered when it completes πŸ”. Then it moves the transaction to pending state ⏳. Finally β€” periodt β€” it updates the channel ring pointer and optionally rings the doorbell πŸ””βœ¨.
