💅 __libeth_xsk_xmit_fill_buf(9) — the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and we're talking about __libeth_xsk_xmit_fill_buf — the little internal helper that gets your XSk xmit all prepped and ready without any meta. yeah. no meta. we're going bare. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

__libeth_xsk_xmit_fill_buf — internal helper to prepare XSk xmit w/o meta

like, she's internal, she's a helper, and she is iconic for it. periodt. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct libeth_xdp_tx_desc __libeth_xsk_xmit_fill_buf (const struct xdp_desc *xdesc , const struct libeth_xdpsq *sq );

the way that signature just... sits there. struct libeth_xdp_tx_desc in, const struct xdp_desc *xdesc and const struct libeth_xdpsq *sq as the args. chefs kiss. 🫶

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • xdesc — the xdp_desc from the XSk buffer pool 💖 like, that's your buffer's little ID card, okay
  • sq — the XDPSQ abstraction for the queue 🌈 she's the queue vibe, abstracted, as she should be

⭐ RETURN ⭐

you get back an XDP Tx descriptor 💅 and it's fully loaded with the DMA and other info you need to pass to the driver callback. no cap, that's the whole deal. 🔥

literally just: descriptor in hand → hand it to the driver callback. that's the pipeline, bestie.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

okay this list is long and honestly kind of main-character energy, so let's give it the space it deserves 🌸

iykyk 💀💜

and that's the whole lore, bestie 💖 this one lives in ./include/net/libeth, it's dated October 2026, and it comes to you straight from the Kernel API Manual. go drink some water and go read your DMA descriptors 🍓✨
