💅 _base_build_sg_ieee(9) — build generic sg for IEEE format ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for _base_build_sg_ieee(9). This one is short and sweet: it builds a generic sg for IEEE format, and it's a void function, so there's literally no return value coming back to you. No little treat at the end. Periodt. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

_base_build_sg_ieee — build generic sg for IEEE format. That's the whole name vibe, no cap. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The signature is literally this, character for character:

void _base_build_sg_ieee (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , void *psge ,
dma_addr_t data_out_dma , size_t data_out_sz , dma_addr_t data_in_dma ,
size_t data_in_sz );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ioc — per adapter object. Like, the adapter's whole main-character energy in one argument. 👑
  • psge — virtual address for SGE. It's giving "here is the literal virtual address," no extra lore. ✨
  • data_out_dma — physical address for WRITES. WRITES is in all caps because that's exactly how the page says it. 💅
  • data_out_sz — data xfer size for WRITES. That's the size for the WRITES side. 📦
  • data_in_dma — physical address for READS. READS also stays in all caps, iykyk. 🌈
  • data_in_sz — data xfer size for READS. The size for the READS side, periodt. 🍓
