✨ acomp_request_set_src_nondma(9) ✨

okay bestie so we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is acomp_request_set_src_nondma(9) — yes that's a long one, yes you're gonna say it right, and yes it slays 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

acomp_request_set_src_nondma — sets the non-DMA source virtual address, periodt

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void acomp_request_set_src_nondma (struct acomp_req *req , const u8 *src
, unsigned int slen );

like look at her go 😭 so clean

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • req — the asynchronous compress request itself, the main character of this whole operation 👑
  • src — a virtual address pointer pointing at your input buffer, she's pointing at the vibes
  • slen — the size of that input buffer, gotta know how much we're working with

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So what she does is: sets the source virtual address that an acomp operation needs. That's it, that's the job, and she does it flawlessly ✨

⚠️ real talk though — the address can not be used for DMA. Like, not allowed, not ever, don't even try it 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this list is long but every single one of these is iconic in her own right, no skips:

(and yes, acomp_request_alloc_extra(9) shows up twice — she said "encore" and honestly? respect 🫶)

that's the whole page bestie, go forth and point at your non-DMA buffers responsibly 💜
