dpaa2_io_service_select(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 dpaa2_io_service_select(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

Okay so picture this: it's a Linux kernel man page, the manual is the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is dpaa2_io_service_select. Buckle up, we're getting you a DPAA2 I/O service that's literally affined to a CPU. It's giving "matchmaker but for CPUs and services" 💖

✨ NAME ✨

dpaa2_io_service_select — hand you back a dpaa2_io service that's affined to this cpu 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dpaa2_io * dpaa2_io_service_select (int cpu );

Like, that's it. One arg. One pointer back. Iconic, honestly.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • cpu — the cpu id 👑 that's it, that's the whole argument, no cap

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

So what happens is: you call this and it returns the affine dpaa2_io service. But bestie, listen — if there is no service affined to the cpu you specified, you get NULL. Not a vibe, but that's the deal 😭

Oh and here's the little plot twist 🌀 — if you pass DPAA2_IO_ANY_CPU, it'll return the next available service instead. Main character energy: you don't care which CPU, you just want a service, periodt.

💀 SEE ALSO 💀

The kernel file lives at ./drivers/soc/fsl/dpio/dpio-service.c — that's where all the lore is kept 📂✨

And the whole friend group, in order, no skipping:

Mwah 💋 that's the whole page. Sourced from ./drivers/soc/fsl/dpio, dated October 2026, and she's serving Kernel API Manual realness. Go find your CPU's soulmate, bestie — slay 🧚‍♀️🌈
