okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this one is about epf_ntb_config_spad_bar_alloc_interface 🎀 yes that's a whole mouthful, i know, but she's iconic and she's here to do exactly one job 🫶

epf_ntb_config_spad_bar_alloc_interface — allocate memory for the config + scratchpad region, for each of the PRIMARY and SECONDARY interface 💖

like, both interfaces. she's not picking favorites. periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int epf_ntb_config_spad_bar_alloc_interface (struct epf_ntb *ntb );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ntb — the NTB device that facilitates communication between HOST1 and HOST2 🌈 that's the whole vibe, she's the little bridge between the two hosts and she's lowkey carrying the relationship ngl 😭

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

so this is a wrapper for epf_ntb_config_spad_bar_alloc — which is the one that actually allocates memory for the config + scratchpad region — except this one does it for a specific interface 💅 like, the underlying function does the heavy lifting, and this girl just handles the "which interface tho" part. main character delegation energy, we stan 👑
