hinic_hwdev_num_qps(9)
π hinic_hwdev_num_qps(9) β a Kernel API Manual moment β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to hinic_hwdev_num_qps, straight out of the Kernel API Manual (section 9, obvs, that's the kernel-API-girlies section π). This one is short, sweet, and does exactly one thing, and honestly? Respect. π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
hinic_hwdev_num_qps β returns the number of QPs available for use π
Yes. That's the whole personality. It counts your QPs and tells you. Iconic minimalism, no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int hinic_hwdev_num_qps (struct hinic_hwdev *hwdev );
It's giving "one function, one argument, one int return, zero drama." π Literally just hands you back an int.
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
hwdevβ the NIC HW device π (the hardware device for the NIC, in case the abbreviation was doing too much β it wasn't, but y'know, we love clarity π)
π DESCRIPTION π
Return number QPs available for use. That's it. That's the whole vibe check, and it passed. β¨
Like, you give it the NIC HW device, it gives you back how many QPs are available for use. Main character energy from a function that could not possibly be shorter. Obsessed. π
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
The kernel file it lives in, bestie, is literally:

iykyk π go read them, they're all part of the same little hinic family.
π heads up bestie: this page is short on purpose. It's one function, one job. Don't go looking for lore that isn't here. π
mwah π that's the page! This cutie comes from ./drivers/net/ethernet/huawei/... and the version/date situation on the footer is October 2026 β so yeah, we're reading it from the future, slay, time-travel era β³β¨ hinic_hwdev_num_qps(9) forever, periodt. π
