πŸ’… hinic_rq_put_wqe(9) β€” kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of hinic_rq_put_wqe(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual. this one is short and sweet, no cap β€” it's giving "tiny function, big responsibilities" energy πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

hinic_rq_put_wqe β€” release the ci for new wqes

like, literally what it says on the tin, bestie. it releases the consumer index (ci) so fresh wqes can come through πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void hinic_rq_put_wqe (struct hinic_rq *rq , u16 cons_idx , unsigned int
wqe_size );

returns void, so no little return value to obsess over β€” it just does the thing and dips πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • rq β€” the recv queue. this is the main character of the whole operation, the queue we're working with πŸ’–
  • cons_idx β€” consumer index of the wqe (u16, in case you were wondering). this is the index that's getting released, periodt ✨
  • wqe_size β€” the size of the wqe. unsigned int, and yes you gotta tell it how big the wqe is, no guessing allowed πŸ™ˆ
