💅 idpf_convert_reg_to_queue_chunks(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual for this little function — the header calls it idpf_convert...queue_chunks(9) (the man page tooling literally could not fit the whole name in, bless 😭) but its actual government name is idpf_convert_reg_to_queue_chunks. It lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's a tiny little copy-glue helper with main character energy in the idpf driver.

✨ NAME ✨

idpf_convert_reg_to_queue_chunks — literally just copying queue chunk information over to the right structure. That's it. That's the whole job. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void idpf_convert_reg_to_queue_chunks (struct virtchnl2_queue_chunk
*dchunks , struct idpf_queue_id_reg_chunk *schunks , u16 num_chunks );

no cap, it returns void — it does its thing and ghosts, no receipt, no return value, nothing to check. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • dchunks — the destination chunks 🎯 this is where the data gets stored, the glow-up location, the final resting place of your chunk info.
  • schunks — the source chunks 🌸 this is where the data gets copied from. the origin story. do not touch.
  • num_chunks — how many chunks to copy, as a u16. bestie this is your count, your limit, your "how many am I taking" number 📋
fair warning: it copies num_chunks chunks — so whatever number you hand it is the amount of copying that happens. don't be messy with it 🙈

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

the whole idpf friend group 🫶 the man page also points you at the kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c — that's where the source actually lives, iykyk. and here's literally every single sibling function it wants you to know about, no gatekeeping:

that's the whole squad 💀 ninety-one entries and every one of them is (9), we love a consistent queen 👑

🧚 and that's the tea, bestie. this page ships from the ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf section, dated October 2026, and the man page title it's filed under is still the truncated idpf_convert...queue_chunks(9) — periodt. 💜🌸
