idpf_vport_get_queue_ids(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 idpf_vport_get_queue_ids(9) 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel has lore too), and we're talking about idpf_vport_get_queue_ids — the little function that goes "bestie, here's your queue id" and hands it over. Stay with me, it's actually so good.

✨ NAME ✨

idpf_vport_get_queue_ids — initializes queue ids from Mailbox parameters 🎀

Like, that's the whole vibe. It takes the ids that came over the mailbox and sets them up.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int idpf_vport_get_queue_ids (u32 *qids , int num_qids , u16 q_type ,
       struct idpf_queue_id_reg_info *chunks );

that's the whole signature, no cap. four lil arguments, returns an int, and it's literally the whole plot 💖

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • qids — array of queue ids. this is the destination, the main character of the whole operation 💫
  • num_qids — number of queue ids. yes, she needs to know how many, don't skip this one 🫶
  • q_type — queue model. a u16, so it fits in a small purse.
  • chunks — queue ids received over mailbox. type is struct idpf_queue_id_reg_info *, and this is where the ids actually came from, iykyk 📬

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so lowkey the whole thing is: it will initialize all queue ids with ids received as mailbox parameters. every single one. none left behind. 🥹

and then — this is the slay part — it returns number of ids filled. so the return value is literally a headcount of how many ids got their moment. periodt. 💅

ngl it's a small function but it's doing its job and it's doing it well, we love a consistent queen 👑
