irdma_make_cm_node(9)

💅 irdma_make_cm_node — like, the Kernel API Manual girlies know ✨

Okay bestie, gather round, because today we're talking about irdma_make_cm_node(9) — the function whose whole entire job is creating a new instance of a cm node. That's it. That's the vibe. It makes a cm node, it's giving newborn-node energy, and honestly? Slay. 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct irdma_cm_node * irdma_make_cm_node (struct irdma_cm_core *cm_core
, struct irdma_device *iwdev , struct irdma_cm_info *cm_info , struct
irdma_cm_listener *listener );

Yeah she takes four args and returns a struct irdma_cm_node *. No cap. 🦋

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• cm_core — the cm's core, aka the whole entire main character of this operation 💅
• iwdev — the iwarp device structure, your hardware bestie 🫶
• cm_info — quad info for the connection, iykyk 📋
• listener — the passive connection's listener, just sitting there being observant 👀
