πŸ’… irdma_sc_manage_stats_inst β€” Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up era of irdma_sc_manage_stats_inst(9). this is one of those kernel API pages, and honestly? she's giving quiet luxury utility function. no cap. let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

irdma_sc_manage_stats_inst β€” allocate or free stats instance πŸŽ€

like, that's literally her whole job. she either spins up a stats instance or she frees one. and yes, she ate. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int irdma_sc_manage_stats_inst (struct irdma_sc_cqp *cqp , struct
irdma_stats_inst_info *info , bool alloc , u64 scratch );

bestie look at that return type: int. she returns an int. and she takes four whole arguments. main character energy fr fr 🌈


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

one bullet per argument, let's go πŸ‘‘

  • cqp β€” the struct for cqp hw πŸ’– like, this is the hardware's cqp setup, and you're handing it over so she knows where to do the thing.
  • info β€” the stats info structure 🌸 this is the little bundle of stats details she's working with. she needs it. don't skimp.
  • alloc β€” the alloc vs. delete flag ⭐ classic little toggle: this is how she knows whether she's allocating something new or deleting it. it's giving "two moods" and both are valid.
  • scratch β€” u64 saved to be used during cqp completion πŸ”₯ a 64-bit scratch value that gets saved so it can be used during cqp completion. keep it, she'll want it later. iykyk πŸ’œ
