irdma_setup_pbles(9)

💅 irdma_setup_pbles — like, the manual page manual page 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to irdma_setup_pbles(9), part of the Kernel API Manual. Yes we're in the kernel, yes it's giving big-brain hours, and yes you're gonna get it. Let's go 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

irdma_setup_pbles — copy user pg address to pble's 🦋

Like, it literally takes the user's page addresses and copies them into the pble's. That's the whole vibe. No cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int irdma_setup_pbles (struct irdma_pci_f *rf , struct irdma_mr *iwmr ,
u8 lvl );

periodt. that's the signature, copy it exactly, don't be weird about it 🙈

---

👑 ARGUMENTS 👑

• rf — the RDMA PCI function. main character energy right here, it's the function struct everything hangs off of 💅
• iwmr — the mr pointer for this memory registration. yes, this specific one, it's not like other mr pointers ✨
• lvl — the requested pble levels. you're asking for levels, bestie, and it's a u8 so like… be reasonable 🍓

lowkey this page is short but she's still an icon. go read ./drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma/verbs.c if you want the real tea ☕

and that's the whole thing, mwah 💋 this lil drop came out of the ./drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma corner of the tree, dated October 2026, and it's filed under irdma_setup_pbles(9). slay, go forth and register memory responsibly 🌟
