💅 libie_ctlq_prep_rx_desc(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — today's main character is libie_ctlq_prep_rx_desc, and honestly? she's a tiny little function with one job and she does it flawlessly. 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

libie_ctlq_prep_rx_desc — the girl who prepares the descriptor with a new address 💖 like that's literally her whole thing, no cap.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void libie_ctlq_prep_rx_desc (struct libie_ctlq_desc *desc , dma_addr_t
addr , u32 mem_truesize );

that's it. that's the signature. three args, zero drama. slay. 💅

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• desc — bestie this is the descriptor you're about to (re)initialize 🫶 whether it's brand new or getting a glow-up, this is the one getting the makeover.
• addr — the physical address you're putting into the descriptor 👑 this is THE address, the one that goes in. no substitutes.
• mem_truesize — the size of the accessible memory 🔥 like, how much memory you can actually reach. it's giving "know your limits" energy, fr fr.
