lpfc_build_hbq_profile3(9)

✨ lpfc_build_hbq_profile3(9) ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yeah, the lpfc_build_hbq_profile3 one, section 9, kernel-space girlies rise) and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, and it's giving "one job, does it well." 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_build_hbq_profile3 — Set up the HBQ Selection Profile 3 🎀

like, that's literally her whole personality and she owns it.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void lpfc_build_hbq_profile3 (struct config_hbq_var *hbqmb , struct
       lpfc_hbq_init *hbq_desc );

it returns void btw — no return value, no drama, she just does the thing and dips. 😌

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• hbqmb — pointer to the HBQ configuration data structure in the mailbox command. bestie this is the one that gets filled in, okay, she's the canvas 🎨
• hbq_desc — pointer to the HBQ selection profile descriptor. this one's the blueprint, the inspo board, the "here's the vibe we're going for" 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so here's the tea on the Host Buffer Queue (HBQ) Selection Profile 3 ☕✨:

this profile says the HBA tests the incoming frame's R_CTL/TYPE fields with words 10:15 — yes, words ten through fifteen, not a typo, write it down 📝 — and then it performs the Sequence Length Test and the Byte Field Test using the fields in the Selection Profile 3 extension in words 20:31.

words 10:15 for the vibe check on R_CTL/TYPE, words 20:31 for the actual tests. no cap, that's the whole configuration. iconic, honestly. 👑
