π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
int rx_recv_jumbo_pkt (struct hinic_rxq *rxq , struct sk_buff *head_skb
, unsigned int left_pkt_len , u16 ci );
like yes she takes four arguments and returns an int, she's booked and busy π
π ARGUMENTS π
okay bestie let's meet the whole cast, one by one:
rxqβ the rx queue. that's her home base, her main character location πΈhead_skbβ the first skb in the list. the head of the friend group, the one who walks in front πleft_pkt_lenβ the left size of the pkt, and to be clear that's excluding head skb. so it's the leftover length, the part that didn't fit in the head. no cap πciβ the consumer index. iykyk π§
