STRUCT SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGER_T(9)

πŸ’… struct SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGER_T(9) β€” Kernel API Manual πŸŽ€

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for struct SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGER_T β€” yes the whole title, we're not abbreviating, she said her full name and she's proud of it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGER_T β€” the literal definition of an MPI trigger element. that's it, that's the vibe πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct SL_WH_MPI_TRIGGER_T {
    uint16_t IOCStatus;
    uint16_t Reserved;
    uint32_t IocLogInfo;
 };

look at her. three fields. absolutely no notes. icon behavior only πŸ‘‘


🌈 Members 🌈

  • IOCStatus β€” the MPI IOCStatus. it's a uint16_t, she's little but she matters πŸ’–
  • Reserved β€” the reserved field, uint16_t. it's giving "i'm just here so the struct lines up" 🫢
  • IocLogInfo β€” the MPI IocLogInfo, a uint32_t. it can be a specific value, or you can drop 0xFFFFFFFF in there as a wildcard and she'll match everything, no cap 😭πŸ”₯

πŸ¦‹ Description πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea: this struct defines an MPI IOCStatus/IocLogInfo pair. and like… a pair that, if it ever gets observed, should trigger a DIAG_TRIGGER driver event. that's the whole plot 🎬

it's literally matchmaking for log values β€” you write down the combo you're watching for, and if that combo shows up, the driver reacts. lowkey obsessed with this level of commitment πŸ’…
