STRUCT ACRN_MMIODEV(9)
π struct acrn_mmiodev(9) β¨
okay so bestie, grab a strawberry π β this one's from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally just a little struct, but it's a main character struct, iykyk.
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct acrn_mmiodev β the info bundle for assigning or de-assigning an MMIO device. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
struct acrn_mmiodev {
__u8 name[8];
struct acrn_mmio_dev_res res[ACRN_MMIODEV_RES_NUM];
};
no cap, that's the entire shape of it. two members, zero drama π
π Members π
nameβ the name of the MMIO device. it's a__u8array of8, so keep it cute and keep it short, bestie πresβ the array of MMIO device descriptions, sizedACRN_MMIODEV_RES_NUM. it's giving "plural, so bring a whole array" β¨
π Description π
okay so this is the important bit: this structure gets passed to the hypervisor directly. like, straight through. no middleman, no vibe check in between π«Ά that's literally the whole description and honestly it ate.

go read all of them, they're iconic, periodt π₯
ngl bestie, there's not a ton here β but everything that is here is exact, so don't go renamingnameor resizingreson me π
and that's the whole page!! mwah π this cutie lives at ./include/uapi/linux, the page itself is dated October 2026, and yeah β it's struct acrn_mmiodev(9) all the way down π§β
