STRUCT ADF_GEN4_TL_LAYOUT(9)

💅 struct adf_gen4_tl_layout(9) — Kernel API Manual, but make it cute

okay so bestie, welcome to the struct adf_gen4_tl_layout(9) page ✨ this is the kernel API manual and honestly? it's giving "the whole telemetry buffet, one struct" 👑

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct adf_gen4_tl_layout — no cap, this structure represents the entire telemetry counters data: the Device plus 4 Ring Pairs, exactly as they're being populated periodically by the device 🫶

Like, it's not some of the data. It's all of it. The device keeps topping it off on a schedule, and this struct is the whole snack table 🍓

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct adf_gen4_tl_layout {
    struct adf_gen4_tl_device_data_regs tl_device_data_regs;
    struct adf_gen4_tl_ring_pair_data_regs
tl_ring_pairs_data_regs[ADF_GEN4_TL_MAX_RP_NUM];
    __u32 reg_tl_msg_cnt;
    __u32 reserved;
 };

look at her. iconic. four fields, zero notes 💅 (the line wrap in the middle is on purpose, that's just how she's laid out in the original, don't come for her)

🦋 Members 🦋

• tl_device_data_regs — the structure of device telemetry registers 🖥️ like, the device's own personal stats corner
• tl_ring_pairs_data_regs — an array of ring pairs telemetry registers 🔁 yes bestie, an array — max size be ADF_GEN4_TL_MAX_RP_NUM, that's the ceiling, respect it
• reg_tl_msg_cnt — telemetry messages counter 🔢 it counts the telemetry messages, she's literally doing her job
• reserved — reserved 🙈 that's it, that's the whole description, she's reserved, mind your business

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• Kernel file ./drivers/crypto/intel/qat/qat_common/adf_gen4_tl.h
• struct adf_gen4_tl_slice_data_regs(9)
• struct adf_gen4_tl_device_data_regs(9)
• struct adf_gen4_tl_ring_pair_data_regs(9)

iykyk — the whole friend group is linked, go say hi to the slice, the device, and the ring pair siblings 🧚💜

---

lowkey a lil reminder: ADF_GEN4_TL_MAX_RP_NUM is the max ring pair number and that's the array bound, so don't go past it, we don't do out-of-bounds behavior in this house 💀

and that's the page!! 🎀 source: ./drivers/crypto/intel/qat/qat..., dated October 2026, and yeah the footer says struct adf_gen4_tl_layout(9) again because she loves a callback 👑 mwah, go read the header file, ily, bye ✨
