STRUCT DEVLINK_DPIPE_TABLE(9)

💅 struct devlink_dpipe_table(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the main character is struct devlink_dpipe_table — literally the table object itself. no cap, that's the whole NAME. let's get into it ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the struct in all its glory, bestie — copy it exact, don't @ me:

struct devlink_dpipe_table {
    void *priv;
    const char *name;
    bool counters_enabled;
    bool counter_control_extern;
    bool resource_valid;
    u64 resource_id;
    u64 resource_units;
    const struct devlink_dpipe_table_ops *table_ops;
    struct rcu_head rcu;
 };

🎀 Members 🎀

k so every field, one by one, we are NOT skipping any 💖

• priv — the private one 🫶 literally just private.
• name — the table name, duh. it's giving identity. 👑
• counters_enabled — tells you if the counters are active. like, are they awake or nah 😴
• counter_control_extern — tells you whether counter control lives in dpipe or in an external tool. iykyk 🔥
• resource_valid — indicates that the resource id is valid ✅ (yes that's the whole vibe)
• resource_id — the relative resource this table is related to. it's the table's ✨situationship✨
• resource_units — the number of the resource's unit consumed per the table's entry. math girlies rise 🧚
• table_ops — the table operations. the plungins. the ops, fr fr 💅
• rcu — rcu. that's it. that's the description. 💀
