STRUCT DIM_CQ_MODER(9)

💖 struct dim_cq_moder(9) 💖

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and bestie, it's a little struct with a big job 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

struct dim_cq_moder — the structure for CQ moderation values, no cap. It's the little messenger that carries info back and forth between DIM and whoever's consuming it 👑 (comms between DIM and its consumer, that's the whole vibe).

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dim_cq_moder {
    u16 usec;
    u16 pkts;
    u16 comps;
    u8 cq_period_mode;
    struct rcu_head rcu;
 };

literally five fields, look at her go 💅

🦋 Members 🦋

• usec — the CQ timer suggestion, and yes it's DIM doing the suggesting 💅
• pkts — the CQ packet counter suggestion, again hand-picked by DIM ✨
• comps — the completion counter, just counting completions like it's her job 🎀
• cq_period_mode — the CQ period count mode, and it comes from the CQE/EQE 🌈
• rcu — an rcu_head, there so you can do an asynchronous kfree_rcu 🧚
