STRUCT HL_EQ(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is the struct hl_eq(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about struct hl_eq — the struct that describes the event queue (single one per device). bestie, it's giving "one queue, one vibe" 💅✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct hl_eq {
    struct hl_device        *hdev;
    void *kernel_address;
    dma_addr_t bus_address;
    u32 size;
    u32 ci;
    u32 prev_eqe_index;
    bool check_eqe_index;
 };

💖 Members 💖

• hdev — pointer to the device structure, the main-character device link 🫶
• kernel_address — holds the queue's kernel virtual address, literally right there in the name
• bus_address — holds the queue's DMA address 🔥
• size — the event queue size
• ci — the ci inside the queue. yep, that's the whole description, no cap 😭
• prev_eqe_index — the index of the previous event queue entry. The index of the current entry's index must be +1 of the previous one.
• check_eqe_index — do we need to check the index of the current entry vs. the previous one. This is for backward compatibility with older firmwares 👑
