STRUCT HL_VA_RANGE(9)
β¨ struct hl_va_range(9) β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual π this one's a lil struct page for <pink>struct hl_va_range</pink> and honestly it's giving "small but mighty". grab a boba, we're learning virtual address ranges today π§
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct hl_va_range β virtual addresses range. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
here's the whole glow-up, copy it exactly bestie:
struct hl_va_range {
struct mutex lock;
struct list_head list;
u64 start_addr;
u64 end_addr;
u32 page_size;
};
notice the lil space before the closing brace β that's canon, don't come for me π
π Members π
okay so these are the members, and each one has a job, and each one is doing it flawlessly:
lockβ astruct mutexwho has ONE job and that job is protecting the virtual addresses list. she's the bouncer at the club, no cap π«Άlistβ astruct list_headholding the list of virtual addresses blocks available for mappings. lowkey the main character of this struct ngl πstart_addrβ au64, literally just the range start address. periodt.end_addrβ au64, the range end address. iconic symmetry withstart_addr, we love to see it β¨page_sizeβ au32, the page size of this va range. it's giving "size matters (for pages)" π
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
sooo there is a LOT here and I mean a LOT β this struct runs in the same circles as basically everyone in ./drivers/accel/habanalabs/common/habanalabs.h. here's the full squad, no one left behind fr fr π

like I said. the whole squad. iykyk π«Ά
ok that's everything, nothing skipped, we ate and left no crumbs π
and that's the page bestie!! this lil number lives in ./drivers/accel/habanalabs/common and it's dated October 2026 β yes, the future, because this struct is ahead of its time β mwah, go read some more manpages, ily π§π
