STRUCT ICE_DDP_SEND_CTX(9)

okay bestie, you've landed on the struct ice_ddp_send_ctx(9) page in the Kernel API Manual — and honestly? iconic little struct. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

struct ice_ddp_send_ctx — sending context of current DDP segment 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

       struct ice_ddp_send_ctx {
           struct ice_hw *hw;
        };

💅 Members 💅

• hw — pointer to the hardware struct 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this struct lowkey keeps the current sending state — the header and the error — for the purpose of proper "last" bit setting in ice_aq_download_pkg. You use it via calls to ice_ddp_send_hunk. No cap. ✨
