STRUCT IDPF_REG_OPS(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct idpf_reg_ops(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the struct idpf_reg_ops(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β€” this is the glow-up doc for a struct full of device specific register operation function pointers. it's giving "the plug board for register poking" and honestly? iconic. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

struct idpf_reg_ops β€” device specific register operation function pointers. literally the little black book of "who do i call to touch which register" πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct idpf_reg_ops {
    void (*ctlq_reg_init)(struct libie_mmio_info *mmio, struct
libie_ctlq_create_info *cctlq_info);
    int (*intr_reg_init)(struct idpf_vport *vport, struct
idpf_q_vec_rsrc *rsrc);
    void (*mb_intr_reg_init)(struct idpf_adapter *adapter);
    void (*reset_reg_init)(struct idpf_adapter *adapter);
    void (*trigger_reset)(struct idpf_adapter *adapter, enum idpf_flags
trig_cause);
    void (*ptp_reg_init)(const struct idpf_adapter *adapter);
 };

πŸ’… Members πŸ’…

  • ctlq_reg_init β€” mailbox control queue register initialization. the control-queue setup girlie πŸ¦‹
  • intr_reg_init β€” traffic interrupt register initialization. yes, the traffic interrupts, she's busy πŸ”₯
  • mb_intr_reg_init β€” mailbox interrupt register initialization. mailbox but make it interrupt ✨
  • reset_reg_init β€” reset register initialization. setting the stage for a fresh start 🌸
  • trigger_reset β€” trigger a reset to occur. no cap, this one actually makes the reset happen πŸ’€
  • ptp_reg_init β€” PTP register initialization. precision time protocol gets her own dedicated pointer, as she deserves πŸ‘‘

and the whole friend group 😭 (they all said "not me being referenced"):


bestie reminder: those function pointers are device specific β€” which is the whole point, so don't go assuming one device's register dance works on another. iykyk 🧚

and that's the page!! 🌈 this little gem lives in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf, dated October 2026 β€” mwah, go read the actual idpf code, she ate πŸ’–πŸŽ€β­
