STRUCT IONIC_DEV_INIT_CMD(9)

✨ struct ionic_dev_init_cmd(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 — this is the page for struct ionic_dev_init_cmd, aka the Device init command 🎀. It's giving "little struct that could" energy, and we're gonna go through it together, no cap.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ok so here's the whole vibe, literally in full:

struct ionic_dev_init_cmd {
    u8 opcode;
    u8 type;
    u8 rsvd[62];
 };

that's it. that's the struct. tiny, iconic, does exactly one job 👑

---

💅 Members 💅

• opcode — the opcode. yeah that's the whole description bestie, the manpage is not gonna elaborate 😭 it's an opcode and it knows it.
• type — the Device type. this is the one carrying the actual personality of the struct fr fr 🔥
• rsvd — reserved byte(s) 🙈 just vibing in there taking up space so future-you has somewhere to put stuff. do not touch, do not question, just respect the rsvd 🫶

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

okay this is the part where the page goes absolutely feral with the cross-references, and I mean every single one 👑 because they're all canon:

Kernel file:

like… that's a lot of family members and every one of them is invited to the cookout 🍓 the way this struct has more cousins than you have followers is lowkey sending me 💀

---

real talk though — nothing here is deprecated or dangerous, it's just a struct definition with a reserved field. the only hazard is wanting to poke at rsvd and honestly? don't 🙈

and that's the whole page bestie, you ate that 🫶 this came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/pensand... (yes it really is truncated like that, blame the page not me 😭) and it's dated October 2026 ⭐ mwah, go read the rest of ionic_if.h, ily bye 💜
