STRUCT IONIC_HEARTBEAT_EVENT(9)

💖 NAME 💖

struct ionic_heartbeat_event — sent periodically by NIC to indicate health. Basically the NIC’s lil “still alive, still healthy” heartbeat text, and honestly? Iconic. 💓

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       struct ionic_heartbeat_event {
           __le64 eid;
           __le16 ecode;
           u8 rsvd[54];
        };

🫶 Members 🫶

• eid — event number. It’s the event’s number, bestie. 🔢
• ecode — event code = IONIC_EVENT_HEARTBEAT. This is the heartbeat event code, no cap. 💅
• rsvd — reserved byte(s). Leave these reserved bytes alone; they’re reserved for a reason, periodt. 🙈

Cute lil sign-off, bestie: source/version is ./drivers/net/ethernet/pensand..., date is October 2026, and the title echo at the end is struct ionic...rtbeat_event(9). Stay healthy like this heartbeat event 💖✨
