STRUCT IONIC_PORT_IDENTIFY_COMP(9)
β¨ struct ionic_port_identify_comp(9) β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and today's main character is struct ionic_port_identify_comp β literally the completion struct for the port identify command π
it's small, it's iconic, it's doing the most with the least, and honestly? obsessed π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct ionic_port_identify_comp β the Port identify command completion π no cap, that is the whole job description.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
here's the exact shape of it, bestie β do not come for me about the spacing, this is verbatim π
struct ionic_port_identify_comp {
u8 status;
u8 ver;
u8 rsvd[14];
};
like, look at her. three fields. one of them is just vibes (rsvd, we'll get there) and the struct still ate π
π¦ Members π¦
statusβ the Status of the command (it's anenum ionic_status_code, iykyk) β basically the receipt telling you how the identify went πverβ the Version of identify returned by the device β¨ so the hardware is the one handing you this number, not you, not me, the device πrsvdβ reserved byte(s) π literally just reserved space, nothing to see here, don't touch, don't read into it, she's booked and busy being a placeholder π

bestie that's a lot of cross-references and yes, every single one of them is here. we do not gatekeep the squad π
okay that's the whole page!! she lives in the kernel at ./drivers/net/ethernet/pensando/ionic/ionic_if.h, and this little slice of documentation is dated October 2026 β so when you see this page, just know it was served fresh with love. slay, go identify some ports, periodt β¨ππ
