STRUCT IONIC_PORT_INFO(9)

🫶 struct ionic_port_info(9) 🫶

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual bestie, this is the page for struct ionic_port_info(9) and it's literally the whole vibe of "what even is a port" in the ionic driver 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct ionic_port_info — the port info structure. that's it. that's the whole name section. slay 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct ionic_port_info {
    union ionic_port_config config;
    struct ionic_port_status status;
    union {
      struct ionic_port_stats      stats;
      struct ionic_mgmt_port_stats mgmt_stats;
    };
    union {
      u8 sprom_epage[384];
      struct {
        u8 sprom_page1[128];
        u8 sprom_page2[128];
        u8 sprom_page17[128];
      };
    };
    u8 rsvd[376];
    struct ionic_port_extra_stats extra_stats;
 };

like, look at her. she contains multitudes. unions inside unions, it's giving inception 🌀✨

---

🦋 Members 🦋

ok so here's the member-by-member breakdown, no cap:

• config — port configuration data. the settings, the fit, the whole look 🎀
• status — port status data. literally "how are you doing bestie" but for the port 🌈
• {unnamed_union} — anonymous. yep, she's anonymous, no name, still iconic 🫥✨ (this is the first one, there are two, keep reading)
• stats — port statistics data. the numbers, the receipts, the proof 📊🔥
• mgmt_stats — port management statistics data. like stats but management flavored 👑
• {unnamed_union} — anonymous. the second anonymous union, still anonymous, still here 🙈 (yes there are two, no I'm not kidding)
• sprom_epage — Extended Transceiver sprom. the extended transceiver's sprom, as e-page, u8 sprom_epage[384] 🧚
• {unnamed_struct} — anonymous. an unnamed struct peeking out, hi bestie 💜
• sprom_page1 — Extended Transceiver sprom, page 1. u8 sprom_page1[128] 🍓
• sprom_page2 — Extended Transceiver sprom, page 2. u8 sprom_page2[128] 🍓
• sprom_page17 — Extended Transceiver sprom, page 17. yes, page 17. we skipped ahead, we're built different 💅 (it's u8 sprom_page17[128])
• rsvd — reserved byte(s). u8 rsvd[376]. hands off, that's reserved 🙅‍♀️
• extra_stats — Extra port statistics data. the bonus stats, the deluxe edition extra port statistics data ⭐

bestie that's the whole page, we ate and left absolutely zero crumbs 👑✨

and for the cute sign-off: this one came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/pensand... (yes the footer truncates it like that, that's just how the footer do) and it's dated October 2026, the struct ionic_port_info(9) page in the Kernel API Manual. take care of her, she has two anonymous unions and a page 17 🫶💖
