STRUCT IONIC_XCVR_EVENT(9)

💅 struct ionic_xcvr_event(9) 🦋

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ and today's main character is struct ionic_xcvr_event — literally the lil struct that says "hey, the transceiver changed" 🎀 no cap.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct ionic_xcvr_event — Transceiver change event 💅 like, the whole personality is "something moved in the optics department" and honestly? iconic.

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

here's the shape of it, keep it exactly like this, no editing:

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

that's it. that's the whole struct. small but mighty 🫶

---

🎀 Members 🎀

• eid — the event number, aka the receipt for this event 🧾 it's a __le64.
• ecode — the event code, and it equals IONIC_EVENT_XCVR 💀 that's the whole vibe check. it's a __le16.
• rsvd — reserved byte(s), a whole u8 rsvd[54] of them 🙈 that's 54 bytes of "please don't touch, reserved." bestie, leave them alone.

like, yes, that's a lot of reading. but you asked, and I would never gatekeep the docs from you 💜

ngl the rsvd[54] is doing SO much heavy lifting here — it's giving "reserved, mind your business" energy and that's valid 💅

sign-off time, bestie: this page came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/pensand... and it's dated October 2026 ⭐ so if you're reading it, congrats, you're in the future. stay hydrated, read your structs, and remember: reserved bytes are reserved for a reason 🎀✨💖
