STRUCT IPA_ENDPOINT_DATA(9)

🦋 struct ipa_endpoint_data(9) — the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🦋

okay so you're reading the Kernel API Manual and you landed on struct ipa_endpoint_data — and honestly? iconic choice. this is the little struct that holds all the IPA endpoint configuration data, and we're gonna get into it together. no cap. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

struct ipa_endpoint_data — IPA endpoint configuration data 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

struct ipa_endpoint_data {
    bool filter_support;
    struct ipa_endpoint_config config;
 };

🌸 Members 🌸

• filter_support — whether endpoint supports filtering 🫶 (yes, it's a bool, yes it's important)
• config — hardware configuration ⚙️✨

---

💜 Description 💜

okay so here's the tea, bestie: not all endpoints support the IPA filtering capability. literally not all of them. and that's fine, we don't judge. 🥰

A filter table defines the filters to apply for those endpoints that do support it. The AP is responsible for initializing this table, and — important — it must include entries for non-AP endpoints. so like, no skipping. everyone gets a seat at the table. 🪑

For this reason we define all endpoints used in the system, and indicate whether they support filtering. that's literally the whole point of filter_support. 🎯

The remaining endpoint configuration data specifies default hardware configuration values that apply only to AP endpoints. so like, AP endpoints only, iykyk. 🧚

💡 friendly reminder: filter_support is a bool, so it's true or false — no in-between main character energy here. and remember, config only matters for AP endpoints, so don't apply it everywhere or it's giving chaos. 😭

that's the whole vibe check, bestie — go forth and configure those endpoints. slay. 💅✨
