STRUCT IPACK_BUS_DEVICE(9)
π struct ipack_bus_device(9) β the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition π
okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you're looking at IPack, and you need something that represents a bus. That's literally this struct. It's the whole vibe of a bus, condensed. Main character energy, no cap. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct ipack_bus_device β the representation of an IPack bus, periodt π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
struct ipack_bus_device {
struct module *owner;

okay so these are the fields, and here's what they actually mean:
slotsβ the number of slots available. that's it. that's the field. πbus_nrβ the ipack bus number. her little ID, her badge number, iykyk πopsβ the bus operations for the mezzanine drivers. the plug-and-play behavior lives here β¨
ngl the struct also carriesownerandparentup in the synopsis β they're right there in the definition, so don't act surprised. π
