STRUCT LEAPRAID_CHAIN64_IEEE_SG(9)
π struct leapraid_chain64_ieee_sg(9) β like, the 64-bit IEEE chain SGE descriptor, bestie β¨
okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's literally just gonna introduce you to one lil struct. no cap, it's a whole vibe. let's go π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
here's the whole thing, character for character, because we do not play about accuracy:
struct leapraid_chain64_ieee_sg {
__le64 addr;
__le32 len;
u8 r1[2];
u8 next_chain_offset;
u8 flg;
};
that's it. that's the struct. iconic behavior honestly π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so the NAME of this whole situation is struct leapraid_chain64_ieee_sg, and it's the 64-bit IEEE chain SGE descriptor. that's the assignment. that's what we're doing here. main character struct energy fr fr π
β¨ Members β¨
okay bestie, let's meet the members one by one, because each one is doing its little job and we respect that π
addrβ the physical address of the next chain segment. yes, physical, not virtual β it said what it said πlenβ the length of the current SGE. that's the whole vibe check for this field πΈr1β reserved. hands off, it's reserved, we don't touch it πnext_chain_offsetβ the offset to the next chain element. the way it points you to what's nextβ¦ very giving tour guide π§flgβ flags that describe SGE attributes. little flag field, big responsibilities β
π SEE ALSO π
the Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/leapraid/leapraid.h struct, plus literally this entire extended family of pages β grab a snack, this list is long and we are NOT skipping a single one π₯

lowkey a lil PSA: r1 is reserved, so don't be out here writing your own lore into it, k? π«Ά
and that's the page!! brought to you by the source at ./drivers/scsi/leapraid, dated October 2026 β mwah, go read the whole leapraid header family, ily, bye bestie πππ
