STRUCT LEAPRAID_SCAN_DEV_REQ(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct leapraid_scan_dev_req(9) πŸ’–

okay so this is the Kernel API Manual page for struct leapraid_scan_dev_req, and yes bestie, it's exactly what it sounds like: the little request packet that says "hey, go look at the devices" ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct leapraid_scan_dev_req β€” the request to scan devices. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the struct in all its glory, copy it exactly, don't you dare touch a byte:

struct leapraid_scan_dev_req {
    u8 r1[2];
    u8 chain_offset;
    u8 func;
    u8 r2[3];
    u8 msg_flag;
    u8 r3[4];
 };

πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

okay let's go member by member, no skipping, we don't do that here πŸ’…

  • r1 β€” Reserved. literally just padding, it's giving "filler episode" but we respect it πŸ™ˆ
  • chain_offset β€” Offset for chained SGE. this is the one doing actual work, main character energy fr fr πŸ‘‘
  • func β€” Function code. the label on the tin, iykyk ⭐
  • r2 β€” Reserved. more filler, more vibes πŸ¦‹
  • msg_flag β€” Message flags. flags = little metadata sprinkles 🌸
  • r3 β€” Reserved. and we close out with filler. iconic, honestly πŸ’€
bestie reminder: "Reserved" means don't put your stuff there, no cap. it's not a free parking spot 🚫
