πŸ’– struct mei_ext_hdr_gsc_f2h πŸ’–

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual bestie, and it's literally the struct that describes the gsc firmware to host interface. no cap, that's the whole vibe. it's giving "handshake between firmware and host" energy 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

struct mei_ext_hdr_gsc_f2h β€” gsc firmware to host interface πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

struct mei_ext_hdr_gsc_f2h {
    struct mei_ext_hdr hdr;
    u8 client_id;
    u8 reserved;
    u32 fence_id;
    u32 written;
 };

look at her. five fields. flawless. no notes. 🌸
