STRUCT MLXREG_DPU(9)
π struct mlxreg_dpu(9) β device private data β¨
okay bestie, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's lowkey one of the shortest ones you'll ever meet, so let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct mlxreg_dpu β literally just the device private data. that's the whole vibe. it's giving "holder of things" and honestly? iconic.
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
struct mlxreg_dpu {
struct device *dev;
struct mlxreg_core_data *data;
struct mlxreg_core_platform_data *io_data;
struct platform_device *io_regs;
struct mlxreg_core_hotplug_platform_data *hotplug_data;
struct platform_device *hotplug;
};
like, copy it exactly bestie, every field, every *, every semicolon β no cap π
π Members π
okay so this is the part where we meet the whole cast, main character energy for each one:
devβ the platform device πdataβ the platform core data β¨io_dataβ the register access platform data π₯io_regsβ the register access device πhotplug_dataβ the hotplug platform data π¦hotplugβ the hotplug device πΈ
that's it. that's the squad. six members and every single one of them is doing its job π
