STRUCT MPI3MR_BUF_ENTRY_LIST(9)

💅 struct mpi3mr_buf_entry_list(9) — Kernel API Manual, but make it a vibe

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for struct mpi3mr_buf_entry_list(9) — yes that's the whole title, we're starting strong 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct mpi3mr_buf_entry_list — it's literally a list of user buffer descriptors for MPI Passthrough requests. that's the whole job. main character energy, minimal responsibilities 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the shape of it, no cap:

struct mpi3mr_buf_entry_list {
    __u8 num_of_entries;
    __u8 rsvd1;
    __u16 rsvd2;
    __u32 rsvd3;
    struct mpi3mr_buf_entry buf_entry[1];
 };

copy that exactly please, i'm not playing 🙈

🎀 Members 🎀

• num_of_entries — the number of buffer descriptors. it's giving "how many are we working with" 💅
• rsvd1 — Reserved. not for you, bestie. hands off 🚫
• rsvd2 — Reserved. also not for you ✨
• rsvd3 — Reserved. still not for you, we stay respecting the reserved fields 😌
• buf_entry — a Variable length array of buffer descriptors. variable length!! she expands!! iconic 🔥

k bye bestie, go write some passthrough requests, you've so got this 🎀✨💖
