STRUCT MTK_HSDMA_PDESC(9)
hiii bestie π welcome to the struct mtk_hsdma_pdesc(9) page in the Kernel API Manual β weβre gonna make this kernel struct make sense, no cap. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
struct mtk_hsdma_pdesc β This is the struct holding info describing physical descriptor (PD), and its placement must be kept at 4-bytes alignment in little endian order. periodt. Itβs giving βmy bytes have a very specific vibeβ π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
struct mtk_hsdma_pdesc {
__le32 desc1;
__le32 desc2;
__le32 desc3;
__le32 desc4;
};
π Members π
okay so the Members list got its sentences chopped across columns like a group chat where everyone sends half a thought β Iβm keeping every crumb, bestie:
desc1β The control pad used to indicate hardware how todesc2β deal with the descriptor such as source anddesc3β destination address and data length. The maximumdesc4β data length each pdesc can handle is0x3f80bytes
Read those four together like the one continuous thought they are: the control pad tells hardware how to deal with the descriptor, including source and destination address and data length β and the maximum data length each pdesc can handle is 0x3f80 bytes π₯.
