✨ struct nfp_bar β€” the BAR config queen πŸ‘‘

okay so bestie, let me introduce you to struct nfp_bar β€” it literally describes BAR configuration and usage and it's giving main character energy for sure πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole vibe, exactly as it is, no cap:

struct nfp_bar {
    struct nfp6000_pcie *nfp;
    u32 barcfg;
    u64 base;
    u64 mask;
    u32 bitsize;
    int index;
    atomic_t refcnt;
    void __iomem *iomem;
    struct resource *resource;
 };

πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

like, every single one of them, let's go:

  • nfp β€” backlink to the owner, iykyk 🫢 this is the pointer home
  • barcfg β€” cached contents of the BAR config CSR, literally a lil saved copy
  • base β€” the BAR's base CPP offset, that's the starting point bestie ✨
  • mask β€” mask for the BAR aperture, and ngl it's read only so don't even try
  • bitsize β€” bitsize of the BAR aperture, also read only πŸ™ˆ
  • index β€” index of the BAR, its own lil number
  • refcnt β€” number of current users, an atomic_t keeping count of who's using it
  • iomem β€” mapped IO memory, a void __iomem *
  • resource β€” iomem resource window, a struct resource *
