STRUCT NFP_FLOWER_NON_REPR_PRIV(9)

💖 struct nfp_flower_non_repr_priv(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes we're reading kernel docs for fun now, that's the era we're in 💅. This one's about struct nfp_flower_non_repr_priv, which is the whole vibe of "private data for non-repr offloaded ports" 🦋. (also the header lowkey truncates it to struct nfp_...on_repr_priv(9), no cap, but she's the same girl 💀)

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct nfp_flower_non_repr_priv — priv data for non-repr offloaded ports, periodt 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct nfp_flower_non_repr_priv {
    struct list_head list;
    struct net_device *netdev;
    int ref_count;
    bool mac_offloaded;
    u8 offloaded_mac_addr[ETH_ALEN];
};

like, that's the whole struct. she's small but she's doing her job 🫶

---

🎀 Members 🎀

• list — the list entry of the offloaded reprs 📋 — she's linked up, she's in the group chat, she's got connections 💅
• netdev — a pointer to the non-repr net_device 🌐 — literally the device she's holding down
• ref_count — the number of references held for this priv data 🔢 — everybody wants a piece of her, and this tracks the headcount fr fr
• mac_offloaded — a flag indicating that a MAC address is offloaded for the device 🚩 — basically a "yes bestie, the MAC is offloaded" boolean
• offloaded_mac_addr — the MAC address that has been offloaded for dev 🍓 — the actual address, chillin' in a u8 array of ETH_ALEN

ngl the two MAC-related members are a matching set: one says whether it's offloaded, the other says which one 👑 iconic duo behaviour.

(yes it's truncated in the footer, we don't gatekeep, we just vibe 🌈), October 2026 edition, and the footer also barfs back the header struct nfp_...on_repr_priv(9) because the manpage gods love a little symmetry 🧚 mwah, go read the next struct 💖✨
