STRUCT NFP_REPR_PCPU_STATS(9)

💅 struct nfp_repr_pcpu_stats(9) — kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay bestie, so this is a struct page from the Kernel API Manual — literally the docs for struct nfp_repr_pcpu_stats. it's a per-CPU stats block for NFP representors and it's lowkey just counters + a sync thing. no cap, that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct nfp_repr_pcpu_stats — that's it, that's the name, the manpage literally leaves the description blank so we're just here for the struct itself 💀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole thing, character for character, don't @ me:

struct nfp_repr_pcpu_stats {
    u64 rx_packets;
    u64 rx_bytes;
    u64 tx_packets;
    u64 tx_bytes;
    u64 tx_drops;
    struct u64_stats_sync syncp;
 };

like, look at her. five u64 counters and one struct u64_stats_sync. main character energy honestly 👑

🎀 Members 🎀

bestie we are going member by member, no skipping, i promised:

• rx_packets — received packets. like, how many packets came in. that's the count 🍓
• rx_bytes — received bytes. how much data came in, in bytes. yes it's different from packets, yes you need both 💖
• tx_packets — transmitted packets. packets that went out 📤
• tx_bytes — the manpage says "Transmitted dropped" and i'm not gonna lie to you, that's word-for-word what the original says 😭 i'm not "fixing" it, i'm not guessing at it, i'm just telling you exactly what's written. copy it faithfully, that's the rule 🫡
• tx_drops — packets dropped on transmit. these are the packets that did not slay 💀
• syncp — described as "Reference count". it's the struct u64_stats_sync field, so it's your sync buddy for the per-CPU stats. keep it, don't lose it 🧚

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

go read these next, for real fr fr:

• Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/nfp_net_repr.h
• struct nfp_reprs(9)
• struct nfp_repr(9)
• enum nfp_repr_type(9)

heads up bestie: the source line at the bottom is literally truncated in the original — ./drivers/net/ethernet/netrono... — so i'm leaving it truncated. i'm not out here inventing the rest of the path 🙈

and that's the page! 🌈 cute little sign-off time: this one came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/netrono... and it's dated October 2026, and the page is struct nfp_repr_pcpu_stats(9). mwah, go read the actual header file, iykyk 💜✨
