STRUCT NITROX_RFC4106_RCTX(9)

✨ struct nitrox_rfc4106_rctx(9) ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual — we're talking big kernel-energy, and you're gonna get it, i promise 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct nitrox_rfc4106_rctx — literally the rfc4106 cipher request context. that's the whole vibe. it's giving "one specific job, done well" 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the shape of it, no cap, copy it exactly:

struct nitrox_rfc4106_rctx {
    struct nitrox_aead_rctx base;
    struct scatterlist src[3];
    struct scatterlist dst[3];
    u8 assoc[20];
 };

like… four fields. tiny struct, main character energy 👑

---

🎀 Members 🎀

okay so let's meet the cast, one by one 💖

• base — the AEAD request context. this is the foundation, the moment, the anchor of the whole thing ✨
• src — the Source sglist. where the data's coming from 📥
• dst — the Destination sglist. where it's going to 📤
• assoc — the AAD. that's associated data, and yes she's got her own little spot 🍓

ngl, seventeen cross-references is a lot of tabs open, but that's the assignment and we do it fabulously 💀✨
