STRUCT PDS_CORE_GET_COMPONENT_INFO_CMD(9)
π struct pds_core_get_component_info_cmd(9) π
okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this page is literally all about one struct: struct pds_core_get_component_info_cmd. yes it's a long name. no we're not abbreviating it. it's the GET_COMPONENT_INFO command and it's kind of a baddie β¨
π NAME π
struct pds_core_get_component_info_cmd β the GET_COMPONENT_INFO command. that's the whole vibe. that's what it does. π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
here's the struct in all its glory, no cap, copied exactly:
struct pds_core_get_component_info_cmd {
u8 opcode;
u8 ver;
__le16 data_len;
u8 rsvd[4];
__le64 data_pa;
};
look at her. so tidy. so structured. main character energy fr π«Ά

okay let's meet the cast, one by one, bestie:
opcodeβ this one's whole personality isPDS_CORE_CMD_GET_COMPONENT_INFO. that's it. that's the value. it's giving "I know who I am." πverβ the driver's max supported version of this command. so it's like, "this is the highest version I can handle," and honestly same. πdata_lenβ length of the data sitting atdata_pa. the lil measurement girlie. πrsvdβ word boundary padding. it's just there for the alignment vibes. filler episode but make it iconic. πdata_paβ the DMA address of the data. this is the actual address, bestie. the real one. π₯
π¦ Description π¦
so here's the tea: FW populates struct pds_core_component_list_info pointed to by data_pa. that's the whole thing. firmware goes in, fills up that struct at the address in data_pa, and everybody's happy. literally that simple, iykyk π
π SEE ALSO π
bestie. buckle up. this list is LONG and every single one of these is staying because we don't skip entries in this house π the kernel file is ./include/linux/pds/pds_core_if.h and here's the full friend group:
