STRUCT PDS_CORE_LIF_GETATTR_CMD(9)
π¦ struct pds_core_lif_getattr_cmd β Kernel API Manual π
okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is this lil struct. buckle up π
β¨ NAME β¨
struct pds_core_lif_getattr_cmd β literally the vibe check where you ask the NIC for its LIF attributes π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
struct pds_core_lif_getattr_cmd {
u8 opcode;
u8 attr;
__le16 client_id;
};
no cap, that's the whole thing. three fields. small but iconic π

opcodeβ bestie this one's alwaysPDS_AQ_CMD_LIF_GETATTR, it's the opcode that tells everyone what we're doing here β¨attrβ which attribute type you're asking about, and it's anenum pds_core_lif_attrfr frclient_idβ your client identifier, so the NIC knows exactly who's asking π
