STRUCT PL08X_DRIVER_DATA(9)

💅 struct pl08x_driver_data(9) — like, the whole vibe

okay bestie, so this is from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally all about struct pl08x_driver_data — the local state holder for the PL08x ✨ that's it, that's the name section, no notes 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

like, here's the whole struct, character for character, no cap:

struct pl08x_driver_data {
    struct dma_device slave;
    struct dma_device memcpy;
    bool has_slave;
    void __iomem *base;
    struct amba_device *adev;
    const struct vendor_data *vd;
    struct pl08x_platform_data *pd;
    struct pl08x_phy_chan *phy_chans;
    struct dma_pool *pool;
    u8 lli_buses;
    u8 mem_buses;
    u8 lli_words;
 };

she's giving organized. she's giving main character struct. 🎀

🦋 Members 🦋

time for the member-by-member vibe check, bestie — every single one, let's go 💖

• slave — the optional slave engine for this instance. optional!! she doesn't have to show up, and that's valid 🙈
• memcpy — the memcpy engine for this instance. this one's the copy machine, periodt ⭐
• has_slave — a bool that says whether the PL08x has a slave engine (like, routed signals ✨)
• base — virtual memory base (remapped) for the PL08x. remapped, so it's not where you left it 💀
• adev — the corresponding AMBA (PrimeCell) bus entry 🚌
• vd — vendor data for this PL08x variant. every variant's got lore 🌈
• pd — platform data passed in from the platform/machine 🫶
• phy_chans — array of data for the physical channels. array!! plural!! she contains multitudes 👑
• pool — a pool for the LLI descriptors 🏊
• lli_buses — bitmask to OR in to the LLI pointer selecting the AHB port for LLI fetches 🔥 (yes, "or in", it's a bitmask thing, iykyk)
• mem_buses — set to indicate memory transfers on AHB2 🧚
• lli_words — how many words are used in each LLI item for this variant. counting words, iconic ⭐
