STRUCT QRTR_HDR_V1(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… struct qrtr_hdr_v1(9) β€” like, the Kernel API Manual, but make it cute ✨

Okay bestie, buckle up πŸŽ€ β€” today's main character is struct qrtr_hdr_v1, straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and she is iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

struct qrtr_hdr_v1 β€” the (I|R)PCrouter packet header, version 1. yes, "PCrouter", and yes, the (I|R) is doing exactly what you think it's doing πŸ’«

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the whole glow-up, verbatim, no cap:

struct qrtr_hdr_v1 {
    __le32 version;
    __le32 type;
    __le32 src_node_id;
    __le32 src_port_id;
    __le32 confirm_rx;
    __le32 size;
    __le32 dst_node_id;
    __le32 dst_port_id;
 };

Eight __le32 fields. That's it. That's the whole struct. She's lowkey minimalist and I respect it 🫢

πŸ’– MEMBERS πŸ’–

Every field, one by one, in order, because we do not skip ✨

  • version β€” the protocol version. which version of the vibe we're on πŸ’…
  • type β€” the packet type; it's one of QRTR_TYPE_*. pick your fighter πŸ‘‘
  • src_node_id β€” the source node. where it's coming from πŸ¦‹
  • src_port_id β€” the source port. the specific door on that node πŸšͺ
  • confirm_rx β€” a boolean; it's literally just "should a resume-tx packet be send in reply?" β€” yes, send, that's the original wording, I don't make the rules πŸ™ˆ
  • size β€” length of the packet, and heads up: this is excluding this header 🧚 so don't be out here counting the header too, that's a whole different number πŸ’€
  • dst_node_id β€” the destination node. where it's going πŸŽ€
  • dst_port_id β€” the destination port. the door on the other end 🌈
