STRUCT RPC_UCODE_LIBOS_PRINT_V1E_08(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

struct rpc_ucode_libos_print_v1e_08 β€” the RPC payload for libos print buffers πŸ’– (yes bestie, this is from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's giving "tiny struct, big job" energy)


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct rpc_ucode_libos_print_v1e_08 {
    u32 ucode_eng_desc;
    u32 libos_print_buf_size;
    u8 libos_print_buf[];
};

okay so that's the whole shape of it, three members, no cap 🫢


🌸 Members 🌸

  • ucode_eng_desc β€” the engine descriptor 🧚 literally what it says on the tin
  • libos_print_buf_size β€” the size of libos_print_buf[] πŸ“ so the buffer knows how big it is
  • libos_print_buf β€” the actual buffer πŸŽ€ the real one, the main character, the payload itself

πŸ¦‹ Description πŸ¦‹

So here's the tea β˜•: the engine descriptor is split up into a 31:8 "class ID" and a 7:0 "instance ID". That's the bit-slicing, iykyk. And out of all of that? We only care about messages from PMU πŸ’… that's it, that's the whole vibe check.

ngl, everything else in that descriptor is just kind of there doing its thing β€” PMU messages are the only ones we're obsessed with πŸ’€
