STRUCT RPROC_VRING(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct rproc_vring(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” this one's all about struct rproc_vring, aka the remoteproc vring state. it's giving "small struct, big responsibilities" and honestly? we're obsessed. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

struct rproc_vring β€” the remoteproc vring state, fr fr πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct rproc_vring {
    void *va;
    int num;
    u32 da;
    u32 align;
    int notifyid;
    struct rproc_vdev *rvdev;
    struct virtqueue *vq;
 };

like, that's the whole struct. not me memorizing it. 😭


🌸 Members 🌸

  • va β€” the virtual address. that's it, that's the vibe. ✨
  • num β€” the vring size. how many. the count. the number. πŸ”’
  • da β€” the device address. yes it's a u32, no we're not discussing it. πŸ’œ
  • align β€” the vring alignment. everything gotta line up, periodt. πŸ“
  • notifyid β€” the rproc-specific unique vring index. unique!! iconic behavior honestly. πŸ‘‘
  • rvdev β€” the remote vdev. it's the parent-ish situation. 🫢
  • vq β€” the virtqueue of this vring. the actual queue doing the actual work. main character energy tbh. πŸ”₯

ngl this list is long but each one ate, no skips. 🌈

and that's the whole page, bestie!! πŸ’– this little number lives in ./include/linux, it's from the October 2026 era, and it's filed under struct rproc_vring(9). slay, go read some remoteproc code, ily πŸ«Άβœ¨πŸŒΈπŸ’…
