STRUCT RTL8365MB_PORT(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, this is the struct rtl8365mb_port(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — we're talking about struct rtl8365mb_port, aka the private per-port data struct. it's giving "small but crucial" and I'm obsessed ✨.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the struct in all its main-character glory, fr fr:

       struct rtl8365mb_port {
           struct realtek_priv *priv;
           unsigned int index;
           struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats;
           spinlock_t stats_lock;
           struct delayed_work mib_work;
        };

🎀 Members 🎀

• priv — pointer to parent realtek_priv data. parental supervision but make it struct 💅
• index — DSA port index, same as dsa_port::index. identity check: slayed ✅
• stats — link statistics populated by rtl8365mb_stats_poll, ready for atomic access via rtl8365mb_get_stats64. numbers go brrr, but atomically 📊
• stats_lock — protect the stats structure during read/update. no racing, bestie 🔒
• mib_work — delayed work for polling MIB counters. the little polling gremlin 🧚
