STRUCT SRP_RPORT(9)

💅 struct srp_rport(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the glow-up of struct srp_rport — the SRP initiator or target port, straight out of the Kernel API Manual. she's a struct, she's iconic, and she's got a lot of fields, so grab a snack 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

struct srp_rport — SRP initiator or target port 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct srp_rport {
    struct device dev;
    u8 port_id[16];
    u8 roles;
    void *lld_data;
    struct mutex            mutex;
    enum srp_rport_state    state;
    int reconnect_delay;
    int failed_reconnects;
    struct delayed_work     reconnect_work;
    int fast_io_fail_tmo;
    int dev_loss_tmo;
    struct delayed_work     fast_io_fail_work;
    struct delayed_work     dev_loss_work;
 };

no cap, that's the whole thing. now let's meet the members one by one 💖

👑 Members 👑

• dev — the device that this rport is associated with. her home base 🏠
• port_id — a 16-byte port identifier. yes, sixteen. she's got range 💅
• roles — what role this port is playing: initiator or target. main character energy either way 👑
• lld_data — LLD private data. lowkey none of our business 🙈
• mutex — protects against concurrent rport reconnect / fast_io_fail / dev_loss_tmo activity. she's the group chat mod keeping everyone from talking over each other 🔒
• state — the rport state.
• reconnect_delay — reconnect delay, in seconds ⏳
• failed_reconnects — how many reconnect attempts have flopped. it's giving character development 😭
• reconnect_work — work structure used for scheduling reconnect attempts 🛠️
• fast_io_fail_tmo — fast I/O fail timeout, in seconds ⚡
• dev_loss_tmo — device loss timeout, in seconds 💀
• fast_io_fail_work — work structure used for scheduling fast I/O fail work 🛠️
• dev_loss_work — work structure used for scheduling device loss work 🛠️
