STRUCT STRATIX10_SVC_DATA_MEM(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct stratix10_svc_data_mem(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes we're literally reading kernel docs together, this is our bonding era 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

struct stratix10_svc_data_mem β€” the service memory structure, aka the little record that keeps track of a chunk of memory πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct stratix10_svc_data_mem {
    void *vaddr;
    phys_addr_t paddr;
    size_t size;
    struct list_head node;
 };

yes that's the whole thing. four fields. she's compact and she knows it ✨


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

πŸ’œ the fields, one by one

  • vaddr β€” the virtual address. the vibe address, if you will 🌈
  • paddr β€” the physical address. the real-real one, no cap πŸ”₯
  • size β€” size of memory. how much memory we're talking about, periodt πŸ“
  • node β€” link list head node. she's the connector, the social butterfly of the list πŸ¦‹

πŸ‘‘ Description πŸ‘‘

so here's the tea πŸ“ β€” this struct is used in a list that keeps track of buffers which have been allocated or freed from the memory pool. like a little guestbook for memory, honestly.

and the service layer driver also uses this struct to transfer physical address to virtual address. that's the whole gig. main character energy fr fr πŸ’…
