πŸ’… struct xe_sriov_migration_state(9) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this is the page for struct xe_sriov_migration_state, and it's literally the per-VF device-level migration data holder. yes, per-VF, as in one per Virtual Function, and yes, it's exactly as iconic as it sounds πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct xe_sriov_migration_state β€” the per-VF, device-level, migration-related data situation. that's the whole vibe. it holds the migration stuff for a VF and it's not trying to be subtle about it πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct xe_sriov_migration_state {
    wait_queue_head_t wq;
    struct mutex lock;
    struct xe_sriov_packet *pending;
    struct xe_sriov_packet *trailer;
    struct xe_sriov_packet *descriptor;
 };

like look at her. five members. zero notes. main character struct energy fr fr πŸ‘‘


✨ Members ✨

  • wq β€” a waitqueue, and it's here for one reason: so nobody has to busy-wait for snapshot production/consumption 😭 like pls, go to sleep, the waitqueue will wake you. obsessed with the efficiency honestly.
  • lock β€” a struct mutex, and its whole job is protecting the migration data. no cap, don't touch the data without her 🫢
  • pending β€” the currently processed data packet of VF resource. it's the one on deck, the one in the group chat right now πŸ”₯
  • trailer β€” a data packet used to indicate the end of stream. that's a wrap, credits rolling, stream over 🎬
  • descriptor β€” a data packet containing the metadata describing the device. it's the little profile bio of the device, and honestly it ate 🌈

heads up bestie: this page is literally just the struct + its members, so peek at the header file above before you go poking at fields β€” no invented lore here, only what the page says 🧚

and that's the whole page, mwah πŸ’– brought to you from the ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe source tree, dated October 2026, signed off with a little πŸ“ and a very serious struct title struct xe_s...ration_state(9) because even truncated filenames deserve love. slay. periodt. ✨
