ttm_kmap_iter_iomap_init(9)

๐Ÿ“ฆ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

๐Ÿ’… ttm_kmap_iter_iomap_init(9) โ€” like, the Kernel API Manual one ๐ŸŽ€

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up era of ttm_kmap_iter_iomap_init, straight out of the Kernel API Manual โœจ this is the function that gets your struct ttm_kmap_iter_iomap all dressed and ready for the group chat, no cap.


๐ŸŒธ NAME ๐ŸŒธ

ttm_kmap_iter_iomap_init โ€” Initialize a struct ttm_kmap_iter_iomap ๐Ÿซถ (yes that's the whole job and she does it well)


โœจ SYNOPSIS โœจ

struct ttm_kmap_iter * ttm_kmap_iter_iomap_init (struct
ttm_kmap_iter_iomap *iter_io , struct io_mapping *iomap , struct
sg_table *st , resource_size_t start );

she takes four args and returns a pointer, iconic behavior honestly ๐Ÿ‘‘


๐ŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS ๐ŸŽ€

  • iter_io โ€” the struct ttm_kmap_iter_iomap you want to initialize. this is the main character, she's getting set up ๐Ÿ’–
  • iomap โ€” the struct io_mapping that represents the underlying linear io_memory. literally the map to the whole vibe ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ
  • st โ€” the sg_table into iomap, representing the memory of the struct ttm_resource. it's giving "where the actual stuff lives" ๐Ÿ“
  • start โ€” the offset that needs to be subtracted from st so that sg_dma_address(st->sgl) - start == 0 for the iomap start. math girlies rise, this one's non-negotiable ๐Ÿงฎโœจ

๐Ÿ”ฅ RETURN ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Pointer to the embedded struct ttm_kmap_iter. that's it, that's the gift ๐ŸŽ

ngl bestie, if you're calling this you better have a real iomap and a real sg_table ready โ€” she's initializing, not fixing your life ๐Ÿ™ˆ
