UNION NPS_PKT_SLC_CNTS(9)

💖 union nps_pkt_slc_cnts(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ today's main character is union nps_pkt_slc_cnts — the Solicited Packet Out Count Registers. yes it's a union, yes it's about counting packets going out, and yes we're gonna get through this together 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole vibe, copy-pasted straight from the source because I would never mess with your bitfields:

union nps_pkt_slc_cnts {
    u64 value;
    struct {
  #if defined(__BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD);
      u64 slc_int : 1;
      u64 uns_int : 1;
      u64 in_int : 1;
      u64 mbox_int : 1;
      u64 resend : 1;
      u64 raz : 5;
      u64 timer : 22;
      u64 cnt : 32;
  #else;
      u64 cnt : 32;
      u64 timer : 22;
      u64 raz : 5;
      u64 resend : 1;
      u64 mbox_int : 1;
      u64 in_int : 1;
      u64 uns_int : 1;
      u64 slc_int : 1;
  #endif;
    } s;
};

so you've got u64 value; — the whole 64-bit blob, iconic — and then a struct of bitfields living inside s. 🦋

the way this works is very endian-sensitive, and honestly it ate: the #if defined(__BIG_ENDIAN_BITFIELD); branch puts the little 1-bit flags up top (slc_int, uns_int, in_int, mbox_int, resend), then raz : 5, then timer : 22, then cnt : 32 at the bottom. the #else; branch is the exact mirror image — same fields, reverse order, cnt : 32 first and slc_int : 1 last. ⭐

and that #endif; — yes bestie, those semicolons are really there. not me questioning it, we just copy what the header says 💅

🫶 Members 🫶

okay so the Members section is literally empty in this page 😭 like, nothing. blank. a whole heading with no content, main character energy with no dialogue. so if you were hoping for a cute little field-by-field gloss, this manpage is not giving it — the bitfields are all up there in the SYNOPSIS and that's what we've got. 🙈

bestie reminder: endianness is not a personality trait but it will ruin your day if you forget which branch you're compiling. congrats, you now know more about packet-out count registers than 99% of people. periodt 💀
