xemaclite_aligned_write(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 xemaclite_aligned_write — the kernel API manual, but make it make sense 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to xemaclite_aligned_write(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil function with a big job and honestly? she's iconic for it. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

xemaclite_aligned_write — literally the function that writes from a 16-bit aligned address to a 32-bit aligned address 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void xemaclite_aligned_write (const void *src_ptr , u32 *dest_ptr ,
       unsigned int length );

like… that's the whole signature. she's not complicated, she just knows what she wants 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • src_ptr — a Void pointer to the 16-bit aligned source address 👑 (yes, Void with a capital V, that's how the page says it, not me)
  • dest_ptr — pointer to the 32-bit aligned destination address 📍
  • length — how many bytes to write from source to destination, fr fr 🍓

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does she do? she writes data from a 16-bit aligned buffer to a 32-bit aligned address in the EmacLite device. that's it. that's the whole vibe check and she passed 🌈

lowkey the whole personality of this function is "alignment goes in, alignment comes out" — 16-bit on one side, 32-bit on the other, EmacLite device in the middle 😭💀

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

bestie the friend group is LARGE, so buckle up 🧚 the kernel file lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx/xilinx_emaclite.c, and here's everyone she's linked with:

like, she knows everybody. main character energy honestly 👑

and that's the page, bestie 🌸💜 this lil drop came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/xilinx, dated October 2026, and it's forever filed under xemaclite_aligned_write(9) — mwah, stan her, she ate 💅✨
