Fields

dbf_type: Option<LinkDbfType>

DBF type the remote value maps to (pvaGetDBFtype). A connected link always reports a type — an unmappable value shape falls back to Long, the default: arm of pvxs pvaGetDBFtype (pvxs/ioc/pvalink_lset.cpp:199-236). None therefore means “not connected” (no cached value), never “connected but unmappable”.

element_count: Option<i64>

Element count: array length, or 1 for a scalar / any connected non-array shape (pvaGetElements, pvxs/ioc/pvalink_lset.cpp:242-257). As with dbf_type, None means “not connected”.

graphic_limits: Option<(f64, f64)>

display.limitLow / display.limitHigh (pvaGetGraphicLimits).

control_limits: Option<(f64, f64)>

control.limitLow / control.limitHigh (pvaGetControlLimits).

alarm_limits: Option<(f64, f64, f64, f64)>

valueAlarm.{lowAlarmLimit,lowWarningLimit,highWarningLimit, highAlarmLimit} as (lolo, lo, hi, hihi) (pvaGetAlarmLimits).

precision: Option<i16>

display.precision (pvaGetPrecision).

units: Option<String>

display.units (pvaGetUnits).

description: Option<String>

display.description — carried so a link snapshot is complete; pvxs exposes it through the same fld_meta cache.

enum_choices: Option<Vec<String>>

ENUM state labels of the remote channel, when it has any. The label table a DBR_STRING-requesting reader (stringin/lsi INP, printf %s) renders a remote enum index through — C dbCa keeps a second DBR_STRING monitor (pgetString) for that read; here the labels ride the same attribute fetch as the limits (CA: DBR_CTRL_ENUM).
