__i40e_maybe_stop_tx(9) β¨
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the second-level vibe check for tx stop conditions. buckle up π
πΈ NAME πΈ
__i40e_maybe_stop_tx β the 2nd level check for tx stop conditions, no cap
β SYNOPSIS β
int __i40e_maybe_stop_tx (struct i40e_ring *tx_ring , int size );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
tx_ringβ the ring we're checking, bestie. that's the one under the microscope πsizeβ the size of the buffer we want to be absolutely sure we have available π
π DESCRIPTION π
so basically it returns -EBUSY if a stop is needed, else 0. that's it, that's the whole personality β¨ periodt.
fr fr, that's the entire description. she's short, she's iconic, she ate π
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
lowkey a whole friend group in here, so let's give them all their shoutout π the kernel file in question is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_txrx.c, and then:
