__libeth_xdp_tx_flush_bulk(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 __libeth_xdp_tx_flush_bulk — NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is __libeth_xdp_tx_flush_bulk — the internal helper to flush one XDP Tx bulk 🦋 (and yes, she's from the Kernel API Manual, we're in kernel-land now, respect it 💜)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool __libeth_xdp_tx_flush_bulk (struct libeth_xdp_tx_bulk *bq , u32
flags , u32 (*prep)(void *xdpsq, struct libeth_xdpsq *sq) , struct
libeth_xdp_tx_desc (*fill)(struct libeth_xdp_tx_frame frm, u32 i, const
struct libeth_xdpsq *sq, u64 priv) , void (*xmit)(struct
libeth_xdp_tx_desc desc, u32 i, const struct libeth_xdpsq *sq, u64 priv)
);

like, it returns a bool and takes five things, and three of them are function pointers 😭 she's highkey a whole vibe.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • bq — the bulk to flush. this is the main character, the one getting flushed 💅
  • flags — XDP TX flags (.ndo_xdp_xmit, XSk etc.). literally the flags, no cap.
  • prep — driver-specific callback to prepare the queue for sending. like getting ready before you go out, but for a queue 🪞
  • fill — libeth_xdp callback to fill libeth_sqe and libeth_xdp_tx_desc. she does the filling ✨
  • xmit — driver callback to fill a HW descriptor. the final send-off, periodt 🔥

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what is she? __libeth_xdp_tx_flush_bulk is an internal abstraction to create bulk flush functions for drivers 👑 — think of her as the blueprint bestie that drivers use to build their own flush functions.

She's used for everything except XSk xmit. that's the one party she doesn't go to 🙈

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • true — if anything was sent 💖
  • false — otherwise 🫶

that's it. that's the whole vibe check.

(and yeah, enum (anonymous)(9) shows up twice — that's not me being messy, that's literally the list 💀🔥)

ngl bestie, this one's internal — it's a helper for drivers, not something you call from your cute little userspace program. iykyk 💅

that's the whole page, bestie — mwah 🫶 this one's from ./include/net/libeth, dated October 2026, and she slayed the entire time 👑✨💖
