__nfp_eth_set_rxpause(9)

✨ __nfp_eth_set_rxpause — kernel API manual energy ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for __nfp_eth_set_rxpause, and no cap this one is short and sweet but it's still doing important work 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

__nfp_eth_set_rxpause — set rx pause control bit

literally that's the whole gig. it sets the bit. it's giving "small function, big responsibility" 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int __nfp_eth_set_rxpause (struct nfp_nsp *nsp , unsigned int rx_pause
);

yes the signature really does wrap like that, she's a little dramatic but we love her 🫶

---

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

• nsp — the NFP NSP handle, which you get back from nfp_eth_config_start. like, please don't just make one up, get it from the function, iykyk 😭
• rx_pause — the RX pause switch. this is the thing you're flipping, bestie.

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Set RX pause switch.

that's it. that's the description. she's concise, she's iconic, she ate and left no crumbs 👑

fr fr though — if you were looking for a ten-paragraph lore dump, this is not that page. it sets the switch. periodt.

---

👑 RETURN 👑

Returns 0 or -ERRNO.

so: 0 means slay, and anything negative-ish in the -ERRNO family means it did not slay, and you should go read the errno and figure out what happened 🙈
