🎀 ad_update_actor_keys(9) — Kernel API Manual 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ad_update_actor_keys — updates the oper / admin keys for a port based on its current speed and duplex settings. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

Bestie, here's the signature, exactly as it is:

void ad_update_actor_keys (struct port *port , bool reset );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• port — the port we'are looking at 👀
• reset — Boolean to just reset the speed and the duplex part of the key 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so the logic to change the oper / admin keys is: (a) A full duplex port can participate in LACP with partner. (b) When the speed is changed, LACP need to be reinitiated. Periodt. 💅
