arc_emac_stats(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie 💖 welcome to the arc_emac_stats(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — we're doing kernel networking statistics today and it's lowkey iconic. This is the function that hands you the system network statistics address, and yes, every detail is staying, no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

arc_emac_stats — Get system network statistics. That's the whole name, bestie; it's giving "stats girlie" and we love that for us. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the exact signature, character for character 🫶:

struct net_device_stats * arc_emac_stats (struct net_device *ndev );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • ndev — pointer to the net_device structure. That's it. That's the argument. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it actually do? It returns the address of the device statistics structure — literally, that's the vibe. 📊

and the statistics are updated in the interrupt handler, so that's where the magic happens. 🔥
