bnx2x_vlan_mac_del_all(9)

💅 bnx2x_vlan_mac_del_all — a deep dive from the Kernel API Manual

okay so bestie, welcome to the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink> ✨ and to bnx2x_vlan_mac_del_all(9) — yes that's the whooole name, we're not abbreviating, we're not being casual about it, this function is a whole entire vibe.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

bnx2x_vlan_mac_del_all — deletes elements that match the given vlan_mac_flags spec 🎀 like literally clears them out.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int bnx2x_vlan_mac_del_all (struct bnx2x *bp , struct bnx2x_vlan_mac_obj
* o , unsigned long *vlan_mac_flags , unsigned long *ramrod_flags );

it returns an int, bestie, and you're gonna wanna read the DESCRIPTION for what that int is actually giving 👀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• bp — device handle 💖 your whole lil device, right there in a pointer.
• o — vlan object info. the object itself, the main character 🌟
• vlan_mac_flags — vlan flags 🎀 the spec of which elements we're matching.
• ramrod_flags — execution flags to be used for this deletion 🔥 yeah, these are the flags that drive how the delete actually goes down.

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the return-value situation, no cap:

• if the last operation has completed successfully and there are no more elements left → you get a positive value 🎉
• if the last operation has completed successfully and there are more previously configured elements → also a positive value 🙈 (yes, both. that's just how it is, i don't make the rules)
• a negative value means the current operation has failed 💀

bestie pls note: the manpage says "positive" for both of the success cases — i'm not gonna invent a zero case for you, that's not in here, fr fr 🙅‍♀️

🌸 okay that's the whole page bestie, stream it, cite it, cite me 🫶 the source path got chopped in the footer (./drivers/net/ethernet/broadco...) and it's dated October 2026 — so yes, this manpage is from the future, iconic behavior only 👑✨💅
