bond_3ad_update_lacp_active(9)

💅 bond_3ad_update_lacp_active — the Kernel API manual, bestie edition

okay so we're deep in the kernel docs folder, specifically the <pink>bonding</pink> corner of it, and this is the page for bond_3ad_update_lacp_active(9). yes the name is a mouthful. no we are not shortening it. it's giving "my function name is a whole sentence" energy and honestly? iconic. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

bond_3ad_update_lacp_active — literally just: change the lacp active. that's the whole vibe. that's the assignment. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void bond_3ad_update_lacp_active (struct bonding *bond );

no return value, it's a void, she does her thing and leaves. periodt. ⭐

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• bond — the bonding struct. yeah. that's it. that's the argument. one (1) whole bonding struct and she's set. 🫶

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so what does she actually do? she updates actor_oper_port_state when lacp_active is modified. that's the tea. ☕

like — somebody changed lacp_active, and this function is the one that goes "okay bet, let me sync up actor_oper_port_state so everything stays matching." lowkey vital. highkey underappreciated. no cap. 🔥

fr fr this is one of those tiny glue functions that keeps the 3ad state machine from having a whole crisis, so don't sleep on it. ✨

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

the whole friend group, in kernel file ./drivers/net/bonding/bond_3ad.c. yes there are a LOT of them. no we are not leaving any out. main character energy is a group effort bestie 🌈
