call_netdev...tifiers_info(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for call_netdevice_notifiers_info — the header shortens it to call_netdev...tifiers_info(9) because apparently even manpages need a lil nickname. 💅✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

call_netdevice_notifiers_info — call all network notifier blocks. That’s the whole assignment, no cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int call_netdevice_notifiers_info (unsigned long val , struct
       netdev_notifier_info *info );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• val — value passed unmodified to notifier function. Straight through, no edits, no vibe-based filtering. 😌
• info — notifier information data. That’s the info, bestie. 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Call all network notifier blocks. Parameters and return value are as for raw_notifier_call_chain. That’s literally the tea. 🫖
