dpni_get_max_frame_length(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay so this is dpni_get_max_frame_length(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it does exactly what it says on the tin, bestie: Get the maximum received frame length. No cap. It's giving "one tiny getter, very important networking vibes."

πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

This is the exact signature, character for character β€” do not touch the punctuation:

int dpni_get_max_frame_length (struct fsl_mc_io *mc_io , u32 cmd_flags ,
u16 token , u16 *max_frame_length );

πŸ’… ARGUMENTS πŸ’…

Here's the cast of characters, bestie:

  • mc_io β€” Pointer to MC portal's I/O object. That's the MC portal I/O object pointer, exactly as advertised.
  • cmd_flags β€” Command flags; one or more of 'MC_CMD_FLAG_'. Flags are flags, periodt.
  • token β€” Token of DPNI object. You need the token, bestie.
  • max_frame_length β€” Maximum received frame length (in bytes); frame is discarded if its length exceeds this value. So if it's over the limit, it gets discarded β€” that's the rule.

🌸 RETURN 🌸

No return description is listed on this page, bestie. The synopsis says the function is int, but the RETURN section here is literally empty β€” I'm not gonna invent semantics for you.
