dpni_set_tx_shaping(9)

💅 dpni_set_tx_shaping — the Kernel API Manual page your fave netdev bestie wrote for you

Hiii so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about dpni_set_tx_shaping(9) — like, setting the transmit shaping on a DPNI object. Yes queen, we're doing traffic shaping today. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

dpni_set_tx_shaping — Set the transmit shaping 🌸

---

🔥 SYNOPSIS 🔥

int dpni_set_tx_shaping (struct fsl_mc_io *mc_io , u32 cmd_flags , u16
token , const struct dpni_tx_shaping_cfg *tx_cr_shaper , const struct
dpni_tx_shaping_cfg *tx_er_shaper , int coupled );

It returns an int, bestie. That's the whole vibe. 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

Okay so here's the roster, and every single one of them matters:

• mc_io — Pointer to MC portal's I/O object. Like, the portal. The I/O object. You know the one. ✨
• cmd_flags — Command flags; one or more of 'MC_CMD_FLAG_'. Lowkey just pick your flags and go.
• token — Token of DPNI object. It's giving "your ticket to the DPNI show". 🎟️
• tx_cr_shaper — TX committed rate shaping configuration. The committed one. The main character one. 👑
• tx_er_shaper — TX excess rate shaping configuration. The excess one, also invited to the party.
• coupled — Committed and excess rate shapers are coupled. They're linked. They're a package deal. iykyk 💜

💀 RETURN 💀

Not me— the original page literally leaves this section empty. No return values listed. Nothing. Nada. The void. 🙈 So that's exactly what you get here too: nothing. I refuse to make up facts, bestie. Not today. ✋

Go shape that transmit traffic, bestie. Committed rate, excess rate, coupled or not — you've got the whole toolkit. ✨
