🌸 e1000_alloc_...o_rx_buffers (9) — Kernel API Manual 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page literally titled e1000_alloc_...o_rx_buffers(9) in the Kernel API Manual — yes the ellipsis is really in the name, that's not me being lazy, that's just how it's printed 💅

✨ NAME ✨

e1000_alloc_jumbo_rx_buffers — the girlboss function that replaces used jumbo receive buffers 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void e1000_alloc_jumbo_rx_buffers (struct e1000_ring *rx_ring , int
cleaned_count , gfp_t gfp );

that's the whole signature, no cap — it returns void, so it gives you absolutely nothing back except fresh buffers and good vibes ✨

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • rx_ring — the Rx descriptor ring 🌀 like, the actual ring we're doing all this for, main character energy fr
  • cleaned_count — number of buffers to allocate this pass 🔢 so, the count of buffers we're re-filling in this one go, iykyk
  • gfp — flags for allocation 🌱 the allocation flags, handed straight to the allocator — respect them
