πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ e1000_clear_hw_cntrs_80003es2lan ✨

okay so bestie, gather round, because this one is a lil function from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, iykyk) and honestly it's giving "small but mighty" πŸ’… it's a void function, meaning it does its thing and gives you nothing back, and that is literally the point β€” its whole job is a side effect πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void e1000_clear_hw_cntrs_80003es2lan (struct e1000_hw *hw );

yeah that's the whole signature, no cap πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • hw β€” pointer to the HW structure. that's it, that's the one (1) argument, and it's your little handle to the hardware, so treat it nice 🫢

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does it actually do? it clears the hardware counters by reading the counter registers. that's the whole vibe β€” reading them is what resets them, which is lowkey iconic behaviour for a register 🧚 no writing, no magic, just read and the counters go bye-bye ✨

that's literally the entire description and honestly? slay, a function that knows exactly what it is πŸ‘‘


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this is the part where the manpage goes absolutely feral with the cross-references, so buckle up bestie, we're listing all of them πŸ’€ starting with the file itself:

Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/80003es2lan.c

and then the whole friend group:

like, that's thirty of them, not me counting, but also me counting 😭 the 80003es2lan girlies really showed up for this one πŸ‘‘


ngl the header of this page is literally e1000_clear_..._80003es2lan(9) with the ellipsis and everything β€” truncation is that girl's whole aesthetic πŸ’…

and that's the page!! sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e..., dated October 2026 β€” mwah, kiss kiss, go read your counters, bestie πŸ“πŸ’œ
