💅 e1000_consume_page — Kernel API Manual moment 🎀

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is e1000_consume_page. yes it's a (9) page. yes that means kernel API. no we're not scared. 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

e1000_consume_page — a lil helper function for the jumbo Rx path 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void e1000_consume_page (struct e1000_rx_buffer *bi , struct sk_buff
*skb , u16 length );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• bi — the software descriptor shadow data. that's the vibe, that's her whole job 💅
• skb — the skb that's being modified. she's getting a glow-up, not a rewrite ✨
• length — how much data is being added. the actual number. the receipts. 🔥
