πΈ e1000_setup_rx_resources π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β section 9, kernel dev territory, and this little icon is all about getting your receive-side act together β¨. Grab a strawberry π, sit down, and let's get into it.
β¨ NAME β¨
e1000_setup_rx_resources β allocate Rx resources (Descriptors) π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
int e1000_setup_rx_resources (struct e1000_adapter *adapter , struct
e1000_rx_ring *rxdr );
π ARGUMENTS π
adapterβ the board private structure. yeah, the whole vibe of the nic lives in here πrxdrβ the rx descriptor ring (for a specific queue) that we're setting up. literally one queue's worth of ring energy π
π DESCRIPTION π
Returns 0 on success, negative on failure. that's it, that's the whole thing β no cap π. success gets you a happy little 0, and if it goes sideways you get a negative number back. periodt π
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
the kernel file lives right here, bestie β go read it, it's giving main character energy:
