okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this one's a section 9 page β€” that's the kernel-functions zone, iykyk β€” and it's all about our girl e1000e_update_mc_addr_list_generic. buckle up πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

e1000e_update_mc_addr_list_generic β€” Update Multicast addresses ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void e1000e_update_mc_addr_list_generic (struct e1000_hw *hw , u8
*mc_addr_list , u32 mc_addr_count );

no cap, that's the whole signature, character for character 🫢


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • hw β€” pointer to the HW structure πŸ’– literally just your hardware handle, she's the main character here
  • mc_addr_list β€” array of multicast addresses to program 🌈 the guest list, fr fr
  • mc_addr_count β€” number of multicast addresses to program πŸ”₯ how many names are on that list

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

Updates entire Multicast Table Array. The caller must have a packed mc_addr_list of multicast addresses. 🫢

that's it, that's the whole vibe β€” she goes in and refreshes the whole table, not just a lil piece of it. and the caller (that's you, bestie πŸ™ˆ) has to hand over a properly packed mc_addr_list of multicast addresses. not loosely packed, not "eh good enough" packed β€” packed packed. the way that this is a requirement and not a suggestion 😭


⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

like, that is a whole friend group of e1000e functions and every single one of them made the list πŸ’œ go read them, they're iconic πŸ‘‘


and that's the page!! 🧚 this lil gem comes from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e..., dated October 2026 β€” screenshot it, cite it, love it πŸ’– mwah, go program some multicast addresses bestie 🌸
