💅 fcoe_ctlr_vlan_send(9)

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is fcoe_ctlr_vlan_send — the FCoE controller's own personal hype-woman whose entire job is sending a FIP VLAN Notification. that's it. that's the gig. she shows up, she announces, she leaves. main character energy but make it a function call 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

fcoe_ctlr_vlan_send — Send a FIP VLAN Notification 💌

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void fcoe_ctlr_vlan_send (struct fcoe_ctlr *fip , enum fip_vlan_subcode
sub , const u8 *dest );

literally just three little parameters and a dream, no cap ✨

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • fip — The FCoE controller 💖 like. the whole point. your controller bestie that's doing the sending.
  • sub — sub-opcode for vlan notification or vn2vn vlan notification 🫶 so basically she has two moods and you gotta tell her which one.
  • dest — The destination Ethernet MAC address 📬 where the notification is headed. the addressee. the lucky recipient.
not me obsessing over a function that takes three args and doesn't even return anything (void, queen of giving nothing back 💀). honestly? iconic.

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

so this is the part where the manpage just. goes off. it's a whole group chat of kernel functions and siblings, and yes we're listing every single one because nobody gets left on read 💖

Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe_ctlr.c, plus the entire fam:

like?? the way this list ate and left zero crumbs 🔥 read them all, iykyk.

and that's the whole page bestie!! sourced straight from ./drivers/scsi/fcoe, dated October 2026, and she's filed under fcoe_ctlr_vlan_send(9) — periodt 💅✨🦋
