✨ fm10k_queue_vlan_request ✨

okay bestie so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual for fm10k_queue_vlan_request(9) and it is literally the most efficient little VLAN-request-queuing baddie you will ever meet 💅 like it does one thing and it does it flawlessly, we love a focused queen 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

fm10k_queue_vlan_request — queue a VLAN update request ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int fm10k_queue_vlan_request (struct fm10k_intfc *interface , u32 vid ,
u8 vsi , bool set );

no cap, that's the whole signature 👑 four args, one int back, slay.

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• interface — the fm10k interface structure 💖 like, the main character struct you're working with
• vid — the VLAN vid 🏷️
• vsi — VSI index number 🔢
• set — whether to set or clear 🌈 like a little yes/no vibe check on the operation

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so this function queues up a VLAN update, periodt ✨

for VFs, this has to be sent to the managing PF over the mailbox 📬 like you cannot skip the mailbox, that's the whole route, iykyk.

for PFs, we'll use the same handling so that it's similar to the VF 🫶 — same vibe, same path, consistency is iconic.

and why tho? because this avoids storming the PF<->VF mailbox with too many VLAN updates during reset 😭💀 like imagine the mailbox just getting absolutely flooded during a reset, that's giving chaos, that's giving overwhelmed, and we are simply not doing that. this keeps it chill 🧚

ngl the whole point of routing both VF and PF through the same handling is that reset-time mailbox traffic stays calm instead of going full main-character meltdown 🙈
