✨ hinic_hwdev_msix_cnt_set ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the hinic_hwdev_msix_cnt_set(9) page πŸ’… this is a kernel API manual (that's the manual name, iykyk β€” it's living in section 9 with all the other kernel-API girlies), and it's literally about clearing message attribute counters for an msix entry. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int hinic_hwdev_msix_cnt_set (struct hinic_hwdev *hwdev , u16 msix_index );

like, that's the whole signature. two args, one int coming back at you. no cap 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • hwdev β€” the NIC HW device πŸ’– like, the actual hardware device struct you're handing over. she's the main character here.
  • msix_index β€” msix_index ✨ yes bestie, the parameter is literally just named after itself. the msix index. that's it. that's the whole description. iconic honestly.

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

okay so here's the tea: it returns 0 for Success, and a negative value for Failure. that's it. that's the description. short and honest, we love a low-effort legend 🧚

⚠️ heads up: negative means it did not slay. don't go treating a negative return like a success, fr fr 😭
