i40e_aq_get_cee_dcb_config(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 i40e_aq_get_cee_dcb_config — like, the whole page, bestie

Ok so real talk: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's about one extremely specific little function. Grab a matcha 🍓, we're doing this.

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_aq_get_cee_dcb_config — and that's literally the whole name section, no notes. The original page leaves the description blank too, so I'm not gonna make one up. Iconic of it, honestly. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int i40e_aq_get_cee_dcb_config (struct i40e_hw *hw , void *buff , u16
buff_size , struct i40e_asq_cmd_details *cmd_details );

That's the whole signature, character for character, don't come for me. 🫶

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

Ok so there are four of these and each one matters, so pay attention bestie:

  • hw — pointer to the hw struct. Yeah. The hardware struct. It's giving "this is the main character." 👑
  • buff — the response buffer, and its whole job is to store the CEE operational configuration. So that's where the good stuff lands. 🎀
  • buff_size — the size of the buffer you passed in. Please actually get this right, I'm begging. 🙈
  • cmd_details — pointer to the command details structure, or NULL. Your call, no pressure. 🦋

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Get CEE DCBX mode operational configuration from firmware.

That's it. That's the whole description. Short, sweet, ate, left no crumbs. 💀✨

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

Ok bestie, buckle up, this is the long part and I am not skipping a single one of these — copy-pasted straight from the source file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_common.c, every last one:

Yeah, that's a hundred and twenty-one cross-references. The i40e driver really said "let me introduce you to my entire friend group." 😭 No cap, every single one is here. 💜

ok and that's the whole page!! 🫶✨

This lil beauty came out of ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, stamped October 2026, and it lives in the Kernel API Manual — i40e_aq_get_cee_dcb_config(9) forever and always. Go get your CEE DCBX operational config from firmware, bestie, you got this 💖🎀🌈
