okay bestie, quick context before we dive in: this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's the manual page for i40e_aq_get_set_rss_lut. Yes that's a mouthful. Yes you're gonna say it out loud once and then just call it "the RSS lut thing." We move.


🌸 NAME 🌸

i40e_aq_get_set_rss_lut β€”

ngl the original page literally leaves the description part of the NAME line blank. nothing after the dash. empty. so we're not gonna make something up and pretend it was there. that's the whole NAME section, bestie. iconic minimalism, honestly.

pf_lut , u8 *lut , u16 lut_size , bool set );
