i40e_aq_set_...misc_on_vlan(9)

💅 i40e_aq_set_...misc_on_vlan(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's one of those tiny little corner-of-the-driver pages 🦋 — the kind that only exists so one function has somewhere to live. very demure, very mindful.

🌸 NAME 🌸

i40e_aq_set_vsi_uc_promisc_on_vlan — and that's it. That's the whole NAME section. no description, no little tagline, no nothing 😭 she said "my name is enough." honestly? iconic. the actual function hanging out in here is i40e_aq_set_vsi_uc_promisc_on_vlan, and the page title is the shortened i40e_aq_set_...misc_on_vlan. don't ask, it's a manpage thing 💀

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

int i40e_aq_set_vsi_uc_promisc_on_vlan (struct i40e_hw *hw , u16 seid ,
bool enable , u16 vid , struct i40e_asq_cmd_details *cmd_details );

that's the whole vibe check: takes five things, hands you back an int. no cap. 🫶

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• hw — pointer to the hw struct 💖 this is the hardware struct, she's the main character, everything else is basically just visiting her house.
• seid — vsi number. it's a u16, it identifies which VSI we're talking about, and yes bestie the name really is just "seid," we don't get extra lore here 😌
• enable — set MAC L2 layer unicast promiscuous enable/disable for a given VLAN. it's a bool, so it's a straight up on/off situation: flip it one way to turn it on, the other way to turn it off, for the VLAN you're pointing at. lowkey the whole point of the function ✨
• vid — The VLAN tag filter — capture any unicast packet with this VLAN tag 🔥 that's the literal deal, she's a filter, matching unicast packets by their VLAN tag.
• cmd_details — pointer to command details structure or NULL. so yeah, you can hand her a real details struct, or you can hit her with the NULL and she'll cope 🙈
