📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 i40e_cee_to_dcb_v1_config — the kernel API manual, bestie edition ✨

Okay so you found yourself staring at i40e_cee_to_dcb_v1_config(9) from the Kernel API Manual and you're like "what is this even." Bestie, same, but also — it's actually a whole vibe once you get it. Sit down, grab a strawberry drink 🍓, and let's get into it.

🌸 NAME 🌸

i40e_cee_to_dcb_v1_config — no cap, that's the name, that's the whole name section, and honestly it's giving "mysterious main character who doesn't need to introduce herself" 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void i40e_cee_to_dcb_v1_config (struct i40e_aqc_get_cee_dcb_cfg_v1_resp
       *cee_cfg , struct i40e_dcbx_config *dcbcfg );

Notice the void — she returns nothing, she just does the thing and leaves. Iconic. 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • cee_cfg — pointer to the CEE v1 response configuration struct. Like, this is your source material, the tea being translated. 🫖
  • dcbcfg — the DCB configuration struct. This is where the translated goodness lands.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Convert CEE v1 configuration from firmware to DCB configuration. That's literally the whole job — firmware hands you a CEE v1 config, and this little function translates it into DCB config. Lowkey a translator for two protocols that refuse to speak the same language. 🌈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

The kernel file lives at ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_dcb.c — that's the mothership, go visit her. 🏠 And here's the whole friend group, all of them tagged (9) like it's a group chat where everyone has the same nickname:

Like, that's a lot of siblings, but every single one is listed here, no one gets left out. 💖 (And yes, _i40e_read_lldp_cfg and i40e_read_lldp_cfg are two different entries — the underscore one is the shy sibling, don't mix them up. iykyk.)

No warnings, no exit statuses, no environment variables in this one — she's a straightforward little function and honestly? We stan a low-drama queen. 💅

Okay that's the whole page, bestie, you've been educated and blessed. 🧚 This lil' drop came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026, and it's filed under i40e_cee_to_dcb_v1_config(9) — mwah, go read the source, ily, bye! 💜🎀🦋
