i40e_clean_xdp_tx_irq(9)

💜 i40e_clean_xdp_tx_irq — bestie's guide to the i40e XDP cleanup moment

okay so real talk, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's about one tiny little function that does a very specific job in the Intel i40e driver. ngl it's short, but every word here matters, so let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_clean_xdp_tx_irq — the baddie that completes AF_XDP entries, and cleans XDP entries. yes, both. she multitasks 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool i40e_clean_xdp_tx_irq (struct i40e_vsi *vsi , struct i40e_ring
*tx_ring );

that's it, that's the whole signature. returns a bool, takes two pointers, absolutely iconic of her ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vsi — the Current VSI. like, the VSI you're working with right now, bestie 💖
• tx_ring — the XDP Tx ring. this is the ring getting the cleanup treatment 🧚

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the whole vibe of this function: it does its cleanup/transmission thing, and then it returns true if cleanup/transmission is done. that's the whole deal. no cap 🫶

lowkey the shortest DESCRIPTION section ever, but we respect the efficiency. main character energy, minimal words 🔥
