i40e_client_request_reset(9)

💅 i40e_client_request_reset(9) 💅

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes we're in kernel land now, put your hair up 🎀 — and it's all about one little function called i40e_client_request_reset.

✨ NAME ✨

i40e_client_request_reset — and honestly? the original page gives us literally nothing after the dash. no description, no tagline, just a vibe and a dangling hyphen 😭 so I'm not gonna invent one for you. the name is the name, the rest is a mystery, and we respect that 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void i40e_client_request_reset (struct i40e_info *ldev , struct
i40e_client *client , u32 reset_level );

notice it returns void — so don't go looking for a return value, she gives you nothing back, she's mysterious like that 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ldev — pointer to L2 context. that's it, that's the whole description. she's a pointer to the L2 context, icon behavior, we stan a concise queen 👑
• client — Client pointer. capital C Client, very official, very main character ✨
• reset_level — the reset level. no further notes, no range, no units — the manpage simply does not elaborate and neither will I 🙈

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay this is the part where the page pops off — she has so many friends, it's giving k-pop group chat, and you should fr fr go read all of them:

bestie note 💖 — the page doesn't tell us anything about what any of these do, so I'm not gonna guess. go read them yourself, iykyk 🌈

and that's the whole page, no cap 💀 no description, no return values, no errors, no bugs section — just arguments, a source file, and a dream ⭐

sign-off time 🎀 — this vibe came to you from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e, dated October 2026. yes, October 2026, she's from the future and she's still slaying 🦋💜 periodt.
